The sky was cleared and there wasn't much cloud to block the sun :D

The boat ride.

The sea peace keeper.

Nikhil cooling himself in the unbearable weather.

The tide was low on that day.

Though we don't get to see much of the marines life, but still, we had a good view.

 

 

Smile! On the Jejawi Tower.

Pekan Quarry view.

It's a fruitful Ubin Tour.
:D

Pulau Ubin Tour - Nature Walk on 5 Dec 2009

Sorry for the late post (again.. very sorry.. )
Was busy for the past week (ok, I admit, I was lazy actually, i cant be koaLAZYmonkey for no reason).
We had a Nature Walk tour 2 weeks ago, and it was a good one.
(Disclaimer: Some of the photos were taken by my iphone, apologize for the poor quality.)

A classic bum boat image.

The weather don't sound promising actually.

And they are.........(from left) Oliver, Katey, Haylea, Lauren (in front of Haylea), Teddy and Chad.

We were hit by slight shower while on the way to Check Jawa, and we were slightly "injured"by the rain.

All was good, and we took a walk down the jetty to feel the stormy weather and experiencing the high tide.

Yes, it was high tide!! But the breeze was good, so was the air.

We took a break at the "mini zoo", the old Orchid garden.

Those were the days when they were useful, now, they are a display.
They have done their parts for the history.

We paddled on for a while, and we stopped at Pekan Quarry for some photo shoots. 

And I discovered something amazing - YOUNGSTERS CAN'T READ.
We seriously need to take a look at the educational system!
Despite the warning sight, young visitors were still taking the risk to walked the closed road.

Sun, wind to power Ubin

Taking a break after listening to the myth.

Models, not posers.
When asked for a shoot, they just stand still, but I believe they can do better.

Karen & Peter on a honeymoon to Singapore, leaving their 3 boys at home.

Due to high tide, they don't get to see much at Chek Jawa.

Bird's eye view of the surrounding on top of Jejawi Tower.

They met my friend, Jack, who posed for them.

A return of good fate.

It has been sometimes since I've done any Pulau Ubin tour.
Yes, certainly, I miss the island, and was surprised by the changes over this short period.
I have done a couple of small tours in between but it was not posted.

Took a really long break for some development,
I apologize for the disappearance.

I am back again.
providing a better tour experience for you.

Its an interesting tour concept...

Why dont the government agency thinks of changing Pulau Ubin into a farm?
Or even brings back the memories of how a farm is like, sharing the past with the young generation?

Ubin Tour on 7 Feb 2009

The latest Pulau Ubin Nature Walk tour was conducted on 7 Feb, with 5 hostel guests.

It was a long day, cycling up-&-down tour, and everyone was exhausted after the fulfilling tour.

Picture speak a thousand words, I should let the pictures do the talking.

Campsite set up & Campfire at Pulau Ubin

Camp site set up & campfire on Pulau Ubin is nothing new, but this is a total different experience for me.

This project was done by UNLESAH, for our client, Mediamorphosis, for their project, Satu Family.


Our tasks for this project:
(1) Set up a campsite so that individual group will follow, &
(2) a Campfire for the night shooting.

The team comprises of:

Vik (on far left), Han (in the centre), and Justin (far right)

(1) Set up a campsite

This is the campsite that we set up, and the individual group will have to do exactly the same.
Basically, there were 2 bashas, and a flag pole.

(2) Campfire
First, we need to set up a Tiki Torch path, so that the video crew could shoot the participants walking thru the path to the "Tribute Council".


Then, came the main fire.
We have to ensure that the fire was bright enough for the production crew to do a proper shot.


It was just a 1-day project, but there was so much fun and energy involved.
I am sure that the participants have a total different experience while they were on Pulau Ubin.
