A few months ago, I was walking home from my inlaws place after stopping at the ship playground. I decided to walk a further route to go to the dragon playground. The dragon playground was built in 1979 and is considered a heritage sight in Toa Payoh town. I usually see it when I'm on the bus going to my inlaws place but that time I came from the other side.
几个月前，我是从太太娘家走过船只游乐场后继续走回家。我决定走另一条路线去龙游乐场。龙游乐场建于1979年，被认为是大巴窑镇的传统标志。我搭公去太太娘家时在车上常看到它但看到的是另一面。
🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.
🎶让大家继续读的时候，欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首，名为“春天”。Source | 来源: https://musopen.org/
