It seems my holiday adventure is never ending, as a week into my school and im still blogging about them. But this is a true adventure, 2 days before school start, dear zhi and I took a bum-boat to PuLau Ubin for a day-out in the wild!!

We set off at 830 and reached Ubin at 1030, it was a rather long journey....taking the bum-boat already is a great feeling, like going on a holiday, or maybe i just love the sea view. Reaching Ubin, we had some breakfast at the Malay Stall. They were very insistent that we do not eat Outside Food...haha, i guess they saw my packet of Chwee Kuay and so warned me first. Not the most friendly of people considering they were the first islanders we met. Getting a bicycle there is easy as there were loads and loads of them, but they dont come quite that cheap tho as a better bike cost us 8 dollars...the shop-owner kept comparing prices with Sentosa!!(Hello?both also island doesnt mean can compare leh....ure sand is yellow leh not white!)haha...

So we set out, cycling down the Sensory Trail, Mamam Beach and Chek Jawa! Venturing into the Secret Garden we checked out all the herbs n Spices and coffee plant. After that we took the long way to Mamam Beach, which personally was quite a disappointment. THe beach was more like a sand patch, not quite what i had imagined curz i planned to have a lunch break there. Good thing the Orchid Plantation is just round the corner and we got to see lotsa baby rabbits, pet dogs and a pet wild boar!yea...

We then took the hilly roads up to Chek Jawa. It was the most challenging part of the day curz we had actually cycled for 2-3 hours non-stop. When we finally reached Chek Jawa, we were surprise to see a nice cottage sitting right by the sea...the broad-walk extends right to the sea and it was quite shiok sitting there, doing nothing but just listening to the wind.
After chek jawa, i had nothin on my itenary alr..haha.and so we trekked back and reached the jetty at about 230pm. A short 4 hr on the island, but an enjoyable one getting close to nature. Cycling through the hilly paths werent easy, so Kudos to dear zhi who trekked and pushed the bike with me til the end!!Good job yea.
After a rather heavy lunch at Changi Village, inroducing dear zhi to their famous Red-Tea Longan..And since we ended early, we took a bus home from Tampinese interchange to CCK!!oh yea...a whopping 1 plus/2 hours!! You can imagine, thats like 1/3 of our outing time already!!wahaha.
