Tuesday, our penultimate day and it feels a little sad. We are not facing up to our departure with any great bravery, there is something about travelling which we really enjoy, and once you are on the road, you really want to stay on it.
One of things we had wanted to do was to visit Coney Island , a small islet on the river facing Malysia. We had read an article about it and it sounded like a pleasant day out. So back on the tube we made one of our longest  journeys to the end of the Northern line.
Having alighted we then had to find a bus which we managed with the minimum of fuss. The bus took us to the end of its run and there were deposited in a car park overlooking a major river.
We had to ask two women on bikes for directions and they helpfully pointed us in the right direction. Twenty minutes later we reached our destination and set off to walk around it. The beaches were wonderfully sandy but spoilt by a collection of rubbish floating on the beach and floating on the edge of the water.
We walked for about two hours and enjoyed the experience.the government has let the island revert to its natural state so it really is like Singapore was in the beginning. So our walk was basically through wooded jungle, however all the tracks were clear,ly marked and we walked about eight kilometres in total.
As we returned to the bus stop the heavens opened and luckily for us the bus arrived within two minutes. It returned uS to the bus station and we decided to have lunch in the shopping mall Waterpoint, which had only just opened. The food court was mainly Japanese and we had Ramen, a soup with slices of pork, noodles and bean sprouts in it. We thought it was delicious.
we returned to the flat and Rosemarie went to the pool for a swim.
As it as David's birthday we went to a Thai restaurant beside the river and enjoyed a meal there.
A great last day with a variety of activity.
