tampines eco green

it's been a while since we last went to visit parks.  during the holiday on oct 25, we went to tampines eco green park.  the park is visible from the mrt.  we've always wanted to visit it, but katam rules... so there.  we finally went and it was such a beautiful day :) 

the journey started via the park connector.  such clean kanals and esteros :) 

 

i'm lousy with directions so please don't rely on my literature regarding instructions on how to get there. :p all i know is we walked (more of i followed), and we just found ourselves in the park.  so lush!  there was a carpet of green grass.  keyla jogged a lot... wearing slippers.  walang basagan ng trip :p

 

there were also bodies of water like the ones below.  i tell you it will never fail the nature-lovers :)

 

and more winding lush paths

 

this one's pretty interesting.  i think they are trying to make fences by filling the pole paths (seemingly made of concrete) with branches.  i'm not sure what it's for, but it sure looks good :)

 

i was also very happy to see aratiles trees :)  childhood memories alert! i look back to days when lolo would take us jogging in the pangmayamang multinational village.  we'd pass by aratiles trees, pick aratiles, and eat them at home.  literally sweet!

look at these masterpieces :) my Father created these!

at ang swing na inagaw ni keyla.  mom and 2 daughters were riding this swing.  keyla approached and said, "want keyla to wait for your turn?"  hahaha kinonsensya ang nanay.  ayun napaalis tuloy nang maaga, and we ended up riding the swing.

  

from the park, we went to tampines mall and ate dinner at subway.

it was a lovely day!

when we arrived home, turbo mode to clean the house for tito's visit. yay!
