I was browsing thru some blogs that I came upon your blog.
I am just happy that there are still people who find Ipoh fascinating. Most of the people that I encounter consider Ipoh as a dead town except for the yummy food. No matter what, Ipoh will always have a special place in my heart!!
Nicole: You're right! Thanks for the ID. Wikipedia says passion flower (Passiflora) is a genus of about 500 species of flowering plants in the family Passifloraceae. They are mostly vines, with some being shrubs, and a few species being herbaceous.
Sue: Thanks. It helps that the scenery is unique. That's half the job done. I just have to look out for it and click.
Charis: Haha. But pictures don't do justice to the aroma and texture of the foooood. No char kuey teow in Texas?
ze: Hi, thanks for the compliments. Ipoh is my dad's hometown, so by extension, it's sort of my hometown also. It's a great place, although the grass is often greener on the other side.
