Gardens By The Bay # who knows what

We slip in to tourist mode now at the weekend. Bai Bai and the gang are all off to Gardens By The Bay. A pictorial history of most of the day. A lovely day in fact. You sort of forget sometimes just how good Singapore is with places like this. We walked along the river this time, a new start to this adventure for us. We also went to the Igloo things for some self-gratifying Singapore stuff - country of the future blah blah blah. Well done don't get me wrong, but ram down your throat stuff.  And then the beautifully stunning Gardens By The Bay - now Singapore that IS impressive. 

I even took a picture of MBS this time, my new best friend ha ha!!!

We dined at Satay By The Bay - lamb kebabs, BBQ chicken wings, gon gon, stingray wings with sambal, kai lan, garlic cheesy bread and a jug of icy cold Tiger. Oh yeah baby.

Bai Bai - we hope you liked the day out, we sure did. 

Thanks for being with us.

MBS from below - no denying this is seriously impressive!!!

So this is the new walkway - along the river. Absolutely stunning. Very quiet as most go the way from MBS. As you can see, this was us plus about 2 other people. Absolutely gorgeous!

How can you not like this view - the mock trees of Gardens By The Bay. WOW!!!

There's a few like this folks, me trying my macro focus capability - mind you looks bloody nice right!

A dragon made completely of drift wood, simply amazing!!!

Yep No2 playing with flowers...

No3 - but this time a cactus

No4 - a succulent, seriously beautiful little plant

What's the celebration just round the corner? Can't quite remember? Something involving monkeys and red stuff? I don't know. Anyway that aside, a very nice photo of the girls with me today for our little trip out.

Now this one I love - yep artsy fartsy, but check it out - this one looks incredible!!! Might become a canvas wall hanger!!!

Family time. Hold on where's the big grey hairy one...

Ah there she, sorry he is. About time I got in one photo. Lovely shot!!! Thanks Ollie.

WOW!!!

Stunning!!!

Yep the festival I mentioned is Chinese New Year. And it's my year, year of the monkey. Now this is weird, my flower is Chrysanthemum and apparently I am - charming, smart, intelligent, adaptable, fast, witty, sociable - clearly I must not have been born in 1968 - Mum can we check the birth cert...

Favourite flower snap from today - this would adorn any Ikea nicely!!!

You have to have the family shot of the waterfall. Ollie would have been in this, but typical teenager he was on his phone - YET AGAIN SADLY. Girls and Jude, love it!

A small fern - all alone...

And the final one for today - Cloud Forest from below in The Secret Garden. Well done Singapore. This place, even after 10 previous visits, is still just incredible...
