A Memorable Day at Kent Ridge Park

Today is Hari Raya Puasa (new year for the Malays). Brought my mom to Kent Ridge Park. (A friend brought us here before) We decided to pack dinner and eat out in the open ! This is really a memorable day - dining in the open, fighting off ants and mosquitoes and worse of all - we forgot to ask for the disposable utensils for our packed food ! If you see properly from the pic, the corners of the foam box were all torn. They had become our spoons !

After our outdoor dining, we walked around the park. Here's one of the sea view. How i wished i stayed in one of those private housing facing the sea in the picture ...




A walk into the woods ...












A tree top walk within ....





Came across a small patch of land where neatly arranged crops and flowers are grown.


Really loved the nature, off course minus the mosquitoes! ^^

A day out with Yuki

Brought Yuki to East Coast Park. She practically jumped and hopped around the house when i told her i'll be bringing her out "Gai Gai" in the morning!

See her radiant smile as she pose for me! ^^






Many people also brought their dogs to the park for walks, or even just resting by the pond reading the morning papers !

Visit to Jurong BirdPark

The skies are so dark. Luckily the wind is blowing very strong. It managed to blow the dark clouds away swiftly, showcasing some rays of light. We are off to our planned itenary on a Sunday afternoon - the Jurong BirdPark !







Ha, don't think i want to bore you with pictures of the various birds i had taken .... However, there is one place within the park that i would like to share. This is one of my favourite place during the visit : Lory Loft.







Lory Loft is the world's largest (3000 sq.m & 9 storeys high) walk-in lory flight aviary, with over 1000 free-flying lories. The entire ambience adheres to a rainforest vale of tropical Northern Australia.



This is one of the colorful & vibrant lory residing in the aviary! I bought a special nectar mix at SGD2.00 and offer them to the lories perching on the rail. There's one who saw my offering and flew right onto my left shoulder, giving me a fright. (oops, i let out a scream and immediately i became the center of attention instead of the lories)




I call this the "Ah Beng" lory. Look at how it put one of its leg onto the container while it drinks the nectar from it! Ha

Well, i really had an enjoyable afternoon even though it's drizzling and we are even slightly drenched in the light showers later.
