Saturday was a hectic day. Morning I went to Chek Jawa at Pulau Ubin, was pretty tired after that. On the bus back home, my mum called to say they'll be fetching me from wherever I am and then off we went to Subaru car showroom. Wahhhh I is liking Subaru WRX S-GT!!! I don't like the design, but the engine!! Whoa!!! 250bhp can!! Double that of Swift Sport's!! And the gear shift is the tiptronic kind, wah damn fun lah! I tell you, if me and my dad went for the test drive, we'll be super duper tempted to buy. For that kind of power, the car's cheap cheap!! Hehe. After that we went back, I got ready to go out yet again for the NTUMS Alumni Dinner. Met up with the adhoc peeps, haha pecah perut lah u guys! And I met some unexpected colleagues there too! It is really a small world. Haha.
Anyway!! Chek Jawa!
That was my first time in any Singapore pulau except Sentosa. Wahahahaha. You really wouldn't believe that place belongs to Singapore. It's so laid back, so kampong. Some parts of it reminded me of Penang, some parts reminded me of the hike I had at one of the Princes' Islands in Turkey.
We took the bumboat there, can fit like 12 people
Haha I remember taking this kinda shot for one of the boat rides on my grad trip last year. Should be the one in Turkey? I think Venice should have the same kinda shot.
And here we are!! This is the coast near the jetty of Pulau Ubin.
We took this uncle's Pajero to go to Chek Jawa. He is pretty entertaining. Wahahaha. Luckily we took the van instead of cycling. Can pengsan har if cycle all the way!!
This is the famous Kampong Melayu along the route to Chek Jawa. Dunoe if anyone's living here though.
And so the Chek Jawa board walk starts! It's a pity it's not like super low tide, but it's okay. The place itself is pretty enough :)
We saw this whole school of fishes, really many many of them! Some don't seem to be moving even. Haha.
Mangroves nearer the shore
We saw many of these small crabs on the beach! They love to bump into each other, seems like they're fighting but the more we look at them, the more we think they're just fooling around maybe.
This is actually sand, with the black parts residue of some sort, I hope it's not oil spill. I just thought this looked great lah cos can see the 'sand dunes' hahaha.
This is the coast, with part of the mangrove and there's the board walk on the left.
This is the insect that crawled on my tudung. Pretty rite!!
The Jejawi Tower
The view from the top of the mangrove...
...and the view of the ground from the top.
This is a weird plant I came across. The brown 'leaves' actually contain pods!
Hahah so old school rite!!!
Some coral-like thingy I found on one of the boulders at the beach beside the jetty
...and a close up
These are barnacles on the boulders. Some are empty, but these have inhabitants! Is that what they're called? Haha. If you touch them, they'll move. Heh
And then it was time to say bye bye to Pulau Ubin :)
I can't wait to come back again! This time I wanna bring someone else wahahahaha.
