I woke up early on a sunny Thursday morning, ard 9am.. Totally excited about my Pulau Ubin trip... HAha! Virgin trip leh.. Haven been there before, but have already heard so much stories about it loh.. HAha.............. If I remembered correctly, Pulau Ubin was set as the filming venue for 'Good Morning Teacher' Zao an lao shi.. A channel 8 drama starring Chen Liping (Affectionately known as Ayoyo lao shi).. Correct me if I'm wrong..
Went over to Changi Village for my breakfast with Mr Koh, before meeting Changyan and Huimei.. I had Chwee Kueh =) but the cai po tasted a lil sour leh.. But still nice.. HAha!
Then Mr Koh and I proceeded to the jetty.. Applying sun block furiously, while waiting for Changyan and Huimei.. hee!
why that face? I don't know.. HAha!
Then off we went... We boarded the boat.. and we're on our way to Pulau Ubin loh! The boat ride was short but enjoyable.. Enjoyed having the sea breeze sweep past my face, while taking pics... I secretly took a few pics of the cute boy boy I saw on board...
The first few shots on the island: Welcome to Pulau Ubin............
With huimei
We rented bicycles for $6/day at some nearby bicycle shop.. cheap!
We then started our journey.. The journey started with us riding leisurely on some normal flat roads.. Then horror began.. I was greeted by some slopy/rocky/pebble-by paths that made my butt hurt like duno wat.. HAha! The ride was jerky and challenging loh... I had to brake so much while going downslope.. HAha! It was sucha feat I tell ya.. for me lah.. HAha! The brakes were ny bestest pals there.. Imagine cycling at Mac-Ritchie.. not the usual flat roads.. But the jungle-like area (the usual x-country route)... HAha!
I can almost picture myself tumbling down the slope can.. With a few scars on my face, maybe a broken tooth.. =P I'm such a sadist..
So, I was so glad that we get to stop over at some area.. We parked our bikes.. And started trekking along the boardwalk.. Too bad it was high tide then.. Mr Koh said that lil crabs could be spotted if the tide was low enough.. Well, timing wasnt right.. But we still cam whored under the scorching sun.. having fun! =)
We continued cycling.. Haiz! I prefered to walk at slopes.. all the time.. And I was alwiz the slowest.. The one making the most noise, full of shouts and screams.. brought too much noise pollution to the serene Pulau Ubin.. HAha!
Some occasional stop-over..
I'm tanner le wor... I must start my whitening regime soon.. =P
We continued cycling and then came to this restricted area.. We entered through this broken wired fence, and sneaked our way in.. HAha! which eventually led us to this lake... Beautiful scenery!
There, the girls were busying 'wading' in the shallow waters, while the boys were busy playing with 'jumping stones'.. My highest record: 2 jumps.. Mr Koh's: 7 times.. =P
Post-card worthy view......
We continued our journey... And came to some stop again.. HAha!
Yes! It was very hot.. We were practically cooked/baked under the blazing sun... Luckily I got my cap with me.. hee.......We saw a fat fat and very ugly monitor lizard too... Very disgusting.. HAha! Very big..
We rested at some hut/drinks stall.. and savoured the ice cold fresh sweet coconut.... Heaven! =) haha..........
Feeling recharged, we carried on... And came to this Secret Garden of Pulau Ubin.. Looks commercialized compared to the other parts of the island... But still, it has its own appeal... =)
Huimei posing with the well...
And Changyan with the Kang Kong.. HAha!
Posing at the entrance =)
After all that.. We're all tired and hungry! All set to go home loh... Back to Changi Village... =)
We are afraid of the paparazzi............. =P
That itchy hand...
Go home loh! =) tired tired.... black black.. But happy happy..................
