星加坡之旅 Day 4

Today, we will go back to Singapore.

Morning: breakfast - the food was similar but was fresher :)

Swimming at the beach: Some fish there!!!
I touched the floating balls and quickly swam back. :P I was not that good at swimming.

Spot 2: Hotel to check in

Spot 3 : Night Safariz
For me, it was interesting. For mum, it was not so. She was tired and she could n kit see clearly at night.



Deer


Are they building a reservoir?

Travel tips:
Walk along the trails before taking a tram because it is mmore interesting to explore around. Also, most people wait for the tram when they enter the zoo, wasting time on waiting.  You can take a tram whenevea you like.

新加坡之旅 Day 3

1st station: Breakfast
Reminder: Have breakfast earlier so that you can enjoy fresher food.

2nd station: River spa  ($80)
~travel : 1 hour
~ spa: 75 minutes  - A special experience to have spa on a sampan


~ river trip along the mangrove :)



~ lunch: chicken and fruit juice
We wanted to try fresh coconut juice.  The staff told us that the tree was wet and the staff couldn't climb the tree. Wow...... have to ask again next time...really want to see the climbing  :

We had our lunch here!



~On the way, the driver asked if we would go to OleOle or the hotel. We then went to tbe OleOle Market.

5th station:Ole Ole Market: Comment - nothing special to see

6th station: taxi to hotel ($22)

7th station : Buggy trip ($19/ hour)
For me, it was a chance to practise my driving. :P


8th station:
Dinner at a Japanese restaurant at the resort ($50)


Walk along the grass path

Comment:
1.The river spa was a special experience. It is not as luxurious as the one at Pennisula but it was still very relaxing. The oil was always hit and the touch was a always firm and relaxing.  However, mum and I were not used to tbe 'wet' towels and blanket. 
Saying so, I might have chosen the Mangrove spa if I had known about it earlier - a relaxing 3-hour spa! A four-course dinner and a night firefly trip will also be included!  It is nice to show mum tbe fireflies!!
2.The small market Ole Ole is not worthwhile to go. If I could choose again, I would go to the bigger market.
3. If I could have chosen again, I would have stayed in a resort that was closer to the pier. e.g.Kota Sebung.  There is also a bigger market.

新加坡之旅 (第一天)

下機取行李。坐地鐵到V Hotel. 酒店位於Lavender,可算是很方便。

媽媽休息。獄長到轉角的便利店,買電話咭。買抵用的是SingTel.買的時候一定要出示passport. (雖說抵用,打了兩通電話,不知誰的兩張相就沒了。)所以,第二天,買了$20的top up.

Zzzzzzzzz

Healing Heart

The damage has been noticed for long but no cure has been found.
Nothing could be done and the expression ‘let it be’ has been learnt.

Finally, its cure has come to help.

It takes time and effort but it will heal.

It may heal with scars, but it will heal.

Before it does, protect it with boundaries.

Once it heals, it will be stronger and can guard itself without any protection.

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”
(Proverbs 4:23)

蒼蠅間白黑

科技事物日新月異,不過「人」還是沒有變。幾百年前出現的情況,今天,只要有人,還是會出現。

蒼蠅間白黑,讒巧令親疏。(曹植 - 贈白馬王彪)

意思很簡單,懷有機心的人混淆黑白,搬弄是非,挑撥離間;機巧的讒言,使得親人之間都疏遠瞭。

陳競立說的有趣,也很實用。大家別以為蒼蠅不過是小小害蟲,只懂得幾聲淒厲,幾聲抽泣,須知一旦被蒼蠅纏住,整天在耳邊嗡嗡叫,不但煩人,而且惡心。對付蒼蠅的辦法其實很簡單,那就是一巴掌把牠拍扁,然後掃入垃圾桶。

似乎,我們也要訓練好自己的拍蠅技藝。

塔門一遊

五・一到哪裡? 獄長一家選擇塔門。發覺塔門已變了很多。有補給、有美景。是閒遊的好地方。

景點一: 天后廟
不信天后不要緊。也到這裡看看。向身後一看,青磚瓦頂、長樓梯,景色也怡人。 





景點二:源源不絕的草地






景點三:牛大叔一家

悶悶的小牛

吃奶的溫馨場面

景點四:風箏派對

 景點五:疊石

最後以一件藝術品作結。一見即知其名...... J

交通:
1.      西貢黃石碼頭: 坐船到塔門 (船程約三十分鐘。但到西貢碼頭的車程有點累人。)
2.      大學站附近(步行約二十分鐘)的馬料水碼頭: 坐船到塔門 (船程約一小時。感覺頗舒適。但船班次較少。)
