Every place in Singapore that we visit has had something new, interesting and/or attractive to explore. We're well past only seeing sites that are featured in guidebooks. Last Sunday, we picked out a large park — the Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park — in the center of the island. This recently developed land follows a meandering river that drains the Lower Peirce Reservoir. We entered at the eastern end, near the Bishan MRT stop, and walked the 2+ mile length of the park, ending at the reservoir (seen in the final photo). Along the way, among other features, we passed a playground, a wading area, the biggest stone reflexology path we've ever seen, and a wonderful pond filled with water lilies. As always, the weather was warm and very humid, and so the park grounds weren't crowded. (This condition is in stark contrast to the many air-conditioned shopping malls that are completely jammed with people, especially on weekends.)
I started this blog during the first half of 2009, when, along with my wife, Ingrid, and youngest daughter, Daniela, I spent considerable time in Costa Rica and Spain. Here I recorded a summary of my impressions on most days during our travels. The observations are primarily made through the lens of my camera, augmented by a few paragraphs.
After returning to California in June 2009, I decided to continue the blog. Entries when I'm in California will be sporadic; I'll post more frequently when I travel. The goal will be to continue learning and sharing with the subject inspired by what I happened to find visually interesting.
