Slouching Tree...

Thought this tree was unique. It's slouching... 
It's amazing how trees can still grow despite it being in a weird position.


Slouching Tree at East Coast Park

I have a feeling it was falling and the branches were all cut off.
It decided to live and sprouted new branches.

Humans should be like that right? Persevere on...

These large breed dogs must also be muzzled in public places.

This was seen at East Coast Park.

At first glance, I interpreted the top drawing as please post your dog poo because I thought that was a post box! Then I realised it was the drawing of a bin.


Dog Signs.....

I wonder how they choose these 12 breeds of dogs to be 'featured' in the sign.
Most common breed of large dogs seen walking in that area?

I find it educational because I don't know the names of these dogs.
The second dog on the second row looks very cute right?

Dhoby Ghaut Green

I like the work of National Parks Board (NParks) in Singapore.
They have been creating or building new parks everywhere.

I like this new open-air amphitheatre. It looks so pleasant and yet artistic.

I am not the only curious one. Look, someone's trying to peep inside!

Gardens by the Bay - Conservatory Complex

Have you seen this structure near Marina Barrage when you pass by the East Coast Parkway (ECP)?
It's the Gardens by the Bay, Conservatory Complex.

There are 2 conservatories planned at the Gardens by the Bay. It's a 54 hectare big garden! (Imagine 72 soccer fields)

Part of the Bay South portion of the garden is the 2 conservatories, a  cool dry and a cool moist. How interesting eh? I would love to see the temperate plants that they would be planting there!

Are you grow plants at home?
My rosemary herb plant is not too happy at the moment ;-(

Update: My brother just told me the photo above is the Cool Dry Moist conservatory.
