ok i can't can't be bothered to wrtie about what happened.


so it'll be just photos.

(this ain't all! i'll be posting more later)

Warning: Extrememely long-winded and picture-filled entry. so scram if u can't stand crap! and yes. by that i mean u. =p

remember my post on 简单就是美？and the gorgeous 林佩芬? I decided to follow her footsteps today by exploring some of the less-known places of Singapore and taking beautiful (at least to me) photos!!

And for today it'll be: TUAS BEACH!

(pauses for the "there's a tuas beach?!" thoughts from you guys)

it all started from this article. and so i decided to check out how true the article really is.

so after breakfast i set off, taking 172 to boon lay interchange, and then 182 to tuas south ave 4. Hm.. 182 sounds damn familiar. then i realised why.

So one thinks of Tuas, these few things come to mind.. and expectedly, i saw them all..

But where's the beach? recall from article "...Look for a large, green, mostly treeless field along Tuas South Ave 4."

ok so i found this path.

well. it led me to the back of some factory. -_- but nevertheless, i took nice photos!

then after walking for almost 10mins, i finally found the field. so after crossing it, i came to:

not exactly a beach, but then again, nice photos!

there were ropes and wooden crated strewn on the rocks, i guess they must have been thrown into the sea from the ships and washed onshore, kinda interesting too.

I was then stopped by this drain, and have to make a small detour.

after walking along the rocky coast, it finally came to what i think is the beach the article mentioned.

Kinda disappointing, i thot it would be, like, wider. but it is reclaimed land, so i suppose it'll do.

this part of the beach was lined with casuarina trees, which were tall and huge, not something u would expect to find along the beach.

This particular one has wilted, but i thought it's colour was quite pretty with the greener ones in the background.

one strange thing i found.

people actually lived/ lives here? or maybe it was the shelter of some illegal immigrant. -_-

Further down, the beach lied next to this interesting field.

looks kinda desert-ty, and the orange stems made it look kinda unique too.

ok then i seriously got stuck as the beach was separated by this canal (or large drain if u wanna call it that)

So i went back up.

It's been a long time since i've since such a huge area of the sky, not blocked by skyscrapers and ppl taller than me.

Kinda worried at first as i didn't know how to get back, but found this.

Then it was the end of the trip.

In conclusion, well, the sun was great initially, it didn't smell like ECP (u know the sea saltish smell??), but the ships in the opp shore was quite an eye sore, and it wasn't exactly that clean.

Would i go there again? maybe if i was really really down and need to to go somewhere. =>

ok maybe it's not that long afterall. but there's still lots of photos!
