Waitomo Caves And Funny Looking Buildings

It’s great that I was staying in Hamilton because Hamilton is the gateway to New Zealand North Island’s scenic countryside.

Baby stole my wallet

On the fourth day of my travels, I left my sister’s place to drive towards the Waitomo. Turned out the hardest thing for me to do was to leave the house. Jayden was crying non-stop because I woke up late and didn’t have time to play with him in the morning.

Waitomo is 1.5 hours drive from Hamilton and is best known for its system of underground limestone caves. What made these caves really special is that they are inhabited by colonies of tiny little insects called “glow worms”. These insects hang over cave ceilings and emit blue bioluminesence lights, literally from their asses, to attract food and sex.
If all it takes for chicks to have sex with me is for my ass to glow blue light, I think I wanna be a glow worm too.

We took the guided Spellbound tour into the caves (costs NZD$47.50 / RM 119 per person). If you want to, you could do blackwater rafting and abseiling in Waitomo. I didn’t because the costs are way out of my budget.

It was freaking cold inside the caves, but the experience was worth it. Our guide gave each of us hard hats that made us looks like miners. Once we hiked deep inside, she got us to switch off our headlamps.

Without all the light pollution from outside, the entire cave glowed like the brightest stars I’ve ever seen, only instead of stars were millions of glow worms everywhere above our heads.

Outside the caves, the Waitomo landscape looks like the Land of the Teletubbies with its strange-looking hills. Apparently, many of the Shire scenes in the Lord of the Rings were filmed in this area.
The entire tour took only about 3.5 hours. When we finished, we still got a bit of time on our hands so we made an excursion to Marokopa Falls.

This is one spectacular waterfall not many tour buses would take you to since it’s a bit out of the way. I’m just glad I’m on a self-drive tour.
Another one of the best things about touring around in a car is that you can at your own pace, stop and see many peculiar sights along the way. And trust me, there are lots of them in the New Zealand countryside.

Slow down. Cows crossing.

From Hamilton heading towards Rotorua, we encountered in one of the towns, a giant building shaped like a dog.

Got tongue hanging out some more

It’s the New Zealand Tourist Information Centre.
Next to it, is a giant building shaped like a sheep, selling sheep products.

Eeek! Giant man-eating sheep!

Those crazy New Zealanders, though you gotta admit that it’s actually kinda cute.
I have an idea. I reckon Malaysia could perhaps take a leaf out of the Kiwi’s book and do something similar.
After reading about the Penang Municipal Council President implying that women who wear normally office attire are bringing upon themselves to be sexually harrassed because it is “sexy”, I suggest that the Penang Municipal Council building be renovated into this.


Considering how much shit came out from the president’s mouth, I think this design is only appropriate.

  1. Woah. The glowworms are fantastic. Now I know where to go for my next holiday.
    By the way the big ass was sort of anticlimactic. 😛

  2. HAHA. the last picture is GREAT.
    i’m going to new zealand in december. too bad im not going to waitomo caves. the glow worms are spectacular. argh. i wanna go there some time too.
    great entry, kenny. =)

  3. Hilarious picture of the ass.
    Not just the PMC President, everyone’s full of shit. You find shit in banks, schools, government departments … everywhere!

  4. i wonder where u get the ass pic from…
    btw the comment given by the president is so mean… to them its sexy? wth? if sexy then girls who wear baju kurung wun get raped d lar….

  5. CANT AGREE MORE with the last pic. bodoh, mindless, cakap tak pakai otak, otak cacing,. HOW can he be a president ar…ignorant n arrogant. Dah lah corrupt banyak, Talk rubbish somemore to get publicity.
    Someone pls tell them that UMNO is not untouchable.

  6. i cant help but feel many muslim men are generally sexist and to think that they should blame a woman when she was a victim is totally atrocious. muslim men should learn that at this era women are of equal status that receives education, and not cook and sleep at home. we don’t hear of such things in america

  7. The Penang Municipal cheif was rich…so i had to rob him…its not my fault…he was showing off his Merc and he should have lived a less show off life with a proton and some small house.
    I live in australia and a couple of weeks ago there was this hugeeee outrage when the islam religion cheif here blamed woman for getting raped because they dressed ‘skanky’. Lucky enough ppl here take action…he was banned from preaching……for awhile at least.

  8. hahaha.good one on the ass.if that’s the case,many department shall be renovated and some might have the shape of cock cos they talked too much cock.maybe cow’s poo too–bullshit!!

  9. Yawn….Yawn……Yawn……We are sick of your boring New Zealand trip post stories already-lah, Kenny…….Now is Nov….Your trip is 2 months back….. I better go to sleep……so boring post…….ZZZZZZZZZZ….

  10. mr.elb …not sure if you are observant enough but i doubt kenny took any pictures inside that cave..also if you notice, under the picture a website is given “glowworm.co.nz” and at that website, the picture can be found. i suggest being alot more observant =) or at least give kenny more credit for following the rules.

  11. Malaysia is definitely full of shit..no wonder they’re so backwards in terms of progress. they make alot of fuss over nothing and never back their statements up.
    If im not mistaken, that sexy dress incident was filmed in a government office and IF im not mistaken, government offices are filled with malay men and nearly no chinese men. correct me if im wrong but does that mean the guy who zoomed in on the woman’s thigh was a malay dude? and the guy defending that guy is also a malay? thats some pretty hardout racist shit right there.
    Not to mention, the “datuk” doesn’t even blame his fellow man for not following their sacred Quaran. Instead, he takes it out on the chinese woman? pfft..what next? jail chinese people for not wearing tudungs? get a life mr. Datuk Abu Bakar Hassan because to you, someone wearing a sexy dress takes priority over someone not bothering to follow the Quaran. Sexy > Quaran… If anything, blame that dude for having no self restraint and no life for the invasion of privacy (is there no Privacy Act in malaysia?)

  12. Kennys taste of Statuephilia is back again…
    Maybe kenny will make a big building
    resemble a womans body…
    or just make a naked statue.
    Kenny you should check these stutues you know.. very good quality one :
    realdoll.com

  13. “After reading about the Penang Municipal Council President implying that women who wear normally office attire are bringing upon themselves to be sexually harrassed because it is “sexy”, I suggest that the Penang Municipal Council building be renovated into this.”
    Kenny, appropriate indeed. At least after it is renovated into “that” building, at least Malaysians can then understand why the supposedly wise one governing the people say such silly remarks.
    Sad isn’t it. “Kampung mentality”.

  14. Hi there! I have been to NZ before as well and I simply loved my trip to the Waitomo Caves! The glow worms are simply stunning! Too bad though, that during our trip some stupid fella decided to give the worms some standing ovation by clapping loud and long and caused the glows to fade. Sigh. But NZ is really cool, will be heading there again this December! Cheers!

  15. wah…e glow worms pic looks nice!
    haha…
    I would wanna spend 2weeks in NZ if i get rich someday…
    lolz…
    I dun ve sister in NZ.
    I dun ve companies offering ‘irresistable’ pay like Kenny…

  16. Ya, Some people have no brains…Talk also dun know what they are talking about… As the idioms goes “Empty vessels make the most noise” … I wonder how he become the president of penang municipal… I guess the followers of him also dummy…

  17. NZ is great!! Road trip leads you anywhere & see everything. I went to South Island last April and it was good !!!!
    Hey, the ass is freaking funny!
    Maybe the “smart”head + tongue hanging out + a shit looking stuff on it sound rather closed…LOL

  18. that guy’s getting some stupid comments for that…
    aiya, no wonder, some countries can get from 3rd world country to first world country even faster than one country that is more advanced than itself when they started the whole “race”. lol
    singapore and malaysia, for the best example, visible and so clear

  19. that guy’s getting some stupid comments for that…

  20. lol, that’s malaysia for you. seriously it’ll only be a matter of time before all the retards at the top think this way. and with local unis churning out low quality graduates, where is this country heading to man??!!! dead end??

  21. The glow worms are beautiful. In a crazy way. After all, since when have we said something that comes out of asses is beautiful? 🙂
    And yes, I agree about the last part. Stupid guy. Meng-sia-soi-kan.

  22. wow..my dream place NZ..sigh..but so expensive and nobody there to give me accomodation. But I heard that we can work part time while travelling there like in the rental homes, we pay with the cleanings and keeping the huts/houses clean..wonder if its true…;(
    Cheers.

  23. LOL…Nice ass there lol..suits the Penang Municipal Council I guess lol….
    WOW those glow worms are super man!! wonder can I make my ass glow like that?? LOL

  24. 3 things:
    One, Nice glow worms… to think all those glow came from their asses…
    Two, LOL sumo ass
    Three, yeah MPPP is full of shit. Cow dungs… buffaloes’…elephants’…

  25. Wow! those glow worms are amazingly beautiful.. Its pretty romantic le. Blue.. cool n calming.. T.T wish i can go there too.. But the cost is too high for me. T.T Hey Kenny, i got an idea. Since u do ‘giveaways’ once in a while, Why don’t u do sponsor trip to NZ?? LOL! (I doubt you’ll do so)

  26. reminds me of the teanau glowworms caves, also in nz. but southern part.. its indeed like u’re in space as its total darkness inside. not so blue tho.. its more like the shining stars in the sky. a must-visit place… very very very very nice experience!

  27. You should have tried the black water rafting. It’s much more fun than bungee jumping and rolling in that bubble ball!!! That’s because you get to swim with the eels, jump off from a mini waterfall, climb, swim, paddle and do all sorts of silly things while you’re inside the cave. *wink wink*

  28. “If im not mistaken, that sexy dress incident was filmed in a government office and IF im not mistaken, government offices are filled with malay men and nearly no chinese men. correct me if im wrong but does that mean the guy who zoomed in on the woman’s thigh was a malay dude? and the guy defending that guy is also a malay? thats some pretty hardout racist shit right there.”
    thats some pretty hardout racist shit you’re spewing right there, anti. u hv to rmmbr tht boys will b boys no matter wat his skin colour is. boys r attracted physically to girls. some may love d lumps, butt, thigh etc. some like kenny love female statues (still count as a physical attraction to girls). so d culprit could be any male with an access to d cctv. not juz a malay, u demented racist dotard.
    not defending d MPPP guy but if he wanted to defend his “malay” cameraman, he wouldnt hv transferred d culprit elsewhere. but he did it.
    btw, i like d glowing cave pic.

  29. comments on the waterfall pic:
    It looks like the photo is not taken by your sony T9 or T10, but a SLR camera using slow shutter speed. The photo is taken by other people and you take from them, or you brought a SLR camera with you too.

  30. good one. what’s better? I see that plastered on all their faces! did u hear about Walls biscuit having a cross on it and now they are protesting agaisnt it. stuhpid.

  31. Kenny, the dog i-site building actually consist of TOILET.. hehe. i visited the toilet once.. imagin, inside the dog head consist of toilet n information counter. cool rite?

  32. i love the glow worm
    i want to keep a glow worm in my room ! =P
    do u think i can buy them in Kuching? or
    did u bring them back kenny ? i hope to have it !
    if u have it can u give it to me ? maybe i will buy it from u ? =)

  33. Agreed with the last picture.
    I hope that incident will happen on his wife or daughther. then see what will happen. stupid arseprick.

  34. I very so agree with all of you on the ‘sexy’ issue. As i remembered correctly, this is not the first time that some of these ‘clever’ people make such brainless comments. One of the similar issue is regarding why crime has increase during these few years, they give silly comments that people shouldn’t blame on policemen for not making affort to secure our cities, and ladies shouldn’t wear too many jewelleries and carry handbags to attract such crimes…what BS… Another one i remembered, is that someone make some statement that females wearing sexy outfits attracts rapes, quite similar to what bryan had mentioned; and yeah, next time maybe we should all go to the richess man’s house and rob him, then say:” i can’t help it, he’s so darn rich that he makes me wanna rob him!”

  35. good one Kenny on the PG council, hmmm…. since the president is so shiiiit, made me wonder was he the one who ordered the workers to film the reporter, and worse still, how many female reporters thighs’ have already been filmed before this one was caught red-handed…

  36. Let’s say all women in this world wear unexposing clothes, they wrap themselves up with clothes. Does that mean that men still dont need sexual gratification? Does that mean men still dont need to have sex? The urge to have sex wont perish. Hence, even if women dont wear sexy clothes, men still peep, rape, etc. So please la mr president of PMC(peabrained men’s club), stop talking shit. I know you peep too. I know u watch porn too. That’s why u try to fight for yourself by criticizing women instead of yourself. Useless faggot.

  37. Why should Malaysians follow the Kiwis’ way of doing things ? We have our own rich heritage. Why can’t we use it ? Malaysia has always been copy cats. From the KLIA airport to the Twin Towers to so many ideas which are not our very own. What is stopping us is we want to please another person and because of that we stop doing what comes originally to us.
    The filming incident is the working of a sick mind.

  38. Say, I understand that the topic is on the PMC issue. But hey, just ‘potong jalan’ a bit. Have you guys read in the paper about our poor asronauts-to-be will be made to do teh tarik, play batu seremban and spin the gasing all for the sake of scientific knowledge? Wow, imagine taxpayers money a.k.a RM93 million being used for all these crap when even my 9 year old nephew can tell me of the effect on an airless condition. Seems to me that instead of looking towards the more serious futuristic matters , all these-in- power are more concerned about is promoting Malaysia and its ‘diverse’ culture in space…

  39. you know kenny..i could like get those glow worms and stick it on my room ceiling..unlike those cheapo glow in the dark stars..it’ll be way cool rite? haha

  40. Nature is so beautiful right? wow.. it muz be breath taking to be standing in the cave right at that moment! i love waterfalls too!!!
    Ironical right our ppl in Malaysia? the things they say!!! Sigh..

  41. amplify: Perhaps it is you who needs to be more observant? I’m looking at the third picture, actually, where you can see the mucus tubes that the glow worms use to catch their prey with.

  42. Hhahahah.. nice ASSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! better still shove it up their ASSSSSSSSS!!!! Long live the Kenny~ hahahahahahhaha..

  43. Did you know that the very same Penang Municipal Council also tore down a 20 Year Old Temple with a 40 man municipal team and 6 policemen?
    The best part is, they refused to let the community remove the deities from the temple, arrested 6 men and release 2 shots for trying to beg for the removal of the deities.
    Now you tell me if Penang Municipal Council not only sexist but also racist?
    Klang Mansion Councillor only get fined for building without permit. While a place build by a community for worshipping is demolished without any respect.
    Now I think that the only building that the shit head deserves to sit in is the ass dat Kenny proposed!
    To view more about the demolisded temple check out this link http://powerpresent.blogspot.com/2006/11/more-pics-demolition-chinese-temple-in.html
    The whole issue was hushed up.. for you-know-why. Even the Star is owned by the government.

  44. hey Kenny, I’m actually goin to NZ in Dec wif my family, n we’re planning to drive ourselves too.
    Is our Malaysian driving license sufficient or do we hav to get an IDP(International Driving Permit)?
