Trip to Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve!

Hi!
I'm here to update my blog about the exciting trip to Sungei Buloh this morning with my class.
This is my first time going to Sungei Buloh and I think that it is really fun to explore the place.
Too bad that we were not able to explore the whole place but only a small portion of it.
At first, I thought Sungei Buloh was a island in Singapore, but when I reached there, I realised that it was some where in Woodlands.
Before we were leaving the school, my teacher gave us a worksheet and she lent us her mosquito repellent to spray on our body.
When we were in the bus preparing to go to Sungei Buloh, I felt BORED, BORED and BORED.
There was nothing to do in the bus so some of us just play some finger games but it was still quite boring.
When we reach there, we were split into 3 groups.
All of the 3 groups walked in opposite direction.
When we entered the wetland reserve,we saw a lot of plants and animals.
Some example are Monitor Lizard, mudskipper and others.
There was a guide whom guide us in Sungei Buloh.
He explane a lot of stuff which I need to do the worksheet.
He also allowed us to rest a little after a while.
There was one part where I saw two fish fishing but one of my classmate say that I always think of that kind of thing which is not true.
I do not think about those disgusting thing, I was just curious about what the fish was doing.
After that, we saw a tree and the guide ask my to push the leaf of the tree and taste it.
It was quite salty.
He told us that the leaves prevent the salt from entering the plant and make the leaves salty as the salt does not enter the leaves and stay on them.
There was a chinese school that was making a lot of noise and we keep meeting them so it was quite noisy.
After exploring the place, there was a small party but not sure if I should call it a party or break.
We were able to get some drinks as my teaacher bought some drinks along.
The food was provided by Lim Jeck's mother.
She bake some cookies and some cake.
There was also another team that came after us.
Some of them was in our class.
I still do not know why they took so long to explore the place.
There was also a library near by and a lot of us went in to the library.
They showed a lot of insects in the library.
After that, we also saw some of the 6B student feeding the fish.
They were like enjoying it but I think they were wasting their money.
After that the whole class went back to the school and the journey in the BORING bus began again.
Well, thats all the time I have for today.
Maybe I will ask my parent to bring me to Sungei Buloh when PSLE is over and explore the whole place.
I need to sleep now so Bye-Bye!
