Clarke Quay



This was what one can call a case of serendipity. My visit at the Birdpark ended with rain. Since the home bound MRT was going to stop at Clarke Quay, I thought I give that place a try. Lots of restaurants there. I figured I could brave the rain and go for a place to eat.
When I exited the station it was still raining and my first view of the Quay looked like this:

A little hazy , maybe. Definitely not the way it looked on the pictures in the Travel Guide.
Then I tried to zoom in, which resulted in a little better looking picture.


The rain stopped, the sky cleared and the evening became nicely cool and balmy. What a difference from the daily heat! I crossed the bridge and on the other bank I took those two pictures:





Hard to believe that just a short while ago it was pouring rain!
But the real treat was the restaurant.
