Hi everyone,

Sorry but some change in plans so I can't go up.

Anyway, I just realised that next week is a full moon! So if you all are going up it'll really be to eat seafood! :)

Next week Full moon?? Tomorrow (7 Sep 2006) is Full moon, not next week.

Have a nice day.

You can take the Causeway Link bus CW3 which picks up passengers from Jurong East MRT station and terminates at Gelang Patah bus terminal. It's a 1 hour trip from end to end, and costs S$3.50 (JE to GP) and RM3.50 (GP to JE).

So hmm... My attendance is not confirmed... :?
Those of you who wish to go by public transport, please "voice" it out here. We could make some arrangements for you to meet up together at Jurong East MRT station.

Hi,

I don't advise taking public transport because there's no way you're going to be able to get back at midnight! :) Pls see if you can get transport with someone.

Anyway, I can't make it up this weekend so pls remove my name from the list.

Astrobabe, are you driving up? How did you know about this place?

Cheers,
Chris

Chris is right. Getting there by public transport is do-able but to return back to Singapore at midnight, one will have to hitch a ride from someone in the group. So it would be optimal to arrange for a return trip with one of the SingAstronomers.
