Botanic Gardens






It's Boo's second off day, so we spent our evening over at the Botanical Garden, and from the way things are looking, it is apparent that the National Parks people spared no cost in the process of revamping the Botanic Garden.

What's new? - new carparks, newly added FoodCourt, rest areas.

Pavement - the path that leads us around is like a work of handicraft. "fossilized" effect was created, by imprinting different kind of leaves on the concrete all over the garden. It's beautiful.

Swan Lake - Newly done up, with only 2 swans and a duck floating around the lake, a huge statue featuring a flock of swans placed strategically in the lake.
Little duck statues placed at the side of the lake, looking like they are about to waddle into the lake to make up for the lack of ducks and swans (bird flu probably?)

Stream decorations - intricate wall carvings added to the little streams along the paths, Pretty!

The visit was definitely pictureque - That's what you get, when u splurge! Haha
I've loaded up a few pictures of Boo and i. The multishot one was done using the Olympus while we were resting at the Rest area. The remaining 2 pictures, were taken using the N70. Though alittle blurry (my hands were shaking from hunger), i think they aren't too bad, even though the boo would tsk and say.. "no auto focus".

Oh well, im contented with the phone, despite the lagginess and the 2 apparent white screen whenever i'm playing with the game "Camster". I guess i'll have to bring it into the Nokia care place to upgrade software and see what the people there can do for me, before i yakker on about the phone.
