Camping in Singapore

It was a spontaneous decision to head down to Singapore for a 1 night camping trip. Yeah I know.. of ALL places right haha. Well, I’ve never set up camp at a beach before, and besides, spontaneous plans like this are FUN!

Our venue was Singapore’s East Coast Park - a loonng stretch of reclaimed coastal land turned beach, with walking, rollerblading and cycling pathways, toilet and showers, restaurants and fun activities (bowling, cable skiing, etc.) all within walking distance.

When I arrived in Singapore on Sat afternoon though, it was raining. The rain started since the morning and didn’t let up. We lingered and played card games over at Airin’s apartment until the rain finally slowed down at around 6pm.

When we started pitching up the tent, the sun had already set..

Stuck suffering in the tent..

It continued till I got back home, but I managed to recover within the next day. Not before I lost up to 2 kgs of body fluids though. Thanks guys for looking over me. I think Jacq and Airin are pro already - they know exactly what to expect and what to do.. my condition’s no longer shocking to them haha.

Sigh, I really need to fix myself… Health wise, it’s been a HORRIBLE year.

Wow Man!

I really missed the idea of camping - been doing that when I was scout during my high school days. :-)

Yeah was also wondering why Singapore of all places because we have better choices right here in Malaysia.

Hmm… wonder if I’ll pitch up tent again! ;-)
