Old Bird Bird Park II

Good Morning Blog,

It's a long weekend this week because of Deepavali, but I didn't get enough rest at all. Had to attend different meetings/groups with different agendas. I only had today's morning window for myself.

Thanks, Heaven that it was a dry and sunny morning.
Today I would want to re-visit Bird Bird Park (in case, you had missed out on my previous visit) because I saw a picture of a monorail 🚝 track taken by one of the urbex rangers. I wanted that shot! And this place will be taken over by some companies by the end of this year.



CCK Forest

Hi Blog,

This place which I was to go, to does not have its name, naming it CCK Forest, seemed meh... Anyway, this place got me wondering if anything was interesting or not. Why don't I make my way there to see it myself?

Hmm... It seemed hazy... It seemed like our neighbour was burning the forest.
I guessed that it was a good opportunity to explore before it got worse.



Old Bird Bird Park

Hi Blog,

Today's morning where would I be heading to? Recently, I saw someone share an interesting place on their social media that looked familiar... My gut feeling told me the time had come and after enquired about the entrance...

It's time to explore before it was gone.
Yes, as titled, you might already know where I was heading, right? Let me show you around if you still don't have any idea.



Easter Dover Trees

Hi Blog,

The feeling of burden-less or relief after finished my blog posts was indescribable. Today I wanted to go hiking!

Where shall I go to?
Hmm... 🤔 After a careful and quick thought, I explored Dover Forest. I remembered that Dover Forest was in the midst of deforestation to make space for new buildings, but I saw many hikers still posing in pictures of the West zone of the Dover Forest.


Finding Random Storage Ruin

Hi Blog,

Right after I touched down in Singapore safely from Japan, my twelve days oversea trip. I had to take a taxi back home... More bleeding from my wallet... But I know I need some rest after that...

So I decided to go exploration in the next day!
But I will go and meet up with my friend, Ben, for a lunching before he continued his work.



Tuas TV again

Hi Blog,

Today was an exciting trip for me because I got a chance to visit my favourite place - Tuas TV World again. Today's trip was not about me going there myself, I want to save my trip there by knowing the situation...

Yes! Reached here at ease! Thanks to P for driving us here. I saw there was a guard guarding the entrance of Tuas TV.
There was someone picking me up to that place, if any unsuccessful attempt at Tuas TV, we had a vehicle to travel elsewhere.

Finding Veranda Banyan Tree

Good morning Blog,

As usual, my weekend routine is to go hiking. Hopefully one day, I will just cycle with my waifu regularly. I guess it is due to there being a place that I need to clear from the list.

Good morning Mr Sun. Great to have you with me on my today's exploration.
I thought of revisiting this site - old Jurong road to snap some scenes and also collect an item nearby.

Cave Path

Hi Blog,

Yippee! Long weekend and that Monday morning was mine! Time to go for a short exploration.

Thanks Heaven for such good weather!
Yes, as titled. Today I was thinking of knowing where and how to get to the cave in Singapore. Based on the map app, it seemed like an easy task.

Old Jurong Road B Trail

Hi Blog,

Yes, as what you were reading, today morning I planned to explore a new place; not new but an old place going to be removed sooner.

Thank goodness, today's weather was good. I guess it is my daily ritual to look at the sky and greet Mr Sun.
So you may ask me what is Old Jurong Road B trail. The letter B means Bulim. I don't put on the title and separate it because... Mine isn't official or more informative than those pages here and here; mine was just a personal journal experience.

Forgotten Jurong Crocodile Reptile Park

Hi Blog,

To continue from my previous trip, exploring an unknown closed factory (here), WS suggested exploring one more place nearby. Jurong Hill and Jurong Crocodile Reptile Park. After we were near there, the former Bird Park was near too. We wondered, can we enter or not?

As we stood in front of the closed and highly secured Bird Park entrance I looked up; I didn't notice that there was such beautiful stained glass before. At least, I got to see it before it was gone.
Since it was closed and let's give that place a bit of time, I would love to visit there again. Then next was to visit Jurong Hill.

Unknown Waste and Strap Company

Good Morning Blog,

Remember that I told you that my urbex journey was coming to an end because not many places in Singapore were covered?

Thanks, WS for agreeing to bring me to places which added to my urbex experience.
Today we will be exploring one place as titled. Location won't be revealed due to it is best to keep it away from public eyes and low profile.



Abandoned Cage

Hi Blog,

Based on the title, you know that I found something new! Yes! Someone found an abandoned cage! It was a large enclosure - perhaps it was used to cage a T-Rex 🦖

Let's follow the journey with me on finding the cage
Credit our little pink urbex explorer for sparing the location and now it is my turn to find it myself!

Lorong Terigu

Hi Blog,

The next day in the morning... Yes, I was still on leave. Do I waste it on sleeping? I will procrastinate if I just let go... Anyway, I pushed myself to wake up as usual...

I looked at the sky and knew Mr Sun was waiting for me.
Where shall we go this time? Mr Sun suggested "Lorong Terigu", a pin which I made on the map a long time ago and yet explored.

Tuas TV World

Good Afternoon Blog,

This must be one of my most impromptu hikes ever or my first impromptu hike. Why so? As I was transforming myself into a pig or couch potato, I browsed a fb post which caught my attention.

Someone visited TV World which I don't even know such a place exists before. You can Google TV World (link)
What was it so special which made me give up my transformation? Yes, as titled, it was Tuas TV World.

Dairy Farm Quarry and Old Bukit Timah Railway Station

Hi Blog,

Today was the day when I decided to explore new places - a new quarry and an old railway station! I happened to bump to a post from a cycling group about the awesome quarry which I always want to visit since young and a railway station that many cyclists know, so I asked the name of the place and it is located somewhere near where I passed by before during the hike. The overall feeling was exciting! :D

Thanks God for good weather :)

Thank you K for accompanying

Hi Blog,

Today was the day when K, one of my ex-pupils from PV willingly hiked with me. I have to mention this because initially there were four pupils who wanted to go on a hiking trip with me. But due to their busy schedule... three of them can't turn up... K who is one of the quiet ones whom I knew since primary school, was actually determined to go on the hike and felt bad if he backup due to lack of accompanies... His moves were much appreciated. :)

Nice cool weather today

First time With WJ and XY

Hi Blog,

It has been a while since WJ asked me to engage in an outdoor activity, today Sunday morning, we will be visiting Singapore Quarry.

I did my cardio workout in the morning which I hoped to maintain.

Hike with my Ex-pupils

Hey Blog,

Today was a happy experience when I got to hike with my ex-pupils, Eugene and YueMin, together with my childhood brother, Wilson. We decided to hike from MacRitchie to Bukit Timah to Singapore Quarry.

As this is their first time visiting such places

so I Showed them the tranquillity level of MacRitchie

Visit Singapore Quarry and Railway Track again

Dear Blog,

Today Friday morning, I took leave to go for a hiking trip and relax, and I invited Xuanyi to join me on this trip, Since he stayed in Brazil since young, it will be a great way to introduce Singapore special place. So I brought him to Singapore Quarry.

After 2 hours walk from MacRitchie to Singapore Quarry, finally we arrived.

Due to it was Friday, there is quiet and deserted. 

To Singapore Quarry Again

Hi Blog,

Today Sunday morning I decided to go for a hike, so I filled up the water in my newly bought water bag which I used it three times. When I woke up by my mother from my tied up bed, my whole living room was wet - the water bag was leaking!!!!

I have no choice but to use it for the hike... so my mother put two plastic bags to avoid further leakage.
I will hike with it then travel to QueenTown centre to buy a new one... :(
