Crab island

Green Bicycle Posted by Picasa

Last saturday, i went for an outing...with dark kai, his colleagues and my friends.
We went to Crab Island.... a 30 minutes boat ride away from the town i am staying currently.

That island is buildt on stilt...all the shops, the school, the police station, the bank, the houses...
there are no cars there because roads basically doesnt exist there....
instead of roads, there are wooden walkways, pathways on stilt and of course rivers or god forbid, you can call it canals... hahahahahah

People there commute using bicycle or motorcycle, walking or by boats.
If you click for the larger version of this picture, you will see that actually this bicycle does not need any peddling...because it was fitted with a motor.

hence is basically an auto-bicycle. This can be found only on the island.

for the coming few days, i believe you...all the treasured friend and visitor of this blog will be feasted with dozen of pictures from the Crab Island.....

Queen - Bicycle Race Lyrics

(Mercury)

Bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride it where I like
You say black I say white
You say bark I say bite
You say shark I say hey man
Jaws was never my scene
And I don't like Star Wars
You say Rolls I say Royce
You say God give me a choice
You say Lord I say Christ
I don't believe in Peter Pan
Frankenstein or Superman
All I wanna do is
Bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my
Bicycle races are coming your way
So forget all your duties oh yeah!
Fat bottomed girls they'll be riding today
So look out for those beauties oh yeah
On your marks get set go
Bicycle race bicycle race bicycle race
Bicycle bicycle bicyI want to ride my bicycle
Bicycle bicycle bicycle
Bicycle race
You say coke I say caine
You say John I say Wayne
Hot dog I say cool it man
I don't wanna be the President of America
You say smile I say cheese
Cartier I say please
Income tax I say Jesus
I don't wanna be a candidate
For Vietnam or Watergate
Cos all I want to do is
Bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride it where I like

I think these are actually Chameleon Bicycles® which change color to blend in with the background to make theft more difficult. :)
