It was the shrimp’s season a couple of months ago. The seaside would be loaded with shrimps waiting to be netted. The shrimp is a local delicacy and it’s often fermented and be made into belacan, an ingredient used in delicious local dishes.

Shrimps selling like hot cakes. 3 kilo for RM10.

These were the not-so-fresh shrimps. They could spot the difference by comparing with the newly arrived shrimps. The color were a bit faded compared to the fresh ones.

This is not a deep sea monster fish. It’s a kind of fish with really soft and slimy body. Best cooked as soup, or deep fried. It’s sweet in taste and their bones are actually soft enough for you to chew and be consumed.

The tide at Kuala Baram beach is getting higher year after year. The effect of global warming and the rising sea level. Driving along the Kuala Baram highway, you could actually feel that the sea water is rushing onto the roads. Thus, the rock divider, as pictured above.

Just witnessed a freak accident yesterday night right at the Lutong traffic light junction. An oncoming car from Miri City’s direction drove into the wrong way and bumped right into the car ahead of us.

The red line shows how the car moves from its supposedly correct direction, to the other side, and bumped into the Wira in front of us.

The driver was so furious that he came out and pulled the culprit driver out for a tussle.

This is another shot from the opposite angle. Clearly shows the incident.

Fortunately, the driver was not speeding, and it was just a minor collision. But I don’t understand how did he manage to take the wrong direction and went into the wrong road.

Not very clear, but at least you know, it’s there.

This is the drink of the day. Nestle’s Bliss Yogurt Drink - Guava flavored. I’m a big fan of guava myself, especially when dipped in sour plum powder. But I’ve never tried yogurt with guava dipped in before. I happen to pass by GK Mini Market at Pujut 3 tonight, I saw this and bought it back home.

Bliss Yogurt Drink from Nestle. Good for your digestive system.

with Live Cultures, and guava flavored!

Price? RM5.50 at GK Mini Market, Miri. A lil’ bit expensive, but, drinking it once in a blue moon won’t hurt the wallet too much. 久久一次, taste even better!

The taste? Tasted like guava juice with a hint of yogurt. Simple as that.

Alright, good night everyone!
