At first we didn't know what these were. Then the smell
gave them away. They are little balls of solidified rubber.
Some rubber making paraphernalia at the back
Ice cold water piped from the hill. Reminded me of my
grandmother's house where we had a huge tank of water
just like this to collect water which was used for washing
and bathing. The bathroom is behind the wall on the left.
Water overflowing from the tank goes into an earthernware pot
before trickling over the ledge into the ground
Lowlying durian. Durians are not plucked but drop when they are ripe
so there is no fear of people stealing lowlying fruits.
Pastor Lawrence and Hooi waiting for the experts to open the durians
You have to use these little lidi brushes to get rid of
the leaves stuck to the durian thorns before you open them

Upon expert advice, we ate just enough before the 'law of diminishing returns' sets in. After that we went to Pulau Betong for Hokkien Mee.
Lunch turned out to be quite an excursion.
