Chase after duck in Trong duck farm

I planned for a kid outing trip to Taiping, and i started with a visit to Trong duck farm. 

Arriving at the duck farm, walk thru the restaurant, and you can see a leisure lake view, with that big and small yellow duck. 

Duck kayaking, definitely fun riding for kids, job of parent is to ensure right direction. We feed the fishes with some food we bought for duck, off course, duck came along too, so first come first serve. 

After playing with yellow plastic duck, we moved deep into the duck farm. Thousand of white dot at lake side came into my eyes, those are peking duck, not typical that we bought from pasar pagi.
There are 60 thousand duck in this duck farm, 

Feeding little duck, they need more food...

Don't chase after duck, but why not? those duck really attracting people to chase after... I know is not friendly, so i didn't encourage to chase, nor stop....

 Closer view to multi purpose tractor, he wanted first class view 

Last but not least, no photo, we had our lunch at restaurant of this farm, food were nice with fair price. I told that cashier that i overpaid for kid ticket and they refund from my food bill. I felt the extraordinary humanity of its people and farm

Sunny outing to Audi Dream Farm, Balik Pulau

Balik Pulau is an ideal location with leisure outing for people who stay in Penang island, it still not polluted by smell of commercial.. you don't have to plan with long holiday trip to visit, you can just come here anytime. 
I like to visit farm, and i like name of dream farm. Some signature of this farm is having some animals that kids like, and some plant that kids ate before.

Welcoming deer, Audi Dream Farm located at Jalan Rusa, so no surprise to see rusa here...  

 Some engagement with birds, i notice owner here love bird, there another big cage with many birds that i don't think is commercial  

Goat feeding, with milk, i wonder those are goat milk, or cow milk... Those milk bottle was not designed for goat, i think was recycle from some environmental friend mummy

Peking duck, goose, chicken

What is that green long melon? is a nice location to introduce kids on plant of certain food that they always see on dinning table

I walk up to goat house, and welcome by this senior citizen, so calm and so cool. Is ok, i am just a tourist.

Green pond for fish feeding

If your timing is good on  sunflower blossom, you can have sunflower bath

Feeding little pony 

Searching rabbits, perhaps rabbits don't like hot sun

Finally, a big swing that can accommodate a family, for a break after a sun bath and speaking a lot to explain what happened or having around here

Tasik Beris Vineyard at Sik, Kedah

 During labor day, we went to Vineyard at Tasik Beris, Kedah... before that i saw my aunty try to grow grape at her garden, which i doubt about that... until i manage to find more info about vineyard available at Malaysia.... Malaysia Boleh...
How to go Vineyard at Tasik Beris? Tasik Beris is 1.5 hours from Alor Setar, from exit of Gurun on PLUS highway, heading Sik and just go straight for around 45minutes. Vineyard is just before bridge of Tasik Beris... Jambatan Tasik Beris. 1.5 hours driving might be boring for kid if didnt sleep... but when wake up... they will cry....

Interesting signboard, Napa Valley Vineyard is 13479km away, and Beris Lake Vineyard is 4 meters aways... Vineyard at Napa Valley is free to access, but Beris Lake need RM3...

Is not a big vineyard here, and there is grape!! is red or black grape?

and green color, my father is so excited to try that... not allowed to pick that, so he just kiss that... that's the reason why mom always clean the grape before we can eat...

 For children, they will wonder why some many mini green balls hang around in this farm....

As i know, vineyard gone through 4 season for fall, prunning, growing, blossom and harvesting, and that cycle is once a year... Understanding from those on duty at Malaysia, after harvesting, they need to remove the leaf manually and prunning for accellerate growing of new branch, which will increase productivity of grapes.... Ohya, vineyard here is inside green house... to control the temperature and for same vine, harvesting happen twice a year... which suppose to sound good...

Before leaving, is not just the farm that you can visit if you come here, you can shop for the grapes as well. I try it… it is very freshie sweet, price paid at that time is RM15 per packet. They have the fresh grapes and also grape juices drink. Anyway... Mum said that is much expensive than pasar, but really taste fresh....

After leaving, Tasik Beris of Sik, we stop by at Glass Bottles Temple (Wat Charok Padang), located at Kampung Charok Padang, a lot of places here named in Thai, as this place close with borders to Thailand...
And FYI, Kedah is state, which having most Thai...
This temple is unique from other Wat, as the building is decorated with glass bottle, and there is a giant "glass bottle", which using glass bottle instead of tile or paint on the surface of construction....
