McRitchie Reservoir

Today, I went to McRitchie Reservoir with my parents and baby brother. We rent a car and my father drove us there.

When we arrived, we walked to the café. We were confused and didn't know the way, until we saw a sign that tells us where the reservoir is. We followed the direction that the sign was pointing to and finally, we arrived at the reservoir. There was a bridge that leads us to a small gazebo. Too bad it was closed. It was a very nice gazebo, you know. Anyway, we took some beautiful pictures of the view of the reservoir from the bridge. Subhanallah, it was a glorious view. But, the pictures are on my phone, so I can't upload it here.

There was also a submerged bridge. It's really cool! I took some pictures of the view that I had there ( they're on my phone, unfortunately ). I got my shoes wet, but it was worth it. I got to see some water plants there.

After walking on the submerged bridge and taking pictures of the beautiful view, we stopped for a snack.We sat on the benches and ate some bread that we had brought from home. I felt tired, but I had fun as well.

But wait, the trip didn't end there. After eating, we realized that it was time for Zuhur. We headed to a mosque called
" Masjid Omar Salmah ". I thought it was a normal, ordinary mosque. But I was wrong. The mosque is located on top of a hill. The mosque is also an old-fashioned one, not the modern kind. This reminded me of the mosques that I usually see in my home country, Indonesia. Most of the mosques are like this.

After praying Zuhur at Masjid Omar Salmah, we went to Java Kitchen Restaurant and had lunch. After having lunch and buying some " Es Chendol ",
we finally went home.
