Fort Edmonton Park

Apparently I seem to be giving the impression that I'm on holiday more than I'm working. I bet it is more fun and iinteresting reading about the leisure stuff rather than the work stuff.

Anyways, went out again today. Sun was shining and the weather was perfect for an outdoor walk. Would love to go for a picnic someday. Though I think CY will never be game for it, since it's not a Singaporean thing to do. So we went to Fort Edmonton Pa and had quite some fun looking at historic things ranging from the late 1700s to 1920s. There are buildings built exactly like what they used to be and people dressed up in period costumes performing tasks eg baking, running errands, chatting and reading. It's just bizarre.

Less talk more photos!
