went to genting with my mum from last mon weds to fri.
same old thing - theme park rides, the clouds and cool weather, the shopping and stuff.
but bcos the sch hols are over, it is less crowded (or so it seemed)
on the 2nd day in fact, i enjoyed 3-4 rounds of continuous bumper car with the about the same group of people cos theres little/no queue!
the breakfast at 1st world cafe at the 3rd morning is a shock of my life.
so crowded, queue here and there. the food also quite sucky.
suddenly so many chinese tourists.
the trip back to singapore is refreshingly free of jams (except for the rain, the 2 drivers having their endless chatter, and a flying stone shattering a small potion of the windscreen).
reached back in singapore for the first time before nightfall.
but damn, the journey bak home via taxi is the opposite due to the peak hour. =/
SAT
cycling at ubin!
my 2nd time after the odac-nyaa camp last year.
this time it is with leckkhai, yihang, sheryl, weihao, jasontan and junliang.
a very HOT experience with the blazing sun.
visited chek jawa but could only see small fishes and some jellyfishes (and a damn fat bettle) due to the high tide.
had lunch at the seafood restaurant there and then cycled to try to find the quarry.
think it is now closed to the public or something, since paths leading to it led to state land and dead ends...zzz
some of the paths were also seriously rocky and bumpy and rough but luckily our $6 bikes held up much better than the $2 bikes at the previous time.
but of cos, i will NOT let my own bike suffer the same treatment.
though the brakes were kinda sucky, i enjoyed going down the slopes and of cos, hated doing up them, esp the rocky ones which made the tough going even tougher.
overall it is nice to be cycling amound nature and with friends, but the weather is a wee bit too hot though.
drank up almost 3 litres of water and 100-plus and visiting the toilet only once - after we came bak to the mainland.
was feeling so tired on the bus trip to yishun that the 3 of us who got seats dozed off.
SUNburnt for the 2nd time in the month!
tt is like right after my previously burnt and peeling skin got rubbed off completely.
