The walking kakis comprising Betty, Glow, Linda, Mok Wah, Polly, Edward, Jimmy, Lawrence, Lionel & Tommy decided to have the walk at the Botanical Garden this wednesday followed by a vegetarian lunch at Loving Heart, Parklane Shopping Centre, Selegie Road as recommended by Glow. We enjoyed the food very much especially the 'bak chor' mee & the mee siam & also not forgetting the great coffee like Rose Cappuccino, French Vanilla Coffee & Loving Heart Coffee with soya milk. Thanks to Glow for her recommendation!
We commenced our walk around 9.00am with a break at the Halia Outlet for some light breakfast for some of the kakis - toast, croissants, muffin, apple loaf with jam & butter and coffee. It was quite a cool walk, shaded by all the tall trees & also the air was rather refreshing with thick vegetation especially the rain forest.
We encountered trees with big buttress roots, various types of plants, shrubs & vines along our walk. We also came across many people with their pets and groups of 'tai chi' enthusiasts doing their practices. There was much human traffic.
The orchid garden was great, there were so much varieties and the orchids were so beautiful & colourful. It was quite a pleasant walk & we adjourned for lunch around 11.45 pm.
