Checking out the Ferries

An appointment was cancelled at the very last minute and that gave me some time to explore a little. I decided to check out the Fairies Ferries.

Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal
It is rather secluded, but still may be accessed by bus service number 35 from Bedok Interchange. It’s not a big place. I don’t see many people around but the car park was pretty packed. My guess : those people drove there, parked their car and took a ferry to either Tanjung Pinang, Sebana Cove, Bintan Resorts or Batam.

Changi Ferry Terminal
It is ultra ulu man. The terminal was almost empty and I only saw 2 policemen by the terminal. Is the terminal still functioning? Yes it is, and there are only about 3 to 4 trips per day, with the earliest starting at around 8:15am. During the intervals between the departure timings, the ticketing office is shut down. The only destination to be reached from this terminal is Tanjong Belungkor. I feel that this terminal is somewhat dying.

More information about the destinations that could be reached by all of our ferry terminals can be found here.

Anyway, I find the stretch of beach beside Changi Ferry Terminal a little interesting. I wouldn’t say the beach is beautiful. (Singapore got beautiful beach meh?) Just that the trees planted along the beach are tall pine trees, making the area more shady than the usual ones we see at East Coast or anywhere in Singapore. 好浪漫哦 . Erps.. I mean 浪慢. The waters in Singapore are ever so sheltered. The waves (浪) are never strong and they always come in slowly (慢). Haha..

Nevertheless, the leisure ride along the straight, long, almost deserted Changi Coast Road was cool. :)

有一位圣者这么说：

离开世界的方法有两种，一种在光明中，一种在黑暗中。
在光明中离去的不再回来，在黑暗中离去的还要重返。
既然要走超生了死的大道，那就要学着在光明中来走；唯有面对。
唯一困难的并不是那些事，或者是外境的一切，而是你的心；
所以你们要学者面对自己的心。
