Beach near Safra Bungalow Resort at Changi Coast

Today is My World Tuesday, so I will show you the sea that is near the resort at Changi Coast. I will continue with posting photos of the resort tomorrow.


From the beach, we could view so many cargo ships in the middle of the sea. It may not be a pretty beach/sea but plenty of ships passing our little country meant a lot to our economy. We used to be the busiest port in the world but that title has since gone to Shanghai. For more info. click here.

A short video showing you the many ships anchoring at our sea.

Safra Bungalow Resort (Part 1)

I am back from the weekend holidaying in a corner of Singapore. We rented a two storey bungalow resort in Changi Coast quite near to the Changi Airport. Spend about four days there. And no we cant find quiet time in here because the entire family and friends will be there making lots of noises partying (my eldest son's 21st birthday party) and BBQ and the nearby changi airport with the frequent aeroplanes flying in and out of the airport can be very loud.....lol. (Will talked about those huge planes at later posts).

These are how the bungalows looked like.



This side gate allows us to walk to the nearby beach where I am standing now.
You have to return to visit my later posts to see how the bungalow looked like. :)

Mini Park

I am going away again over the weekend but I dont need a passport with me...lol. Will only be in a corner of Singapore , far from the city life , just to relax (hopefully) in a beautiful resort.


This is a mini park beside my brother's flat. It can be used for multiple purposes. The mini park itself had a amphitheatre, fitness corner, children playground, jogging path, BBQ facilities, etc.

The big green field can be used for playing soccer or holding any activities. In these photos, you could see the workers putting up scaffolding for a chinese festival. The bigger rectangle platform is for prayers and dining areas while the small squarish platform will be for chinese concert.


Below are two short video showing the activities in the park.

Take a closer look in the mini park, you could see people jogging and exercising.

Merlion from boat view

This is the famous Merlion. I took many photos of the Merlion previously but were taken from land. These two photos of the Merlion were taken from a boat. You could see my other photos of the Merlion in here.



The Merlion was first designed as an emblem for the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) in 1964 – the lion head with a fish body resting on a crest of waves quickly became Singapore’s icon to the rest of the world.The fish tail of the Merlion symbolises the ancient city of Temasek (meaning “sea” in Javanese) by which Singapore was known before the Prince named it “Singapura” (meaning “lion” (singa) “city” (pura) in Sanskrit), and represents Singapore’s humble beginnings as a fishing village.
