The Riders Lodge


Its the name of our hotel, seriously! They have two little ponies that ride laps around a tree in a pen. Its great, better than their website led us to expect. We have a nice big room with firm beds and plenty of room for the bikes (which we have yet to assemble, that will come tomorrow). We tried our luck with the hotel brekky for the first time this morning and discovered that Finn quite fancies the spicy baked beans.  Bella ate all of the bananas and discovered some interesting fruits hanging from the nearby trees.
Its hot here, but primarily overcast and very humid.  None of us are minding the heat too much especially Bella, who just this morning managed to "accidentally" fall in the fountain at the Botanic Gardens, getting soaked in front of some very amused visitors.
The gardens were very beautiful, particularly the Orchid display (sorry but the phone went flat this morning so no pics).

  4. Oh the bliss of being in the botanic gardens, lucky you. Wanted to go to Bukit Timah and explore the rainforest on our last visit but couldn't work out the buses! Derrr.
