Day 5 July 16th A trip to Sungei Buloh.
This is a mangrove wetland Reserve. Since 2002 this area comprising 130ha of mangroves, mudflats ponds and secondary forest has been protected by the Government.
The waters of these wetlands were a long time ago fished for prawns. They contain animals, birds and plants unique to the area. It is a stopping off place for migratory birds flying from places such as Miranda in New Zealand to Alaska and Russia.
We walked and walked and walked but Fay and I managed to keep up.
We were then driven right across Singapore to an eating parlour to experience the many types of food available. I expect much of it was good but I was not felling adventurous and managed to fine some chicken and chips. Yes I was chicken as well.
We were then taken to a nearby Chinese garden which contained large statue like figures of garish colours. Fay and I sat this one out as did some of our tour friends. We were tired.
For the rest of the day window shopped, had a meal at Burger King and then retired for the day.
