The scenery at Sungai Burung

On to the 4th day of the 25-29 December northern trip...


Sunday  28th December 2014.


After spending the night at a nearby homestay I brought the kids for a drive and came across this jetty.





It is the fishing jetty of Sungai (river of) Burung.





It is situated in Balik Pulau, the south-west part of the island of Pulau Pinang (Penang).



As the river mouth is not so far I walked towards it.



I noticed there is a tsunami warning station here. I understand these parts were hit when the Tsunami of 26th December 2004 ravaged many places especially Aceh.



Standing at the end of a man-made barrier off the river mouth I started taking in the views from the right going anti-clockwise...














A look back towards the fishing jetty...
