Leticia!

Congratulations! And in conjunction with SG Tidbits 365 Online Contest, 24seven organised a exclusive bloggers’ tour to S’pore Discovery Centre! This is the first time that I am visiting as a visitor after it’s revamp as my former workplace love to use them as a venue for National Education seminars.

I seriously think I am way too old for this place! The younger bloggers were all having fun with the various interactive there! I am beyond the age where I will try out all these types of interactive. Haha!

We also did meet Little George, the resident robot there! I first met him when I was Sec 3 during a school visit. Hmm. That was like 13 years ago? Time really flies…

Do read the experiences of the other bloggers who have went that day! Uncle Vic is really too old for this…

Leading us to places like Dairy Farm Nature Park, Singapore Quarry and the abandoned railway tracks at Sunset Way was Geng Hui, an aspiring photojournalist of 20 years experience! Here are some shots from the outing…

TK_ also brought his 2 dogs, Bear Bear and Bruno for this outing! Here’s an emo shot of Bear Bear at the Singapore Quarry and this is my favourite shot for that day!

Getting onto the railway tracks was not an easy task. We had to climb up a slope which was slippery and there were also a lot of creepy crawlers! Most of the people in the following shot totally forgotten about the experience that they had walked in a single file on the railway track. This is what I call selective memory loss!

After the shoot, some of us proceeded to Hougang for durian and after that we tried the beef noodle at Hock Lam beef! Not sure if it is due to the after taste of the durian, I don’t find the beef worth raving about.

[Yummy Durian!]

To end of the day, we visited 24seven office at Upper Serangoon Road Shopping Centre and played with Yuniko! Trust me, Nadnut is really good at playing with cats!

I am currently still looking through my shots for the day as I am still not sure which one to submit for the S’pore Discovery Centre’s SG Tidbits 365 contest! Maybe you can comment on my Facebook album and I’ll select from there?

I would like to thank 24seven for organising this photo outing and Geng Hui for bringing us around! Glad to make new friends like Choo Wee and Kenneth!
