see d faint green light trails? its d fireflies.... trapped in d bottle~ n long time expo abit...so can see how it travelled~ =) then we went off d place.... n we stayed in d middle of d river... so tat d tourguide can tell us more things.... n there was this moment... everybody was silent.... n i was really admiring d landscape, d breeze, d feeling~ then someone said... 'say something wa...its scary!' then everybody was like...yeawaa say sumthin laaa~ hahha den d rest of d trip...never d silence happen agn~ =P then we were on our way to see d place where bangau/egrets sleeps~ otw there... we saw a croc hidin nearby d mangrove forest... i tink it was d spot light.. it started moving vigorously staying in dat spot! i guess it was annoyed o sumthin? then it started to move towards us a lil n still shaking moving o wateva movement it was doing... then d tourguide slowly steer d boat away from it n off we go~
