ABC letter S: sportsman, Snakes and snake catcher
Song Lip lives in sunny Australia. One day, a snake visited his garage.
Song Lip is helping the snake catcher.
The snake catcher caught the snake, and took it away in a sack. She released it in the bush. This is for my save the world theme.

mondaymellowyellows: surfing
The water was cold in the Autumn Gold Coast. I didn't go for a swim. I prefer summer where one can do paddle surfing and don't have to get wet.

Photohunting: Glass
see the picnic basket with the red plate?
Katie's wedding was held at Sanctuary Cove, on the Gold Coast. There were a lot of glass, and my brother Joseph joked they were diamonds.
After the wedding service, the bridal party went down to the garden for their photo shoot. We were upstairs having drinks and snacks. I took these photos through the glass windows. I also wanted to record them enjoying the picnic Elizabeth and I made for them, and the drinks Henry, Kalang and Kee Yong bought.
If you can't see the picnic basket, it is glass window's fault.

ABC : Letter R for ribbon candy, report, remark, research, reply, read
Went to Harbour town on Surfers paradise, these ribbons are a child's paradise. For my save the world theme, it would be a nightmare for parents to drag a kid away without buying these.
Incidentally yesterday, a certain Mr. Roper made a comment on one of my blogs and remarked that I didn't research it and made a sweeping report. Unfortunately I could not reply his comment because he was not a blogger like you and me. He did however have a hyperlink and I wrote to the corporation. They denied he was an employee.
This is the essence of it, I post it just in case you like to read it.
Hi Maria,
Noted on this...

Dear Group STI,
A Mr. Buss Roper posted this comment below on my blog with a hyperlink to you, I presume he is an employee of yours.
I am bemused by his comment. No where in my post did I say, " that sugar leads to any disease, even obesity." On the contrary, my family is into growing sugar canes for part of the income."
If Mr. Roper had read carefully, he would have read that in Malaysia and Singapore, people consume a lot of fresh sugar cane juice. Once it was suspected that the canes were left standing on the market stall floor. The fibrous/porous cane sucked up the water and detergent when the cleaners cleaned the stalls in the evening. This practice is still done in Malaysia. In Singapore, this practice is stopped, and canes are cut into manageable lengths and left on the counter.
Mr Roper doesn't not allow me to direct my reply, so I am sending this to you.
Thanks,
Ann

Weekend Reflection: Houses of the rich.
When my younger brother Joseph was born,
It was the day the Kitchen God went up to Heaven.
The Kitchen God was rich and had plenty to eat.
Everyone has to be good to him,
For he reports to the Heavenly King,
All that the family had done for the year.
Joseph was our Little Kitchen God.
Joseph was born in a brick house.
Grandfather Chan said, "Joseph is going to be a rich man."
His prediction came true.
My first week in Australia,
I stayed with Joseph and Audrey.
The Little Kitchern had done good.
I took this photo standing on his private jetty.
The private lake and the private island were perfect for my theme.
