A short getaway for us please, We simply needed one!

Pulau Ubin was where we went. I had never been there before, never question about where this place is. For the 21 years (22nd already) of my life, Heard of the name but Pulau Ubin is still unknown to me.

4 of us went on our adventurous trip! Kim says she's been here 6 years ago for camps and more camps!

Welcome to Pulau Ubin! Yea, and Kim strike a cute post for the photo!

hahaha. It wasn't the glam photos that i usually would post, but well, thats the original me, without make up! haha.

Ubin has several bicycle rental shops where bike rentals can be as cheap as $2 per day! Ok, i doubt we could take the $2 bikes as its either cranky and old OR kiddies bike.

This tranquil place, consist of houses on stilts, blue seas, hot sun and beautiful quarries..

We rented a normal bike, $6/$8 for whole day.

Random pics taken by Miss Kan as below..

Kimkim and Me! I just happened to have shadows casted on my face. argh. no nice..

This is much better! Strong sea breeze blowing...

This is my ah kor, he's my motivator! I'm super motivated to exercise because of him!

I dunno why Kim wants to take picture of the washroom!

We were exhausted after cycling for about 2.5hrs.. Got out of the bikes and walk about for awhile..

We reached Chek Jawa, and there we are, trying to explore the place..

The views of the Chek Jawa house no.1.

Kim and Me, in trying to invade into her photo space and successfully did it!

Boyfriend and I.

Kimkim and me..

Who could resist the beautiful seaview?

The story of Pulau Ubin, involving Elephant, Pig and Frog..

The ladies

The guys...

While we were sunbathing, we caught sight of a fallen surfer.

Boyfriend and I loves camworing!

The sun was so good, the guys wanted to sunbathe even more.. by lying down on the hot burning ground.

And Patrick tries to imitate some yoga poses!

Wat a beautiful sky!

Kim kept emphasizing that this looks identical to Hansel and Gretel's house! We are into fairytales and fantasies already!

I was tired.. so i made Boyfriend piggyback me..

Kim so bad lor.. take photo from this view. damn fat.. haha!

Next up, we went up the tower to have a bird's eye view of Pulau Ubin.
FYI: He didnt piggy me up. haha! We'll sure tumble down the stairs if he does!

Ubin really has alot of beautiful lush greeneries!

There were benches for ~~lazy~~ people to

rest and relax...

Was ah kor imitating the bird, or is my imagination running too wild? haha!

ah kor had a big mosquito bite on his arm. Kim trying to make a hot cross bun on it..

End up, bleeding. lol.

Shadow taken from the top of the tower. Guess where me?
Show some pictures first before telling the answer...

Tadah! answer as below!

Red Circle : Me
Pink Circle : Kor and Kim

Went back to retrieve our bicycle and to conquer another fun place..

This was wat we did, to differentiate our bicycle from the rest!
The seats were scorching hot, our butts were all suffering from aches!
Tahan thru, we ride across the bumpy slopes and finally reached a quarry..

Rest and relax. Right in front of the quarry.

Soon after, we went to get a drink for ourselves..

I can't believe we actually cycled 4hrs in steep slopes up and down, muddy areas, corbwebs right beside your face and big stones all over the place!

Great trip overall, we enjoyed it very much!
Next up: Unknown. will continue exploring exciting and fun places!

Do read another version of the whole trip by Kim.

I have moved~
