GINNY AND SANDY

they didn't seem too excited about the food

It was a while since I last posted photos of Ginny and Sandy. They have been with me to restaurants, cinema and Bay South and Bay East.

CHILDREN'S PLAYGROUND

Ok, in this hot weather, the children's playground officially won hands down for being the most popular location of the Bay South garden. The human density packing into that area is staggering on weekends, with half the crowd sitting under the giant leaf shelter while their kids run around the water play area.

Just look at the number of people under the shelter

CLOUD FOREST PART 1

With the recent opening of the Gardens by the Bay's Bay South gardens to the public on 29 Jun 12, the secret is finally out.


This is one of my few visits to the Cloud Forest conservatory and I am sure there are lots of photos of the conservatory on the internet. I will let my photos speak for itself. Greeting visitors at the entrance is the highest man-made waterfall in Singapore. Some of these plants are truly amazing and I love the beads of water droplets collecting on the leaves of the conifers right after the misting. The Rhododendrons are also spectacular and look almost like fake plants.

The giant snail sculpture and totem pole add a mysterious allure to the tropical montane forest look.
