detour to Fort Canning Park

Happy Place, Happy Space

Some days I want the comfort of familiar routes. On others, a little detour is most welcome. Instead of following the Singapore River as I often do, I veered left up towards Fort Canning Park on this cool-ish morning. Previous visits have been in the dusky evenings, so it was a pleasant change to explore much earlier in the day.
