trip reflection

On 10 of May, Monday, we had a field trip to Pulau Ubin. This is my second time to go to this island. Last time we went there for OBS, while this time we went there for the geography project of sustainable development. First we went to Changi Point Ferry Terminal to take a boat, where is located behind Changi airport. It is far away from the centre of Singapore. It took around 10 minutes from ferry terminal to get at Pulau Ubin.
As we know, Pulau Ubin is a fantastic place for hikers to explore its primordial beauty. We rent a bicycle after we landed the island. I have not ridden bicycle for a long time. It was quite pleased to ride bicycle on a luxuriant land. There are various trees around the beach. We had a comfortable break at there. Then we rode the bicycle following the main road into the hinterland of Pulau Ubin. The main road in Pulau Ubin is made of blacktop, but it does not mean Pulau Ubin has been urbanised. There are always various trees around the road. The trip with bicycle was quite relaxing and interesting. You would not hear bell ring from the car. You would not see any HDB. Our destination should be Chek Jawa. Chek Jawa is a unique natural area where six major habitats meet and mix. It is located at intertidal area of eastern Pulau Ubin. However, we did not sure whether the route is correct or not, finally we did not get there. However, we still enjoyed the fantastic class outing in Pulau Ubin. We took the boat from Jetty back to Singapore city as the end of the field trip. Zhang Ruizhi(25)
