Skywatch Friday - Cable Cars

Cable cars moving from Harbour Front to Sentosa and vice versa. Took these photos from inside the ferry on the way back from Batam to Singapore.


The cable cars are newer and better. Been a long time since I sat in one of them, need to try out the new cable cars, one day.


For other sky watchers, please hop over to Skywatch blog.

View of Resort World Sentosa

View of Resort World Sentosa from my ferry on the way to Batam.
Hard Rock Hotel, Sentosa
Part of Universal Studio, construction still going on.

The above photo is that of Labrador Park which is part of Singapore which is connected to the whole island of Singapore. It was a former defence battery and we still can see traces of the fort.

You can read the history of Labrador Park from Infopedia.

According to Legend, it was believed there was an undersea tunnel between Labrador Park and Sentosa but no one can verify that. There was a research on the tunnel which shows a collapsed undersea tunnel about 20 metres underground. The tunnel was thought to allow the british soldiers easy access between islands.

One day, I will visit Labrador Park and take more photos of the park. Geez, Singapore is so small but there are so many places I have yet visited ...lol

My World Tuesday - Ferry Terminal - Trip to Batam, Indonesia

As mentioned during last week, My World Tuesday, I was going on a short trip. The answer for the question posted last week, was Batam, Indonesia. I went Island Hopping during the weekend.

Hop over to Batam Island in Indonesia. Batam is very near Singapore. It was just only about 45 mintures ferry ride from Singapore to Batam.



The queue to board the ferry that I was in during the weekend, was indeed long. But it took very fast to get all the people onto the ferry. Very fast and comfortable ferry ride.
There are so many different companies operating the different types of ferries to Batam. I will talked more about Batam in my travel blog. So if you are interested in my travel story abroad, please hop over to my travel blog.

Please visit That's My World for photos of other parts of the world.

Local Singer - Olivia Ong

I managed to get Olivia Ong's Album. Simply love her songs and her voice and the music. I could just relax on a chair and listen to her, very nice. BTW she is a Singaporean and she started her singing career in Japan and now she is back in Singapore to promote her songs.



You can listen to her song via You Tube.
