The bell tower at the national mosque.
Next up was
Penang where I did a tour around the island that included temples, a batik shop and a fruit
market. The claim to fame for the reclining Buda below is that it's said to be the 4th largest in the world.
Applying the wax with iron 'stamps' that are dipped into the hot wax then imprinted on the material.
Free-hand application of a design. Once the wax design is completed, the material is stretched tightly on a rack and the painting process begins (yes, I know I don't have these in sequence).
Fresh cloves - ready to be dried and grated into your eggnog.
Today I was in Langkawi, a small island in the midst of many
other small islands. I did a boat trip
around the islands – a nice day that started with a sunrise lunar eclipse. I tried taking a photo of the eclipse, but
the camera (and my eyes) would only see it if viewed through the special
glasses. Not the best, but here you go Harry.
