-warning, long post ahead-

I think I've burnt like 180000000000 calories on my 18th birthday. Ever tried skating from East Coast Park Macdonalds all the way along the new park connector to Changi Village?

The park connector alone is a whooping 7740m! That is 7.74km! That does not include the distance on Changi Beach and ECP. The stretch of Changi beach we covered was around 3km. I dont know about ECP though, there's no markings on the road to show how much we covered =[

We skated from Mac to Bedok Jetty and all the way up until this country club at the end. I wonder how much is that?


Photo taking started at Bedok Jetty...


Look at all the fishes!


It was a beautiful day, really.


This is the first rest point along the park connector.

This rest point was really cool. It's like a personal beach. Small and cosy. And you can actually see planes taking off above your head!


Ta-da~! Hope you enjoy your flight =P


The never ending park connector

This section is actually running beside the airport. How cool is that! From beginning of runway, to the end.


Control Tower~

You can actually see planes taking beside you when skating. Ok, there's the fence and the road and the plants. But the planes are so big, it feels like they're just beside =D


Changi Beach at last!


Saw this hug-ass ship very close to the shore.


The rudder is like half above the water?

Notice the white line with markings. I believe that is the depth this ship can go up till. Obviously this stretch of sea was kind of shallow for a ship like that.


Saw Santa plane! It's actually Quantas. But it's like a red plane, like wth. Hahaha.


Changi Jetty


Had dinner at Changi Village - Famous Nasi Lemark!


Sunset at Changi Beach


Tai yang gong gong shui jiao liao...

On the way back, I decided that I should take some photos as proof that we actually skated that much!


The end of Changi Beach...


Start of Park Connector....

Yup, 7.74km. Must be the wonderful dinner, we were actually very fast on the way back. Didn't stop at all. *feels so fit* Hahahaha.


The park connector at night..

It was actually brightly lit. But my camera's night mode kinda sucked? So don't be afraid if you're planning to cycle here at night. (:


Sense of accomplishment!!!!


Observe the picture..

NParks did not paint the "skater" sign on road! How can they forget about skaters!!! But I guess we're like the only crazy enough skaters to like skate so long. Haha. But it's true though. We did not see any other skaters on the park connector itself.


Since NParks did not paint any "skaters" sign on the park connector, I will DIY!!!! Closely shaped after the "skaters" sign on ECP.

We actually found out something cool. If you put a thumb over the camera flash when taking a picture. The picture will have a red tint!



Red tint red tint, photo have a red tint. Haha. Alrightys, I think this post is long enough already.
Byes and jia you for exam everyone~!
