I took a leaf home on the SMRT, a large one that lay darkly on the main path home through the botanical gardens. Clearly the authorities mean you to use the main paths at night - they were also the most frequented in the day, by people with strollers and families. The small and side paths were followed by ones and threes, while the twos cuddled at ( Read more... )
