Pulau Ubin ~ 26 Oct 08

Kampung on the island

Rubber trees grown on island

Balai Quarry - I wonder what the Government will do with this piece of abandoned quarry. There was talk last year on reopening the quarry for mining when the granite chips from Indonesia was disrupted. I supposed that they have resolved the issue.

My bicycle which I rent on Pulau Ubin for S$8/day.

Another view of my bicycle at the Balai Quarry

While cycling, I saw a wild boar in front crossing my path. By the time I stopped, took out the camera and snapped, the wild boar was already running for cover. The shot was not clear due to hand movement trying to capture the animal in a hurry.
Someone injured being carried on a stretcher onto a medical boat. The injured has blood on her hand and her head was restricted. Probably had a fall and injured the neck. Many city dwellers are not aware of the danger of outdoor activity.
