CHEESE MAKING AND CLOG CARVING DEMO

Cheese making machine

Busuk rupanya bau cheese ni.. bau masam. Blok2 kuning kat atas rak sebelah belakang tu - that's the cheese. Tapi tu sample jer - only for demo purpose.

Nampak tak seketul kayu depan mamat nie?

Itu kayu poplar, kayu yang di guna untuk buat clog ni.

"Clogs was once carved by young men as a gift

to their bride during wedding (to replace ring)"

Boleh gitu?? kasut (kayu plak tu) ganti cincin??

Sorry ye En Fendi, saya tetap nak cincin hehehe...

DUTCH COSTUME

We all ada ambik gambar dalam Dutch costume ni satu family tapi sbb takde softcopy

so di tempek kan lah gambar makcik ni sebagai contoh... :)

WINDMILLS

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT VOLENDAM

Dekorasi (interior and exterior) rumah2 kat sini sangat lawa and dia orang ni suka mempamerkan hiasan rumah. One thing I like the most is the house curtain. Punya lah lawa sampai ingat rumah tu kedai jual langsir..hehehe.. kalu dia bukak pintu memang I dah masuk... Semua rumah kat sini macam berlawan2 hias rumah. Mana lah bandar ni tak cantik...

Deretan rumah yang lawa-lawa...
