Teluk Chempedak

We went to Teluk Chempedak last night and had a lovely time together. There are some trees missing and some works going on, but it was still a nice evening out. We arrived just as the sun was setting below these trees...

Lauren was not as scared of the sea as she was the last time we took her, and we managed to get this picture reasonably close to the shore...

But after I tried to dangle her little legs in the sea water, she stiffened up and strangled me, and she was still scared. So we retreated a few paces and as I put her down on the sand for a picture, she tried to run away to mummy. Here is the 'Lauren is scared' shot...

Being the mischievous baby that she is, every time we want to take a picture with her using the timer, she looks at the camera for the ten seconds where people generally shuffle around hurriedly to get in shape for the picture, and then when the red dot begins flashing two seconds before the camera fires, she has this annoying tendency to look directly down, as can be seen here...

The sun soon set and we made our way to the toilet to wash our feet and sit down beside the promenade for a while, enjoying the smooth cool air. Here is a view of the sea...

And finally, no visit to Teluk Chempedak is complete without eating something at McDonalds. It is a beautifully designed restaurant, although the service was nowhere near adequate. We simply had French Fries and an Oreo McFlurry, and as we were about to leave, I noticed Ronald McDonald, the worldwide image of this food chain, sitting on his chair beneath his restaurant name, almost as it were, casually looking out to sea. I love this picture...
