今天是新加坡的公共假日─衛塞節(Vesak),難得週一不上班,我們與Cindy一家相約到島嶼南邊,新建完成的山林步道健行。
一早7點鐘,把睡眼惺忪的小魚架上推車,準備迎接一個健康活力的早晨。
連接港口直到西海岸的南部山脊 (Southern Ridges) 共9公里,其中有幾個分段是新建完成的休憩區和步道。從山丘上一面臨港望海,一面是層次錯落的城市樓房,兩旁的樹木稍稍可擋熱情的陽 光,景色雖宜人,但假日人多擁擠,只有走在一小段林間步道時,享有一時的清幽寧靜。
我們一路上上下下扶小攜幼,不一會兒也都汗流浹背,尤 其兩位當爸爸的最辛苦,遇到上下階梯便要扛起嬰兒推車,可真是體力的大考驗,還有人親切的問林爸爸需不需要幫忙;而自稱是Spiderman的騏騏會幫忙 照顧兩個小妹妹,特別是跟小魚一路上童言童語增添不少熱鬧,原來孩子也是很需要玩伴呢!
10層樓高的「波浪橋」(Henderson Waves)是其中一處特別的景觀,橋面以木棧鋪道,加上以黃色鋼板做成有如波浪上下翻動的橋身,建於高立的水泥柱上,遠觀十分有型,近看也很有巧思,可斜躺在橋上小憩,或遊走欣賞高高在上的風光,是此行必遊景點!
路程走了近2小時卻只走了全長的1/3,眼看已近中午時分,火熱的太陽都快把我們曬乾了,一有了吃午飯的好藉口,又累又餓的我們一致決定〝儘速〞前往「文東記」吃雞飯。
而未完的旅程?下次再續囉!
