pulau ubin trip

woke up at 7am today by mum who told me that it was raining and that going to ubin was not a possibility.. shortly after, amanda called me to tell me the same thing.. but yawen was on her way to tampines already.. so i went to TM to meet her and have breakfast while we waited for the rain to stop so we could go to ubin..

we got to the ferry terminal at about 11 and took a bum boat to ubin.. we went straight to the information kiosk to get a map and information as to how we were to get to the chek jawa board walk.. we then rented a mountain bike for myself and a double seater for amanda and yawen.. we cycled all the way to the east of ubin from the jetty which is at the south end of it..

when we got there, we stoped by the information booth and got maps before heading onwards ontot the boardwalk.. took ALOT of good shots there.. one of the best moments is when amanda was shooting something and i spied a red dragonfly land on a leaf nearby.. i went right up to it and shot alot of cool pics.. it was very cooperative and didnt mind me going as close as 2cm away from it.. haha..

walked from the mangroves to the coastal area and took more shots.. after we got out of chek jawa, we cycled back to the main village at the jetty to have lunch/dinner.. ordered fried chicken, kang kong and prawn fried egg.. after that, me and yawen sent amanda to the jetty as she had to go off first.. we then continued to cycle on the 2-person bike to the western side of the island which we didnt go earlier on..

took the boat back at 6 and dad picked us up at the terminal..
