Travellogue
Today's post will have more stories to accompany the pictures....
We started our singapore trip from the royal town of Klang some 400+ KMs away from Johore Bahru City at the southern part of Peninsular Malaysia.
i drove down to Johore Bahru city together with bose, macho, dark kai, and another friend freak fries. We started our journey very early on Saturday... 2:30am .
We then reached Johore Bahru at about 8am, because we stopped along the way and i didnt drove my ferrari.
Singapore is situated at the southern part of Peninsular Malaysia and is linked by a causeway bridge. From Johore, one can opt to take a bus, taxi, drove in, by plane, train or you could be just like us.... walk across the bridge.
We were seen walking from Malaysia's custom building....
And now crossing the Causeway bridge. See the apartments? That is Singapore... about 1-2km away. As you can see, there were horrible traffic jam on the bridge for it was the peak hour.
That was also the main reason why we walked instead of taking the bus.
Everyday, thousands of singaporean and amalysian crossed the bridge....to work, to leisure, to shopping.
Singaporean loved to come to Johore for their daily grocerries shopping, for it is cheaper while
Malaysian travel to singapore to work in various factory, port and offices, for Singapore has better pay and the exchange rate was S$1 = RM 2.25.
This is the scene u get when u walk across the Causeway bridge.
Seen here is the Johore City skyline and of course with the signboard, 50km/hour
Well, no,.....this is not what u get at the other end of the bridge...
This is the Central Business District of Singapore...or simply just Singapore City.
Singapore city is situated at the southern part of Singapore island at the river-mouth of Singapore River.
Much buildings and activities are concentrated along the river....
like the fame Esplanade, the Clarke Quay pubs area, the CBD, the City Hall (green colour dome on the top picture)
This is a not so good night view of the Singapore Esplanade, Theater-on-the-bay.
The local called it the DURIANS, a type of tropical fruit...very tasty but to foreigners, u either hate it or love it, for Durians smell like rotten rat?? hahaha no...
to me..just great.
