Last week-Term 2

Despite it appearing initially that Punggol was finally going to have a full house at a social function, this did not eventuate. After work on Sunday night, end of term drinks were held at Little Saigon, beside the river at Clarke Quay. Numbers were down a bit with quite a few staff suffering from the flu and trying very hard to get better before our holiday begins next week. It was an enjoyable night and very pleasant sitting by the river.
As our final walk for the term was a night walk I spent the afternoon at Gardens by the Bay with Robert and Maria, visiting the Flower Dome. It has been a while since I was last here but it is amazing to see so many new installations...and that was before i got inside the dome!

An old favourite and some new ones.

The current display is the first-ever retro-styled floral display - Lilytopia! There were lots of rock and roll songs from the era of psychedelic music and Flower Power. There were more than 50 varieties of lilies alongside pop icons like the hippie van and guitar.

Our evening walk started at Little India. As Eric was unwell, June and I were tasked with leading the way. We explored some of the back streets on both sides of Serangoon Road before eating at the restaurant June and I had tested on Saturday night.

Robert has been here so long they have named a lane after him!
