A Big Bowl Of Something!: Historical Day Out:)

Yesterday was a blast! Pn.Janaky invited Adeline, Kavi and Me to tag along on their English Society trip. We did, with pleasure! Museum Negara was up first. I have to say, it's not at big as I had pictured it but it sure was fun. We went into the first Gallery which was dedicated to the pre-historic ages.

Skull!

We also saw 'Perak Man'. We learned about him in History. He was found somewhere in a cave somewhere in Perak. Of course, all that's left of him is bones but still, to see him (no matter how bony) was just surreal. After pre-history, we moved on to not so ancient history. Tanah Melayu before Independence. We saw Portuguese military uniforms, British weapons and even a Nippon-Go Dictionary from the Japanese invasion.

A bicycle used by the Japanese to invade us.

Cannon balls!

We also saw some old things (I have a thing for old stuff!)

The 'ayam jantan' money. People used to use rings and animals made out of tin as currency.

Old fashioned Smith Corona Type writer

.Radio.

Awesomely ancient kerosene lamp

even older-fashioned type writer

After that, we went to the snake exhibition. It was fantastic. There was a women in a glass room, and there were snake everywhere. There was a TV and computer for her to use if she got bored. We also saw a huge anaconda-like snake. Itwas even bigger than Kavi. There were Burmese Pythons and Boa Constrictors everywhere. After the snake exhibition, we stopped by the pet shop to look around.

Grey Male Persian Cat

Adorable!

Reminds me of Puss-In-Boots:)

We saw spiders feasting on a fly (never thought I'd see that!), a raccoon hanging upside down from his cage, kangaroos eating and apple, and even some really green frogs! (I love Frogs!)

After that, we headed towards the bus to go to the Bird Park. On the way to the bus, we met this really nice man who was working with wire to make some really beautiful art. He made me a keychain of my name. He did it so fast. THANKS UNCLE!
