Changi Point and Bridge Over Turbid Water

I popped by Changi Sea Sports Club to register for a kayaking expedition the following week. And here are some scenes.


Here is the infamous Bridge Over Turbid Water. Imagine doing kayaking in there. Now imagine doing capsize drill there...



You can see that after it has been refurbished, it look rather like a park. Well, I still miss the good old days at the old jetty - it's a pity I didn't take any photos, or else it would be interesting to do a before and after comparison.

The old days at Changi jetty reminds of me of the sweat and toil as an NPCC cadet in secondary school days; my first camping experience was at Ubin. NPCC campsite is at Ubin.

Also, the not so distant past in Scouting, when camping at Ubin is a regular event, and a logistic nightmare. Since there is no portable water in Ubin. You have to bring tonnes of water there from the mainland, hence, the topping up of cartons of water at the Changi Hawker Centre ( there was no toilet at the jetty unlike now) In addition, there are tents, cooking stuff and other equipments etc. Loading and unloading so many things at the Changi jetty was really an excruciatingly memorable experience.
