We have been very busy meeting with our new friends in Singapore from the National Parks Board. We were delighted yesterday to receive a in depth tour of the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve by Ms. Sock Ling Ng, Assistant Director, and James Gan Wan Ming, Senior Conservation Officer. We were also joined by the Director of Conservation for the National Parks Board for an enlightening discussion.
Later, we had the opportunity to visit the Horticulture Park (HortPark for short) which is a newly created center that will serve as a resource for both the industry and gardening public. We were also briefed on the exciting new project that is the Gardens by the Bay.
View the slideshow on your right for some photos of the day's adventures.
We will blog next from Penang, but until then, here is an interesting link for one of the organizations hosting our trip in Singapore. Our visit has been highlighted on their website:

Good morning fellows. Barnabas, thank you very much for the time information. I type on Fri. the 11th at noon, and soon you will rise to enjoy the day in Penang on Sat. the 12th. Not so hard to follow i guess:).
I see in your itinerary today you may encounter some monkeys roaming freely in their natural habitat. Dont get scratched lol.
Thank you all for the chance to follow your wonderful experience, and it gives some of us a chance to actually see what a blog is and how it works. I had no idea.
I am sure Jacqueline would tell me, one of the first and most important things to learn, is never to RAMBLE on--- sorry J. All take care
