Prelude of Survival Camp @ Ubin

It's been a looooonnnnggggg time since i last visit ubin. During my secondary school days, i used to camp in Ubin almost every year, until i went university. We always camp at the quarry north of the Thai temple~. Pitch tents, collect firewood, cook a decent meal, sit by the fire and lie under the stars. In middle of the nite, trek to the thai temple despite the hordes of wild dogs barking at us, just to grab a can of ice cold COKE~Shhhioook!! But those were the good old days...

Finally, i'm back to ubin for camping! Just that this time we have agenda to adhere to...

The Recce crew on board Star Cruise Oceanic to Ubin!

The best part is, we don't have to pay for the cruise as there's a fund raising event in Ubin! The boatmen/captain refuse to accept money, saying its for charity for the Earthquake in China, & suggest us to donate the money to victims. They have a donation booth in Ubin! Any greedy men would have keep the money & smile cunningly. Given the kind nature of us, we donated the money for the victims~. God bless us! nono, i mean god bless them. =)

Surprised to find there's Getai in ubin!!

The Gao Siao Xing Dong ah Nan is there as host, damn funny. Din know ubin also so HIP! & it's already 1030pm!! Ah Nan says in Hokkien, "don worry about being too loud although its 1030pm, we're in ubin! ask the police come catch us loh!" Lol
