Ubin

This week was holiday week, apart from the usual Wednesday day-off, there was also a Hari Raya holiday on Tuesday. I'm not going to talk about uneventful issues for once, went for a trip to Ubin today with Mei Yin and Wei Bao. Apparently, Mei Yin wanted to invite Angeline and Lucy too but Angeline was busy and Lucy already had something planned out for the day, but berated Mei Yin for not organizing such outings earlier because she seemed to want to come.

When we talk about price increases, even Pulau Ubin's not spared. Still trying to get used to the new price of $2.50 per boat trip (was $2), basically it was $5 to and fro. Bicycle rental was alright, still the same at $10 but this time we got bicycles with baskets which makes it less bothersome while riding because the bags will interferre. Didn't expect the public holiday today would make Pulau Ubin such a hotspot today, if anyone wanted to make a fortune on Ubin, well today's the day.

I told Mei Yin that we should avoid uneven rocky paths of doom that lead to nowhere, so today's destination was simply straight to Chek Jawa and back. It was totally hard to enjoy with so many people around Ubin in one day, it's just a strange feeling. I'm glad to say I managed to semi-conquer my fear of heights at the observation tower, and we got off almost immediately because it was over the limit of 20 people and it was actually shaking! (not violently, but mild)

After slacking at the platform for a little while, playing a little handphone music and soaking up the atmosphere it was back to the boats again. Surprisingly, it didn't rain despite the weather being cloudy. Then it was off to Tampines for lunch (late lunch somemore) before heading back home. The girls headed off to Orchard, wah still got so much energy.

As it was off the road and tiring, I declined and snoozed all the way back home.

Such a simplified entry because I'm expecting the two of them to give a more detailed one. /lazy
