Heres my take on the camp that took place from 13th to 15th June. It was the first time after so many years that we decided to take the entire unit out to Pulau Ubin for the Annual Camp. Fun as it might have been for some of us, it is indeed a very expensive camp to run.
And then it was a lot of preparation before the camp started, and all the officers and CIs had to go Ubin to recce before we could confirmed the planned out route as well as marking the checkpoints.
Guess the real action started during land expedition whereby i was not part of. Had to bring a few PRC teachers to go sight seeing as they wanted to tag along, and so hence we went, tagged along by a few of the sec4s too. It was a good time to go sightseeing and do get to know the other parts of P. Ubin; we went to the spice gardens whereby cucumbers, lady fingers, lemon grass and many other fruits and vegetables were grown.
Some of them actually crowded round a well and peered into the place at the same time under the cover of the plants that crept along the entire frame of the well. It was quite a funny picture i had taken and well, i guess i will post that up for all to see as soon as i can. Then some of them went on to say that they have had experiences whereby they had to take baths drawing water from the well... and with fishes inside! Haha it was really quite funny but i used to bathe from a well with many big fishes when i was little and regularly went visits to my granduncle in the kampong last time.
Then i would peer over the icy well water and see if the fishes were doing anything funny... and i remembered also that i asked my mother if the fishes really eat mosquitoes that would otherwise be breeding if there were not put into the pond? Such memories... though now when look into the well during the camp, the feelings were utterly changed ... ...
