Walkathon

Went with ah bao on an unorganised trip, just walking aimless around unfamiliar areas. Hoping to spot some treasure and jewels in the travel. This is a trip not for ppl who do not wish to sweat, who mind walking around with no objective, no purpose, it can be a trip like walking in a middle of nowhere under the sun, drenched by the rain... Things we discover while travelling...

Spotted some people using fishing lines, catching fishs found in the big canals. They simply move the line in a up and down manner, to entice the fish to get hook. I dont dare to take photos, cos they are foreign workers. Worried about them questioning my motive of taking pictures. Once they got the fish, they will grab it and run to their home in a nearby low storey building. The buildings look kinda run down. I took a peek at inside and saw the stairs they used. It reminds me of the stairs in those old buildings seen in "LU SUO NANYANG" drama.

A bird caught my eyes. Tried to be a national graphic photographer, i use my camera phone. The bird turned up to look like an egg in the shot. Also seen cranes around the area. I remember seeing these white cranes near the shallow waters of pulau tekong.
Need a better camera Ah bao at the factory building outside
Passed by a factory warehouse which offer discount prices on clothings. They carried a variety of brands from g2000, nike, adidas, fifa and more.

Deserted house
There is also a house beside the warehouse. Looks like a malay heritage building. There is a nursery beside this building which also look spooky in daytime.

Found a obstacle course centre with rock climbing facilities, an low wall with artifical grips (quite low), a firefox like structure and other stuff at a nearby town council community. Didnt know a neighbourhood town council community will have these facitities asides from Pasir Ris and East coast park.

This structure actually has a wire attached to another end of a identical pole. 1 is suppose to walk on the wire w/o falling. Think if some1 can do it, may as well join the circle. haha.
This journey took around 6 hours of walking time. Along the way, we discovered Superbowl center with arcade games at 50c per game, 3.8 buck per bowling game at weekend and pool in 1 center. Also went pass famous Pungol nasi lemark stall with long queue comparable to those at Singapore Pool. The rice smell nice. But we didnt stop over to eat. Maybe we are too exhausted from the mindless walking.

Whats the purpose of the journey i ask myself to justify my time spent? Perhaps we just want to instill some random adventure by exploring areas we hadn't came across before to satisfy our instinct of adventuring like our ancestors did.
