Christmas Tree at Raffles City

Every year end, my part of the world would decorate the streets from Orchard Road to Bras Basah Road with fairy lights and christmas trees and other decorations.

Hubby and me were walking along Bras Basah Road with not many crowds and it was quite peaceful and romantic to see these fairy lights and the christmas tree twinkling away.

Ut Oh, I spotted one part of the tree not twinkling, the lights might have blown. This photo was taken on 17th November 2008. They should have been repaired by now.

Closer look at the tree and two short videos showing the tree twinkling.



Come visit me on Skywatch Friday, I will post more fairy lights decorated along the streets.

Time for spa?

This is my first attempt to join Pink Saturday.

I have so many pink stuff in my cupboard so I thought it would make a good photography subject for pink saturday.

CC of lacenribbonroses is always so kind to teach me to lay a fabric as decoration/background for my subjects. Thank you CC. Psst....underneath is an ugly old armchair....lol.

Now does the mini tub and the soap and toiletries remind you that it is time to go for a spa. :)

For more pinky participants, please visit Beverly of How Sweet The Sound.

Sky Watch-Dark Clouds

These photos were taken last week. Weather like these are so common end of the year. It is the raining season. So we need to plan our outdoor activities carefully, if it rains then we proceed to Plan B outing. :)

You can guess what happen after the dark clouds over take the entire area. Yes, very heavy downpour.

Who lived in this little shell?

Continued from yesterday post, who lived in the shell?

No matter how we tried to coax the mysterious creature out, it does not show itself. So my brother told us to place the shell back in the sea water on the rock and it would appear by itself.

True enough the little guy decided to come out, it was a hermit crab.....:) Watch the short video how it crawl away from the rock.

My niece and nephews were so excited by our find and of course I am also very excited...hehehe...did you see the kid in me?

For those who guess it is a snail, you could be tricked by the hermit crab cause the hermit crab always borrowed someone's shell when it outgrown its old "borrowed" shell. That shell on its back must be a borrowed shell from a snail....lol.

We decided to let it leave it alone and let the hermit crab returned to the sea.

Sea creatures at the beach

My post for my world tuesday is about our beaches. Although Singapore is a shopping and food paradise, we too have beautiful nature around our little island too. You can view these beautiful natures in sea creatures blog, butterflies in Singapore, flowers in Singapore, and many more beautiful blogs with beautiful places of Singapore.

These rocks can be slippery so we need to be careful when we step on top of them. There are many little sea creatures hidden in these rocks.

On closer look, we found many snails in them.

There is this huge sea shell that I picked and gave to my little niece for her sea shell collection but my nephew pointed that someone lives in the shell....lol

Just to keep you all in suspense, you need to return to find out who lived in there...lol
