More targets of opportunity for Warmtoast

Somewhat unexpectedly, I'm back in Singapore for a few days and I decided I would like to go sailing. I ended up going for a sail on a ketch, which is moored at the Changi Sailing Club!

Here's a picture of the club as we approached the dock. The original building is on the left and an extension, with pool, to the right:


While we were out sailing in the channel, we saw a fleet of about 50 Optimists racing, with a new generation of young sailors on board. We arrived back, just in front of a blizzard of Optis, since their race had been abandoned in view of the approaching thunderstorm in the background:


Changi village:


A barrack block on Farnborough Road (taken from Loyang Avenue):


Married quarters (?) on the north side of Loyang Avenue:


Building near the main gate to RSAF Changi West (Changi East is to the east of the civil airfield, with its own, new runway):


Then and now

Former Supreme Court Building (L) and former City Hall (R), now both renovated as the National Gallery:



Not the same tree as in Warmtoast's picture.

St Andrew's Cathedral. It is not clear from my picture but the distinctive gate posts are still there:
