So, what else is happening?

Nothing much is happening around here. CH is away in NY, having the time of his life. My colleague is in Taiwan. EY is back in Seoul. Petunia has gone to Tasmania. Amy has flown off to Kuching and my brother in on vacation too. It's the holiday season!

YK has a week of tests while SK has just started his vacation job at the newly opened Food for Thought branch at Singapore Botanic Gardens. He is there for training today, so do drop by the cafe (near Cluny road entrance) if you're at the Gardens.

I think he'll enjoy it especially since the cafe's surrounded by lush greenery. We have been spending our weekends together at nature trails in Bukit Timah and Sungei Buloh. He's really into nature, just like me.

Boardwalk at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve.


I have been to Sungei Buloh more than 20 times but this was the first time I spotted baby horseshoe crabs crawling about on the swamp land. They are so cute and small, not larger than a 50ct coin.

After a spell of rain, the sun was up and all the monitor lizards were out sun-bathing.

Here are some photos taken at the hiking trail along Rifle Range Road.
