At the yard

I think my job is quite nice. It takes me to all kinds of places, often to far flung places. Today I was at a container yard situated at the furthest end of Singapore.

The tide was low and the air was clear. Across the water, I could see the coastline of Johor Bahru, Malaysia.

I spotted a kingfisher too, sunbathing in the morning light.


Wildflowers grow in abundance.

This particular one below brings back memories of my childhood.














It produces mini-pods very similar to passion fruit. We used to suck on the sweet sticky seeds when we were kids.
