Since my kids wanted to cycle at Zenxin Organic Park, where I had some vouchers, I decided to go Kluang again last Saturday. I have been to Kluang very frequently lately as I needed to fetch my sis-in-law, who's staying temporarily there. It was a good 50 mins drive though it rained heavily in some parts of the road.

Once I reached there, I saw the below and immediately my curiosity reached sky high. I really wonder how the organic version tasted, as well as the durians doesn't seems expensive.


When I tried the durian, it's good. I love the sweet and bitter taste in its pungent flesh! At Rm5 per kilo, I think it's not expensive as the one I bought was quite big. My wife and I can't even finished it! Anyway, I still wondering what's so 'organic' in it.... no pesticides ? LOL

yums....
 Meanwhile, my kids were cycling in the scorching sun in the afternoon and I was sweating profusely! They too, definitely were sweating and I decided to cut short the activity after they cycled for a while.

having fun.... 

Maybe it's time to introduce him two wheels .... 

My little princess can't really cycle the full swing but manage to move around

Having problems with the slope and needed my wifey's help...
We were off to Kluang town after that.

Perhaps this ends my photography contest saga. I went to Zenxin at Kluang, Johor to collect my first prize of cash, vouchers, membership card and not forgetting an interesting Fujifilm Instapix Mini 8, which is an instant camera. They also posted this on their facebook page.


Yours truly and my little princess collecting the prize from Zenxin's rep. 
The camera looks good as it churned out credit card sizes pixs, though the films were not cheap. It's cost almost RM3 per pix but the interesting thing is you can buy various types of photo templates to use. I just had a light breakfast and when reaching there around 2pm, I was really hungry. So, I ordered  their signature dish, Ginger Chicken Rice set with a mulberry drink.  


My lunch at Zenxin Organic Park... 

A refreshing mulberry drink
I think the chicken rice was organic as the chicken meat was hard. It's a bit different from normal chicken rice as I can tasted ginger over the chicken meat. It's actually quite delicious and filling. I drove off to Kluang town after that.

I posted a blog last week that  I have entered a photo contest for photos taken at a certain organic park. Yesterday, the park emailed me that my picture has been shortlisted for the photo contest. I was both excited and frustrated. Why I felt frustrated is because the contest is based on the no.of likes in facebook for the photo instead of neutral judging by a panel. With that, instead of quitting, I thought I give it a try for the first few days by soliciting votes on fb and see how it goes, as I heard a lot of bad experiences with this method of voting process.

Thus, see if you can help it increase by vote count. Just do it by clicking on this link and like the picture. Secondly, like this page, Zenxin Organic Park page on facebook too. (You can removed it after 15 July if you want ... LOL).

Thanks for supporting ! :)

When I was in Zenxin Organic Park two weeks ago, I saw a poster on a photo contest where they will choose winners of pictures taken at the park. Since I brought my DSLR, I decided to give it a try and took as many photos as I can, so that I can pick a good one for the contest. After running through  the pictures, somehow I decided to enter this picture for it. I felt it's very natural and relax, as well as contained the spontaneity of a little child. Thus, hopefully it can win me something, though the prizes are not that attractive compared to other photo contests but then, it's just for fun. What do you think? I have already submitted my entry.

I am not a good photographer but I must admit I love macro photography. While at Zenxin Organic Park last week in Kluang , I captured some of my favourite macro moments. I felt that it's not easy to capture insects sticking to petals as they will flew away when you are near them but voila...I managed it. I didn't really possessed a good macro lens but sometimes photography is not all about gears too, but  rather the moment and timing. That's my opinion anyway, coming from an amateur. And, I simply love the pictures!

Two insects with a 'face' clinging on to a ...err... petal? Don't know what  is that... hehe

Nice...it didn't fly away.... I guess this 'petal' must be delicious!



The last picture here are actually those morning glories growing on the fences and one look at it, there's   nothing really special. However, when zoom closer to it, to me, they looked like papers origami in purple. When I posted this on picture on instagram, I titled it 'be humble and you look good'. Don't you agreed?

I really thought it's a good idea to bring the kids closer to nature and Zenxin Organic Park in Kluang, which is kids' friendly, was a good choice! My kid was asking me to bring him there to join the short tour around the park and I thought why not, as I only needed to spend around  RM5-8 for the tour for each person. It's so much cheaper compared to those theme parks. :P  My little princess was given free access too. And, walking around under the sun and seeing the greens are way much better than seeing whatever on the ipad.

The kids really enjoyed themselves there as  they got goodies bags,free ice-creams, running around without worried about vehicles, cycling, get themselves sweaty and dirty, beautiful scenery, free snacks as well as get to feed bunnies and fishes. As for adults, it's kinda relaxing getaway and we really  got closer to nature. Though the weather was hot,  I had a great time over there. I have been there for many times to shop but didn't really went inside the farm.
