Milking Experience ~~ Facinating!

When we were at Melbourne, we had the experience to witness the milking process, also to experience ourself the manual milking process ~ squeezing the cow to collect milk!

I was not dare to do it as I was so afraid of the cow, thinking that she will kick me when I squeeze her.. My younger one and my hubby found it interesting and volunteered themselves. We captured the very own milking process ~ the rare experience for those who stay in a city in Malaysia..

Enjoy it and make sure you try this when you are in Australia next time ~ don't act like me who missed the chance in life time.. I guess I will do it next time - in my dream only lah :-)

Tessellations in Mathematics

Tessellations in Mathematics:

Shapes which tessellate cover the plane without gaps and without overlapping. There can only be three regular Tessellations on a 2D plane which are made from copies of a single regular polygon meeting at each vertex. These are of equilateral triangles, squares or regular hexagons. There are only three because the inside angles of the polygon must be a factor of 360° so that the polygons can line up at the points leaving no gaps.
