Parade-Coconuts

These were the coconuts my brother gathered from my coconut tree. A great harvest indeed!
I gave a few to my students and co-workers.
My brother hates opening the coconuts.....so no choice, I got to open them one by one by myself.
I was so busy........
I am not kidding.......I opened twelve coconuts in a row and I was so tiring and my hands were painful. ( Doing a short cut, I only opened a small hole for each coconut.....)
However, when come to the tasting part. Wow! Fantastic, it's so refreshing!
My hard work really paid off. My brother also gave me a thumb up praise...He..He..:)
Credit: The recent weather is extremely hot. This was my temporal relief....
I wanted to show a video of my student's maid opening coconut the professional way.
(not with me because it's recorded by my student, she hasn't send me the video clip yet!)
She can climbs up the coconut tree within a few seconds too:)

Green is my love:)
Even the hose and sandals are in green!

Wow, you are superb superman. I love it too but only lazy to mess up the place. So, I usually get watermelon instead.

Oh! ya, when you talk about weather. Watch out for dengue as there are a few reported cases in my area.

Cheers and have a great day,
