Coney Island walk for Vesek day

Heard so much about Coney Island, wonder what it is like.  So on Vesak day, we went to find out. I think we spend too much time on breakfast.  Took a cab there. Sky started to get gloomy.

There is a playground and shops along the way there. Quite a walk to coney island.


 Here we are.  Very sandy.  Very rustic.  And started to rain.  We still tried to walk around.  











We only completed half of it.  The trail are all sandy walk. So pushing my weak pram under the rain is a chores.  Next time should not bring the pram.

A very different walk from our previous walks.  This is really very rural.  More to nature. We don't have much time to explore it as it was raining.  Only a few shelters around and they were quite packed.


We must come back and will need to be more prepare for this island. Still it was quite an eye opening experience for all of us.

Southern Ridges

This week we are trying a more difficult trail.

Southern Ridges.  We started off at harbour front.  Here we are. There are quite a number of steps.  

Mount Faber park.

Start of Marang trail.


Can you see the steps?



Finally at faber peak.  Really windy. Nice view.  We can see snetosa.


The other side.  

Monkey in action!

We are enjoying the view.


We need a rest with cool drinks.

Drinks with a view.

Enough of resting.  Time to walk again.


#HendersonWaves



The best part!

They have fun climbing and sliding down.  No need playground for these two monkeys.

Now to forest and hilltop walk.


Forest walk or singing forest.  Our second time here.


Can you see the bird with long tail?

My youngest got so many mossies bite from the walk.  Poor girl. Hope will recover soon.

Still we will continue our walk with better prevention measures.

We did not complete the whole trail. We stopped before alexandra arch.  We took around 3 hours including resting at faber peak.  We will be back to continue this trail.  I think only at mt faber there are many steps, where we need to carry the pram.  Once we reached faber prak, we can push the pram through out the walk.  So it is quite good.  So parents with young kids do take note.  Cant wait for our next walk.
Cheers.
