Cat
Saw this cat not sure if it was a stray or someone's pet.
It had a beautiful black and white coat, so I could not resist taking a photo of it.
Then suddenly the cat was very still and aiming at something
It was trying to attack a bird nearby but I could not manage to take a photo of the bird cause the bird manage to fly away before it became the cat's lunch..lol
I guess the cat must be very disappointed at losing its meal so it turned to us but too bad we aint suitable to be its lunch...lol

My World Tuesday - The Rail Mall
The rail mall is located in Bukit Timah Singapore. Bukit Timah is considered the most expensive district in Singapore. There are many eateries and restaurants located in here. The prices are affordable in here and I spotted many nice restaurants. Wonder why I did not come here before...lol.
Parking is a problem at the rail mall especially during the weekend but there's a MRT train station under construction just at the far left of the photo below. The line is known as the downtown line.
Please visit "That's my World" for other parts of the world.

Skywatch Friday - The Green Corridor - Coconut Trees
Continuing from my post on the Green Corridor, besides just viewing the railway tracks along the green corridor, there are so many greenery surrounding the tracks.
So many coconut trees along this track and many fallen coconuts on the ground.
Coconut sprouting a new plant.
Like this photo of a dead leaf among the stones.
A sign indicating the distance of the railway track.
Residents taking a short cut to and from their home to the main road across the railway track.
For other sky watchers, please hop over to Skywatch blog.

The Green Corridor - Tracks
Saw some writtings on the wall near the bridge at Rail Mall.
Railway sleepers made of wood - some are giving way due to wear and tear.
Closer look at the joints.
The bridge where the train once runs. I guess all these will be dismantle. Cannot imagine how close the train was to the apartments. Wonder how these folks can live with the noise made by the train but surely now they might miss the train going by.
A look of the road from the bridge where the trains runs. Yes, some parts of the railway tracks is very near the road cause the railway runs from Malaysia to Tanjong Pagar right in the middle of the city. It is kind of relief that an agreement was reached and convinced KTM to move the station to the very north of Singapore and nearer to Johor Bahru so now good use can be made on the lands that the trains once run.

The Green Corridor - Taking a walk along the railway tracks
Northwest CDC has cut steps and installed railings for some kind of event, so these steps and railings helps us to climb up to the railway tracks at The Rail Mall at Upper Bukit Timah Road. It is best to wear proper shoes cause there are many slopes along the tracks and also many stones and uneven path along the tracks.
The bridge where the train once runs above the road at Upper Bukit Timah Road. I think the bridge will be dismantled too and the infrastructure return to Malaysia.
You can see huge crowd mingle around the bridge near The Rail Mall to take photos.
Even doggie has come to join in the fun in this historical moment.
Parents take the opportunity to bring their kids to walk on the tracks and taking photos for memories.
More photos coming soon.
