A Walk Along The Promenade

Last Saturday, a group of us went for a walk along a promenade. It was a very nice walk route with plenty to see.

Unfortunately, plenty of others have the same idea as well. So, the road was too crowded to be comfortable. Apart from the walkers, there were joggers and cyclists. Just too many people, in my opinion, sharing not too wide a road.

It was particularly difficult if you are trying to take pictures. People crossing in front of you, cyclists coming at you in both directions. You had to look out and be very cautious to stay out of harm’s way.

It wasn’t a very long route – only about 5.4 kilometres. In between the chatting, walking and taking of photographs, one and a half hours slipped by without our noticing it. It was fun, and an enjoyable walk.

Somewhere on the island, there was rain. But luckily, we were not heading in that direction.

People everywhere. Busy, busy, busy.

We didn’t stop to smell the roses, but I did stop to take a few photos of the flowers and plants along the way.

These are Stachytarpheta Indica, also known Indian snakeweed. This is the first time I see them in red colour.

We ended up at the Gardens by the Bay, where we had something to eat for dinner.
