Matt and I enjoyed an approximate 6 hour bike ride yesterday. We started from the bottom of Orchard Road, went beyond the Raffles complexes, crossed two rivers, and zig-zagged through traffic to the East Coast Parkway, an approximate 13 mile stretch of bike, jog, and skate pathways. The bottom of the parkway, this stretch here, is reached after riding over a pedestrian overpass (no bikes or skating allowed on the bridge...which we prompty disobeyed). It dead-ended into a construction site. We tried to make a short cut around the construction site to get to the parallel road, but that road is a highway with no access for bikers and skateboarders. We had to short cut our shortcut and return the way we came to cross over the highway and start our 90 minute ride back to the apartment. This is where we got a little muddy. Posted by Hello
The remains of a fast-devoured street stall meal in Chinatown. The banana leaf is a nice touch, but a little redundant on top of a plate. Matt and I brought Soren, a Dane, for his first Chinatown meal. He has since returned many times. Posted by Hello
These two trees intertwinted with eachother. I haven't seen anything like this before. Maybe a symbiotic relationship? Posted by Hello
