Pulau Ubin Cycling Trip

Okay, I know this post is outdated, but please don't complain. I was too tired clearing all the backlog deals I have in my folders. Busy is the only word to describe the past one week.

Here's the photos my friends took during our Pulau Ubin cycling trip last Sunday. It was fun cycling in the kampung in one of the Singapore's islands, looking at the 1960s Singapore. This is my first time to ride on the bumpy roads with rocks and sands on them. There were 11 of us and I get to know a few more new friends. And we had a nice seafood lunch, it was cheap for only $27.50 each!


We're on a bumboat heading to Pulau Ubin from Changi ferry point.


We get ourselves maps before starting our adventure. But, none of us actually read that map once we get up on the bikes. We just cycle and stop for the direction maps on the roadside.

Here we are before our journey begins, all smiling!!! You'll see how we look like after few hours of cycling in the next few pics. :P

This is me on the bike and with my Korean colleague behind me.

Here's the photo of all the leng lui of the day.

And here are all the leng chai.

This is the 1960s toilet. The aunty selling coconuts said "You may go if you're daring enough." when my friends asking where the toilet is. None of us dare to use it. I didn't even dare to walk near it.

Enjoying the chilling coconut water.

This is the famous must-call dish in Singapore - Chilli Crab!!! But it's not my favourite dish as the gravy is not hot and salty enough.

This is my favourite, the fish is so sweet and fresh!

I think I ate a quarter of this - fried daun ubi with sambal. As my friends are mainly from China, they don't fancy sambal dish.

Steam squid, the dish I ordered. Not bad, but the portion is too little for the 11 of us.

Ma po tau fu. Very hot leh, the taste is just so so.

Fish soup. Nice!!!
The Caucassian girls at next table were building a tower out of the cans. We contributed our cans too.

We all eating like hungry ghosts after a more than an-hour-wait for the food to come.

See how clean the plates are!
