The Day I Let Them Go

On the day of Mid Autumn, dad, mum and I went up to Genting Highlands to release the pair of tortoises that have been with us for the past 9 years. I remember I bought them for a mere RM1.50 each and have changed 5 containers just to accommodate their fast-growing size.

Before leaving home...

We left home pretty early, around 8am. It was pouring heavily once we reached there. If it was gloomy, the weather it just perfectly nice :) We had a quick breakfast before proceeding to Chin Swee Temple.

Saturday morning...

Sunlight pun tarak? (Sunlight also don't have?)
Chin Swee Temple
Some treats for my pair as a final send-off

Parents went for prayers while I played around with the camera (forgive my skills, only my first day of trying :)

Holy water for RM5?? I thought it supposed to be FOC?? :D

Kinda like this shot :)
Haiyaa... They looked terrified!

First model of the day :D

And then, it's time to set them free...

Unfamiliar territory

Jom makan (Come, let's eat)

Malu-malu (Shy-shy)

Ni pun sama (This also the same)

Minutes later...

Keep swimming, keep swimming, keep swimming swimming swimming...

Still the same. However, once it got into the water, he didn't know how to swim =.= So, I guess he's at the bottom of the pond. Hope he'll be alright...

Fast in making new friends and getting used to the environment, proud of you :)

Went back to KL an hour later. A short period in Genting left a huge memory in me - The day I let them go...

I'll visit you guys hopefully 1-2 months once? :) Just to check on you guys. Hopefully, I can recognize you two.
(Damn I forgotten to give them a mark on their shell, my bad... =.=)
