Half Day Trip to Kuala Kurau - 14 June 2009

We went to Kuala Kurau in Perak, to attend relative's wedding dinner, with the family of my hubby's sister. Kuala Kurau is "kampung" of my mother-in-law.
It is about one hour drive from Penang.


See the beautiful scenery of the village.

Can't believe that my lousy camera can catch such a beautiful scenery.

There is a long wooden bridge that link every house together. You can walk from one house to another by this bridge in front of the houses.

The bridge is aging, feel very insecure when walk on the bridge. But the villagers already used to walk on it, they can even run on the bridge.


Almost every house here got their own boat. For years ago, the boat is the only transportation for the villagers. Now there is a road built so that the usage of boat is reducing.










Drying of small prawn.



Shell of cockle.



Most of the houses got a toilet outside the house, on the bridge that link all houses together. The toilet is super smelly!! Wanna see inside?


It is just a hole inside the toilet, all the "things" will out from the hole into the river.
Yiakkkkkkkkkk, do you dare to swim in the river??



This is the famous food in Kuala Kurau, called "si-a-ci" in Hokkien,
it is fried prawn mixed with vege.
(Weird I introduce foods after the toilet picture!!)
