Labour day at the West

On labour day, we headed to the far west and became abit more cultural (instead of our usual city haunts).. We explored Kranji War Memorial and I was surprised to find out that it is a very well maintained heritage site.. Armed with an assortment of cameras, ranging from the vintage film camera to the digital one, and finally my trusty phone camera, we quietly explored the area and began clicking away..
It is a quiet and beautiful place (Other than the incessant mossie attacks).. Weather that day was lovely too~ Rows and rows of graves neatly lined, and many had pretty flowers planted beside their graves..
I watched a short feature film on Kranji war memorial and got to know that the youngest soldier who died during the war was only 16 years old.. War is indeed cruel..
Let's be respectful and thank the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for Singapore..
Since we're around the far west, we hopped over to Kranji Farm for an excursion too~
Huge papayas!
Big mangoes too!
Bunch of Jambus...
We tried our hands at prawning too.. Haha after a 2-3 months hiatus.. We caught approximately 10 prawns after 2 hrs.. Haha..

And so this was how we spent our labour day~
