I knew that everything is going to be hard when we decided to move to Singapore, I just didn't realize that even recreation is going to be a pain. My wife Grax and I went to the
MacRitchie Reservoir Park to do some trekking, we love to be outdoors every chance we can get, so last Saturday we packed some stuff and our trustee camera and off we went, first stop was to the
Ministry of Manpower to file the documents for my work permit, then hopped on the bus to the MacRitchie Reservoir. We've been there once but did not stay too long, we planned to go on a picnic the first time but the local goons (Monkeys) tried to steal our food and it was too humid to do anything that day so we ended up at the mall, (-next best thing to being outdoors). But this time we came prepared, although I was wearing jeans because I had to go to MoM and I figure we'll end up at Ang Mo Kio Hub soon enough, Grax did bring me a change of clothes and it came very handy half of the way to the 5km hike it felt really heavy to be wearing jeans.
Although it was hard walking the trail and the monkeys were being territorial, we managed to capture some cool pix along the way and the experience burned some calories and a few work related stress for both of us.
