Last Sunday,
4/12/05
. I brought Limin to some of the places that I grown up at… 1st of all, I brought her to the Kranji War memorial which is just a few stone throw away from my kampong in Kranji. It was my 2nd visit of the place for the week. We spent around 2 hours there and I show Limin around the place while she took some photos.
Then we head to Lim Chu Kang Farmart. It was very crowded there as it is a Sunday. We parked our car at a less crowded car park and we head straight to the mini farm hidden at the corner of the Farmart. There are quite a number animals at the farm. From goats to Snakeheads (a kind of fish).
Then we went to the prawn fishing ground to take a look. Soon as after that we were hungry and we decided to grab some food as we travel. We bought some chicken wings, but it was too hot and we decided to have it later. We went to a few aquarium and some pet shops. Some were selling marine fishes and puppies… It was a real eye opener for limin I guess… After that we bought some sugar cane juice and head back to the car to enjoy our nice BBQ chicken wing.
Nippon Koi Hotel was our next destination. We actually wanted to go to Qian Hu at first, but me more interested to visit Koi hotel la… The place has only 1 thing that fascinated me, and tats Koi. That’s all… We walked along the Koi pond which is very very big mann.. Lots of Koi… Limin chatted with one of the workers there and we actually found out a lot of things from the Q&A session which was initiated by Limin. Guess wat we found out? Out of 3000 Koi born, only 3 or less belongs to the price winning category. Even if it from the same mother.
The worker then advice us to go visit the pond further up the farm. “ There the Koi really good quality!” says the worker. “ Go and see.”
When we reached there, all u could hear is “Wah… Wow… Wa Lao eh… Its so Big!!!”
This is really where the good quality Koi were kept mann… The colour were so rich and bright. We spent around another 45mins there looking around as there is a breeding area where the farm breed their own local price winning Koi.
Then we went to choose some Koi too… I bought 7 Koi and there were now happily swimming in my house…
Then I brought Limin to the Chua Chu Kang cemetery where I show her the training facilities of the
Civil
Defense
Academy
. Lim Chu Kang point was next. Where the PCG is… There we took lots of photos. We were there just in time for the beautiful sunset. We were happily taking photos of the sunset that we got locked at the jetty… and we didn’t realised that till the fisherman return from the kelong and advice us to leave before he locks the gate again… Then we headed home for dinner…
It was a short but happy trip for the day… Next trip in the planning? Farms in Lim Chu Kang. Go recee recee a bit next time…
