Picnic in the Park

It's a picnic in the park opposite Orchard Road MRT / Wisma Atria / Takashimaya.

Every Sunday there would be a group of mainly ladies having a picnic here. This group used to meet at what is now known as ION Orchard when it was still a mini hill with greenery.

Picnic

You know, the picnic food they bring actually smells really good! Why? Their day jobs mostly require them to prepare food for families they work for.

Picnic

When was the last time you had a picnic? I have not been to a picnic for years!

Sleeping with legs so high...

Saw this yesterday when colleagues and I went out for lunch.
We passed by a park and saw someone sleeping with legs crossed up so high.



Everyone sleeps differently. I guess if he's comfy like that it's ok.

What kind of sleeper are you?
Face up, face down or side sleeper?

Dedicated to all the children of Singapore

A children's garden at the Singapore Botanic Gardens.




From their website at http://www.sbg.org.sg/bukittimahcore/ChildrenGarden.asp it says that Jacob Ballas Children's Garden is Asia's first children's garden. Dedicated to all children of Singapore, it is designed to provide unique discovery and learning experiences in a garden setting.

Just happen to pass by, one of these days, I will go in and visit :-)

Do monkeys eat bread?

I am not sure of the answer, but this sign in a certain park in Singapore seems to suggest that. As far as i know, monkeys usually eat bananas, some fruits and nuts. Not sure about bread though.



If you venture into most parks or reservoirs in Singapore, you would see a sign like this. If you are caught feeding the monkeys, a fine of $500 will be imposed.

Have a good week ahead! And smile :)

Ricoh Park - The Park above the MRT Station

Looking out the window from where I am having a course, I see the park that I walk past frequently when I get out of the train station.

The park is actually quite big. According to the National Parks Board website, it is actually 1.02 ha.



This park is actually situated on top of the Tanjong Pagar train station. In the evenings, you can see many people resting and enjoying a temporary tranquility before they go home.
