13 Bern and Pulau Ubin

My legs are aching like mad from our day at Pulau Ubin. After crazy cycling around the island with the Lancaster gang, I am utterly exhausted. To add on, we had durians, coconuts, cheap food (twice) and climbed a dodgy looking and really tall tower that shook. I AM EXHAUSTED. I think I will definitely crash once this entry is done.

Anyway, I realised I have barely even scratched the surface on blogging about my Europe trip. So here is the 2nd Switzerland city we covered after Geneva...

Presenting.. Bern!
The bear pits which inspired the city's name
Can't remember what building this is, but we had nice pizza around here.

In the Rosengarten

Bern was really beautiful with all the fountains and clocks all over the city. I really need to crash and sleep now. So I'll edit this entry again later with more pictures.

Do you see how fair we are in the rosengarten? I think after Barcelona, Cracow and Pulau Ubin, we are at least 100 times darker. Especially for SY! 

♥♥♥

Can't wait to meet up with the NJC people tomorrow and to finally meet up with the RGPS girls!

I just hope I don't ache too much when I wake up tomorrow. ._.

6 Last Saturday in Lancaster

Sing Soc Farewell BBQ later and I really wonder how that will turn out. Suffice to say, there is a lot more than lies beneath everything.

Anyway, I am lazy to cook lunch and I think I am coming down with a sore throat from shouting too much last night. Plus, someone is happily gallivanting around Singapore in my car. He better return it with a full tank. -.-

♥♥♥

Anyway back to my Easter trip.. after New York, we spent a week in Chicago. All we did was shop, eat and sleep all day long. I'll do up a post on that once I get the pictures from Ed. So.. after Chicago, I flew back to London. Hurriedly showered, grabbed a quick but great dim sum lunch, and flew to Geneva.

and so.. Geneva!
