Foto Friday (Valentine) - Taiping Love Story

Introduction:

The loves and lives of the people in Taiping, a town where everyone knows your name, are entwined with the Taiping Lake Garden. Taipingites cannot imagine living without the lake and this is their love story.



Clockwise from top-left.

1. Young Love
They met, fell in love and courted at the Taiping Lake Garden. Now they have decided to get married here where it all began.

2. Middle Age
The are away at college so they have time to themselves. Even though they still have to work to support the , they somehow find time to stroll around the lake every day.

3. Retirement
The are grown up now and working in the big cities and they have a lot of time on their hands as they are now retired. They like to spend their time at the lake under the old oak tree and amongst the green green grass of home chatting from dawn till dusk.

Okay, okay, it is not an oak tree but I just cannot resist.

4. Memories
She is gone now somewhere over the rainbow but he insists on going to the Lake Garden every day to sit amongst the green green grass beneath the old oak tree where he can "meet and chat with her again." He has difficulty walking and his eyesight is not so good so the grandson has to take him there. A filial boy, he is.

The End
.
