Crane Robot Show

Sentosa Island, Singapore I had to walk to the highest point of a mall to get to a station that would take me to Sentosa island. Stood in a line for quite while, staffed my self in the sky train, it was very crowded since this island is one of the most famous places in Singapore.   I was trying to keep my balance, held the metal holder tightly while my eyes looking through the window, admired the sophisticated view outside. Some buildings were aesthetically designed.   Some of them remind me of Gaudi’s works. A few steps from me Ai Lin was standing steadily on her feet without any holder. She is always balance.

Blahbatuh, Gianyar, Bali I left two friends of mine in the car and took their cameras with me. I pitied them because they couldn’t see what I would see in the Elephant Cave—the cave of God where Ganesha statue lies.  Before entering this temple, I had to have my ticket entrance and I had to wrap my under body with sarong. It took me awhile to do this because it was pretty long sarong for a little girl like me. The temple staff had no any smaller size. However, my will to see the cave put me to make more effort to deal with that long sarong. As I finished, I eagerly walked down on the small shady path among the trees. Along the path I could see the main area of the temple where the elephant cave is.  In this main area, there are four main buildings were seen. Those are the remaining stones which were neatly arranged in some rows. In front of these stones, the 7 holly fountains that are attached on the wall beautifully stand. It is called The Sapta Gangga . The
