A fter a week of hard work, my friends and I decided to take a scroll at “Southern Ridges”.  We started off the stroll from behind Harbourfront MRT Station (click for Google Map) , through the forests of Marang Trail to Mount Faber Park. Have not been exercising for quite some time.  Getting a little tired already :) However, I enjoyed the greenery along the way.  It is indeed a pleasant and refreshing stroll back to the nature. Sigh! so many steps to climb… Finally, reaching the pavilion at Mount Faber. Sweat !! Let’s take a good deep breath of the fresh air. ha… hu… Look at the orange flowers there. So beautiful! We took a slow stroll while enjoying the cool breeze here. Let’s go to the Pavilion to take a sit.  Enjoy the view and the cooling breeze.
