Goat, Frog & Fish Farms

 

 

These farms are located in the Lim Chu Kang area. In a land area just before the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve. I believe there are more than 10 farms in that vicinity, and most, if not all, welcome visitors, though some of them require an entrance fee. For most of those that do not require an entrance fee, visitors can choose to pay a minimal sum for a guided tour.

The distance between farms are pretty far, so driving is a necessity. However, I do believe that "tourists" can pay a small fee for a package, which charters a bus to drive you to 10 farms within that vicinity - with guided-tours included.

Insect at Mt. Faber.

This is the second time I've been to Mt. Faber for the purpose of snapping, and it's also the second time I'm taking a photo of this specific species of insect at the exact same spot. I guess it's a common hang-out for them, and you shouldn't have any problem finding one of these. It's situated near a wall of bronze memorials.

The largest of my 6 turtles that I rear at home.

Avril - the lastest member in the Seah family

My youngest uncles's (my mum's brother) baby girl - Avril. He said they chose Avril because it means the beginning of Spring - what a beautiful name! The youngest addition to the Seah family and my youngest niece.

She spent all of her time sleeping when our side of the family was there. Luckily, I stayed on even though every single family member, but one, had left. It was her baby shower and due to space constraints, they had to stagger the timing of our arrivals, so the in-laws came later.

Avril finally decided to open her eyes a few hours after my arrival there. Before that, she was either sleeping or drinking milk with her eyes closed! I wonder, are all babies like this?

The things we don't see - Vivo City

Honestly, I feel I should be receiving some kind of a reward for this photo. Maybe it doesn't look that great to you, but to me, it's the best photo I've ever taken, and I hope it doesn't end here.

This is one of the most recent photography outing I went on, in the ratio of photo date to blog post date. Most of the previous blog posts you see are photos taken quite some time back, even though the posted dates are in  June. Now that my girlfriend works in Vivo, I go there a lot, and I decided that I should spend one afternoon looking out for things we don't usually take note of when we are there.

I believe people who have visited Vivo City before will wonder whether some of the photos are really from Vivo City; well, yes, they all are.

Vivo City is just located next to Harbour Front, in fact, they are connected. Vivo City is where most tourists go for shopping (the biggest shopping mall in Singapore - though it doesn't mean anything since Orchard Road is where everyone goes for the sole purpose of shopping)and a visit to Sentosa or even if they are going to Bali or Batam via ferry from Harbour Front.
