Song in B&W Part 2

This post is the continue from the Song in B&W Part 1. Most of the photos taken at my wife Rumah Panjai which is at Song River. The Rumah Panjai is belong to Tuai Rumah Sugai (Long House Leader). It takes 20 minutes to reach it from Song Wharf and perhaps an hour if dry season due to river low tide which need to haul long boat along the shallow river bed.

It is my 3 nights stay there, below are series photos to be shared.

Enjoy.

Waiting.

The picture above taken while riding on long boat. The man waving his hand, a welcome sign from the local :)

Chipping wood, one of the activities of the local as to preserve their wood stock for cooking purposes.

Children enjoying bathing at Song River.

Swimming in the river could be a cold experience and quite refreshing since the weather is hot.

Preparing Umbut(Malay word) or Upa(Iban Word) or shoots in english.

 “Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.” 
-Mother Teresa-

Thanks for viewing.
