We made it to the summit of Bukit Timah Hill, woohoo!
This was our first time scaling to the top as we explored the nature reserve over the weekend. I have to say it was really exhausting walking up the long and steep slope, not to mention that we still had a baby, umbrellas and diaper bag to carry, haha.
We had a choice of climbing the stairs or walking along the main road to get to the summit and I was surprised that the kids chose the stairs in unison. All right, let's do it then!
I had to stop a few times to catch my breath because very 喘 but I was glad we didn't give up and managed to perserve till the end. I was hoping to get a good view at the summit but other than this rock and a pavilion to rest, there was really nothing much there.
We couldn't get a good view of the quarry too because it was blocked by the vegetation but at least we saw some monkeys and bugs. The highlight was seeing a giant forest ant and debating about whether a bird we saw high up in the tree was a red crowned barbet or common flameback woodpecker.
It was fun making our way down the hill after and the kids said they wished they could roll down instead because that would be so fun! Hoping to explore more parks soon even though it is the busy exam period for the kids. We all need to take a breather from time to time, this definitely did me a lot of good and made me happy.
