Whew...... I never had picnic for a long long long long long time... You get my drift. And been looking forward to this picnic with Miki. Cos' we planned it quite a long time ago.So anyway, we split the job of preparation... and we ended up with Sandwiches of a few variety and chips with salsa dips and a surprise for Miki (pudding made my moi)....... Took MRT to Habour Front, took taxi up to Mount Faber The Jewel Stone and then hiked up abt 1km to our final destination.It was scorching hot, but we had the wind in our faces and our hair. I looked totally like a madwoman with my hair all over my face. =.- But it was cooling, not too hot. The best part? NO RAIN!!!!!! ^_^ The thing that kills picnic is the same thing that kills BBQ... Rain. So no rain today was amazing for us.Took alot of self-shots pictures, why waste the moment? Also took videos of sandwich making, like I've said. The afternoon was so fun and so cool. Literally. There were wind blowing while we were eating and chatting away, which at one point of time blew the ants around us onto the picnic mat! :OAnd we became the ants killers. Normally I wouldn't go around smacking ants for no darn reason, but then today they were too much! In numbers and also... How could they steal out food!?!?!Hahahas, but then we witnessed the funeral and the sentimental side of ants. The bodies of the dead ants were being sort of "surrounded" by other ants, and the way the other ants walked one round around the DB and moved on, it's like how we humans do. It was pretty cool.Then we hiked down from Henderson Waves(our destination), across the bridge. It was so humid by then we put on sunscreen and i opened my umbrella, which made me look so 'Auntie'... But then I rather look auntie than get sunburn. LOLZ!By the time we reached the bottom of the track, it was evening. And time for dinner.Well, that's another story! ;) But I totally enjoyed the dinner, just as it should be. ^^
