Pulau Ubin Part 2 // 240215
Chinese New Year is finally here!!! Anyway, that explains why I continued part 2 so late... But I finally moved my lazy ass to blog this post :-)
Basically, a continuation from part 1, was that we were cycling go Chek Jawa and came across a pretty bridge so we just dismounted our bike to take pictures hahaha :p We cycled and cycled and cycled and cycled...... Finally!!! We were @ Chek Jawa Wetlands! :-)
So bicycles were not allowed to enter because the floorings (for the broad walk) are made of wood so they are afraid the bikes would damage it. They do provide bicycle parking at the entrance :-) I read online before heading there that we need locks to secure the bikes for fear of thefts yknw. However, when we reached, the bicycle uncle assured us that "no one would want to steal" and set us off without bicycle locks. And indeed, he wasn't wrong :-) Nobody stole our bikes!
The above picture is me being mischievous & climbing onto where the bicycles would park. Photo spam ahead!
The photos were all taken before we entered Chek Jawa Wetlands! The most recent photo is the entrance :-)
We then decided to walk towards the broad walk first, giving the bird watching tower a miss and saving it for the last.
Another picture spam!

So these were all the pictures taken on the broad walk. If I wasn't wrong, it was high tide and we couldn't see the mangroves and all the animals people raved about. We saw many crabs though! and mudskippers :-) Do check the tide level before heading there! So basically, without mangroves, we jus became the center of attraction and kept taking photos of ourselves :-) The broad walk is made of wood as you can see, and is really a prime location for photos! Because of good lighting (aka sunlight) so yes, take lots of pictures! :-)
After the broad walk, we went to the bird watching tower. There were several series of steps we had to climb to reach to the top but trust me, the hard work and sweat is totally worth it! Photo spam ahead (AGAIN)
We bought food (bread) before we headed there and consumed them on the bird watching tower :-) Y'all can do that too! It's quite a good place to stop and rest & take a break :-) There are so many more places we went so I guess this post shall stop here because it is getting a little lengthy :p So... stay around for part 3! :-)
With loveeeeeee,
