Botanic Gardens
We really love visits to Botanic Gardens as they make us feel really calm and relaxed. And the best of all, there aren't much people there. And sad to say that Singaporeans seem to be the minority present at Botanic Gardens. We have passed by lots of tourists, Caucasians residing here and domestic helpers strolling the dogs. Simply don't feel like we are In Singapore at all.
Ha. It's actually not easy to climb on it and take this picture! And this is a high branch which is deeply rooted to the ground. It is really amazing plant and can you see the camera behind me? Think people are afraid that visitors may cut off this branch.
My Gwen kept talking and didn't mind the heat too. We were amazed that even though we were there at 12pm, the shady trees in Botanic Gardens made the walkways cooling and sheltered.
Beautiful mother and daughter picture at Casa Verde.
We went there during Gwen's third month birthday and we saw people planting this plant. These bird of paradise are really beautiful and the earthworms in Botanic Gardens are HUGE. Can't believe it. Think the birds should just come here to eat them, rather than to live near the coffeeshops and eat left overs (so unhealthy). These greeneries really make us feel very happy.
We passed by a Heritage tree and I tell you, it's such a huge and special tree, and it even has a camera! How cool is that! Tembusu tree has such strong branches! Really sturdy.

Love this picture as Eve sat on the branch. This Tembusu tree has gone through so many events like World Wars, The Great Depression, la la... I thought of climbing higher, but was afraid it may break and I will be on the news.
We didn't have much 'we' time and we enjoyed ourselves munching the sandwich bought from Gastronomia. Quite salty though. Love this picture so much.

Ain't she cute? Yawning away as it was her nap time in her yaolan at home. It's such an enjoyable trip with just the three of us! Relaxing.

We have yet to bring Josh and Kate to this part of Botanic Gardens as it's quite the inner part from the Botanic Gardens MRT station. Probably we will bring them the next round. A great escapade and an awesome date!
