Southern Ridges Trail - Part 1

LadyB is so right.

You have no 'soft skills' at all.

WTF.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuan & i went for a morning walk today.

Did half of the entire Southern Ridges Trail.

Started off at Alexandra Arch, moved along the Elevated Walkway of the Forest Walk, went round Telok Blangah Hill Park on to Hilltop Walk, before taking a 10min break at Henderson Waves to munch on our apples :)

After having rested our feet, camwhored and finished our water + apples, we set off again, making our way pass Faber Walk, going uphill until we saw Jewel Box. Yay!!

The sun was well and truly UP by then.

It was freaking hot.

I was turning a shade darker ALREADY!!!

Knowing that we were within minutes from the MRT station... *sigh of relief =P

Aircon.

Shelter.

Shade.

HERE WE COME!!!

lol.

Needless to say, we made our way down Marang Trail pretty quickly =)

All in, i'll say it was a relatively easy path we took. Covered the above in slightly less than 90mins.

Was reading the National Parks guides... reckon if we started off at Marang Trail and did the incline bit from the start, we might have been tired out much earlier. Ha!

It was nice to get out early for reasons other than going to work. =P

God is good.

He gave us beautiful weather, glorious sunshine......

I COULD do without the tan but oh well, boo!

The only bit i truly didn't like... were the monkeys!!!

ARGH!

I really DO NOT LIKE MONKEYS! IN FACT, I FREAK OUT JUST THAT TEENY BIT WHEN I SEE 'EM!!

=(

So ya... that bit i didn't like.

Mid-way up the Elevated Walkway i saw a lone monkey 'ambling along ahead... and i almost wanted to tell Yuan, "let's turn back. NOW!"

She had to hold my hand as we walked past IT.

Ugh, ugh, UGH!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ooooooOOOOOH.

Good thing we went out nice and early this morning.

=P

It's raining cats & dogs atm.

Best to go nap now.

Yay!!
