WOODLANDS WATERFRONT

After shifting to my new place in Woodlands, i now had to scour for new haunts for the children to hang out and play. They rarely have time to do so these days for homework is a killer in their new school, so as usual, lucky for us we have gramps (grandpa) who brought us to our new hangout here in Woodlands. Huge place and not just for the children but for all ages as well. Share with you guys about the place below! Here are the parking charges there.. car park not very spacious and unless if you're one of the early birds, you may need to park at nearby HDB parking spaces and just walk / jog your way there. After we parked the car, here's what greeted us further down from the first point of entry. Yeah.. what i thought too.. Huge! It was a wee bit dark that morning as it looked like it was going to rain and we were kinda early as well... came before 8:00am for a morning jog & cycle with gramps. Gramps brought his roller blades and the children had a while of a time chasing him around the park! Here's another one on a clearer morning. If the climbing frame is too much for the little ones joining the fun, then this would be a good alternative. A smaller and safer looking playground for the little tots.. There are a few exercise stations you can work out with after your run or jog round the huge park... I have always loved swings as a child. I have fond memories of playing with swings in the kampong and also later on at playgrounds. I also have memories and some hidden scars from the falling off from swings too. Swings are fab playthings.. great for happy breezy days and also soothing for those not so good days where all you want and need is some quiet time to calm those thoughts.. No need to fight! Hehee.. there are 4 swings here. From my testing, it can take the weight of children and ahem.. me.. so it's a go for adults too! Here are some pictures of the running or jogging tracks away from the smokey fumes of traffic but instead with the serenity of the park, scent of greenery all around, under the fresh morning sun... accompanied by the cool morning dew dropsy air and with a view of our neighbour just across the jetty. Walkway leading to the jetty.. Coastal view.. Some come here to fish too.. not that there are that many fish to begin with but i suppose just leisure fishing bah.. better than the iPhone fishing game right? At least here can really fish. While waiting FOR the real fish can still do virtual fishing on that iPhone lar. There are also some pavillions/huts if you feel like having a picnic. On lovely days, we have briskwalking groups from other parts of Singapore coming here for their events or group trips. After coming here a couple of times, by far this place is the biggest and also the cleanest (because it's still new bah.. ) within Woodlands area for our kiddies and ourselves too! The plus is that it is a great place to chill for the young and old. In your free evenings, you can come here with your spouse star-gazing in the cool breeze too. So, if you're in the area, drop by and check this place out. Till i find another cool haunt, Woodlands Waterfront will be our place to go for our leisure jogs and play during our weekends. Note : The only thing to watch out for here is : millipedes... and yes... inexperienced fisher-people... so watch out for that hook!
