We did another of our Satok walks yesterday morning. We haven't done one for a while.

On the way, peaceful burbs, and the first sunrise of winter (the equinox was the previous day):

Then the bridge (still walkable after all these weeks...).

A propos the bridge, it's definitely worth checking out this story by Karen Bong, who offers us a fascinating tour through the history and superstitions attached to the various versions of this structure (not to mention pictures of an adorable "mosquito bus").

Pause for reflections:

Then head for the Teh Tarik Kafeteria for your breakfast roti.

And walk back along Jalan Merdeka and the river:

Back in town, we stopped for second-breakfast sate, and a squizz at the new mural that's going up on Kai Joo Lane:

And this morning, we lingered for a while to watch progress on the new mural off Jalan Padungan:

This is why we never get anything done. There's just too much happening...
