Part of the Sarawak river which is near my ah gong's place.Once again the sunset. I wonder y sunsets are so beautiful in sarawak and non-existent in singapore? There used to be a suspension bridge across the river( u still can see the steel support) but heard it collapsed one day last yr bcos the government did not maintain it. It was supposedly a protected heritage by the government but they didn't wan to fork out money to maintain. It was closed down for many yrs bcos it was deemed unsafe to walk on aldy then. Had many great childhood memorise of the bridge. Was quite an adventure walking on it, bcos wat ur stepping on are planks of solid strong wood nailed across the width of the bridge but it has like 5 cm of gapping hole b/w each wood. The width of the bridge if i didn't rem wrongly can take one and a half car let's say. So u walk on iit, u feel like half the time u might juz fall thru the gap, since u can see the river underneath and then it's so wide u can't hold on to the side while u walk..unless u stick to the side which is ridiculous bcos everyone didn't find it a prob. Too bad...sighz..
