Revisit Keppel

Hi Blog,

Given that I am attending Gardeners Day Out at HortPark and having lunch at Funan, I will take advantage of the pleasant weather and explore with my new camera!

Err... This weather is a bit moody, but I'm sticking to my decision!!
I plan to perform a camera test to evaluate its performance against my previous model. Moreover, I intend to introduce my new camera into my regular explorations. Today's hike will serve as an opportunity similar to an exploration I undertook in October 2023.

Serapong Unknown Ruins

Good Morning Blog,

Recently, I've observed a team of urban explorers venturing into lesser-known areas in Serapong. Two of them, including the Chasing Peaks blogger, disclosed the location 📍 to me.

I thought to myself that I would try it on my own.
However, I need more confidence to proceed alone, as my intuition advises against it. Luckily, some fellow explorers mentioned they were heading there, so I wanted to tag along to be safe.


Fort Canning Battlebox SG

Hi Blog,

As a novice in urban exploration, I plan to visit a location that would be a dream for urbex enthusiasts if not for the organized group facilitating the place.

So where am I talking about? It is at Fort Canning Battlebox.
Within Fort Canning Hill is a WWII bunker built on the hill to operate as commanding HQ during the wars. For historical reasons, it is maintained by the government rather than leaving it to rot and be forgotten.


Access While Low Tide

Good Morning Blog,

Today was my 2nd day of leave for 2023. My friends wanted to go to the island and needed me to bring them along. Although I had gone to the Island with XY and BW... Since I had promised I would fulfil my words.

Today's weather would be a chilled one.
I checked today's tidal schedule, and it seemed like there was a low tide in the morning timing. I only hope today won't dampen my mood.



No Water Island Visit

Good Morning Blog,

XY and BW decided to take a trip to Lazarus Island while in Singapore. XY had to return to Singapore temporarily to sort out his citizenship issues and BW had some leave days to spare. It was a farewell for XY and a first-time experience for BW.

Thank Heaven for such a sunny morning.
I decided to take a trip to the island, as this was the first time I had visited it with my close friends. I expected it to be a fun and relaxing experience.



Finding That Wall

Good morning Blog,

Thank God it's Friday! I was troubled about where should I go next. Why so?

I woke up very early for my medical appointment and the doctor would usually give me a day's mc; so I was thinking about my next destination after mc.
Eventually, I can't decide... Wanted to go for island sun tanning or exploration or a quiet hike or go back home and sleep.

Searching for the Searchlight

Hi Blog,

It was great to have a long weekend, especially on Monday, to reduce Monday's blue effect. Today, I was invited to join a group by WS and S to look for some locations which I had yet to find.

Getting ready. Thank Heaven for such nice weather as there were storms at the later part of these days.
As titled, they told me that today they will try to cover as many as they can. Let's see what it is and what I missed.

Fort Siloso & Tanjong Rimau

Hi Blog,

This one I had been waiting for an opportunity! And I don't care anymore, I decided to go for it!

Thanks Heaven for the wonderful weather today! Yesterday it was raining somehow... But the sky was God-sent.
Where was I going to? Based on the title, let me show you a bit and explain what's up with today?

Closing Golden Mile Complex

Hi Blog,

I read it somewhere that Golden Mile Complex (also known as Little Thailand) was closing for redevelopment before 11th May 2023. WS invited me to join his team to explore that place. Usually, I only visit that place for Malaysia bus coach services and other than that, I don't go there for food or any. It will be a great opportunity to have a closer look at it.

The morning sky seemed gloomy and since we would be inside the building it wouldn't affect us.
You may read more about this place its redevelopment news and interesting information. Here, I won't cover much of the history or any useful information about Golden Mile because there are other websites which did better than me; I only journal my last visit there without any proper writing.



Finding Old Hideout Shelter

Hi Blog,

Before I went for an afternoon activity and was supposed to go for a hike with my friend but they couldn't make it... So it was my Me-time moment!

So where was I planning to go?
I wanted to revisit the same place because there are some locations that I missed out on after checking on some expert hikers who visited that place.

West Side of Keppel Hill

Hi Blog,

After yesterday's hike with Mr L and his friends to visit the Great Banyan Tree and a new discovery (for me) beside Keppel Reservoir, I decided to go on my own today.

Thanks, Heaven didn't rain in the morning.
Nowadays, there is nothing new and exciting location in Singapore so any newer places are always exciting for me. (I just have to stop visiting abandoned building locations)

Exploring Labrador Nature Park

Good Morning Blog,

Today I was supposed to hike with K to explore quarries but maybe he was too tired, and he overslept so I changed my plan to explore Labrador Nature Park.

Can't find my wristband but just go ahead!
The weather was good on that day - a bright and cloudless sky lit up my mood!

Lazarus Island Leading Hike

Good morning Blog,

After I returned from my KL trip, the next day (today) was Deevepali, a Public holiday. I had promised a group of people to bring them to explore Lazarus Island to find the hidden structures. Honestly, I don't have a good feeling though...

Yes! Today I didn't wear my usual attire. I just dressed up normally and maybe it will be my attire as I aged and fatter. Another reason is that I don't want my trisuit damaged while bashing through the wood.
This will be my second time visiting those abandoned structures and I will try my best to remember how to get there without missing my way.

Visiting Batu Berlayar AMTB Battery Again

Hi Blog,

Today was our little red dot's birthday which also meant... PUBLIC HOLIDAY! Yes! Anyway, since I was still alright and not emo, then I should go for some visits.

Mr. Sun also reminded me that today was a good day.
So I decided to revisit my recent trip with XY and see how he would feel about the trip to such a place.

Forgotten Sijori Wondergolf

Hi Blog,

Oh my, the Seventh month just started so no more visits to dark, abandoned places... besides, there are not many places to explore either... but! I found out there are some more!

The weather seemed great!
As for the title, today I shall explore this mini golf course - Sijori Wondergolf at Sentosa.

Revisit Fort Serapong and Connaught Exploration

Hi Blog,

I thought of going back home after my first visit but since I was there and it was an easy exploration, I decided to revisit one place to cover one area which I missed out on previously. (link)

Walking past this famous roundabout, Mr. Sun started to warm up the whole island.
I was thinking through... What should I do for my future revisit of places... Will I need to do the same thing? Hoping for inspiration...

Sisters' Island Again

Yawn... hi... Blog...

Yes... have to wake up early... like 530am...

Cold but clear sky... Non-stop yawning
Yeah as you read the title. TS invited me to go on the exploration of low tide on 3rd Apr 2021 on Sisters' Island. Last year, I explored Sisters' Island for the first time (blog link) with TS and it was fun! Today was an early low-tide event. I can't wait to see what to find during the low tide.

Sisters' Island Exploration

Hi Blog,

There was one thing which made my Feb of 2020 an exciting one - which is a trip to Sister's Island! :D TS, the organiser of our Pulau Hantu trip previously.

On my way to Marina South Pier where TS was gathering everyone, and nearer to Sister's Island.
