But you’ll look sweet upon the seat/ Of a bicycle built for two
October 4, 2010A couple of weeks ago, my friends and I made a trip down to Pulau Ubin as part of a celebration for one of the girls. It was such a lovely, sun-drenched day, perfect for an idyllic day out. It’s been years (10 years, to be exact!) since I’ve been back to Ubin; work and life has been so hectic the past few years, and I’ve never found or made the time to come. But we got a group (of 10!) down, and the lot of us had such a good (and healthy!) time.

Caught a boat from Changi Ferry Terminal, and off we went!

What we found changed was that Ubin is (slightly) less “untouched” now; the paths are less wild, and there are areas that even look suspiciously landscaped. It is most apparent when you first get off the boat – a roaring bicycle rental trade is going on! We took awhile to decide on which stall and what bike to get…some of our friends got tandem bikes, which reminded me of the old song we learned in school…

Met a few of our non-human friends on our little journey!


And there were all these strange, random signs along the way too, I just had to share them.



Isn’t it just gorgeous?


I didn’t get a bicycle built for two!

We returned back before the sun set. I had such a lovely time. Till the next!
You are an angel on vacation! Relax and carefree. ….
Hi Jade,
Just wondering when Sports@SG will be returning, and if you will be hosting it again? Thanks!
Hi Jade, chanced upon your blog and think the pictures you took during your ubin trip are really nice!
We have a regular photography showcase at our gallery space and the next theme coming up is ‘Did You See That Sign’ – this could mean a lot of things but the most direct interpretation would be the quirky signs you came across (esp the ‘buy a drink la’!)
Let me know if you are keen to contribute to the next showcase :]
Looking forward to your reply!
Best Regards,
Keryl
Heya this is extremely belated a reply, sorry! Hope the showcase went well!
There’s a special coming up soon; I won’t be hosting it, but I think Kui Jien will be. I’m currently filming season 2 of Point of Entry – out in December 2011, so do tune in then!
