Location: UBIN LODGE

Finally, a break!  

Pulau Ubin - the wild jungle where tigers and elephants swim over from Malaysia... the great granite outcrop colored with exotic (but perilous?!) plant life ...  a haunted island filled with Danger... and Mystery!  (okay... hmm... maybe if it was up to the Singapore Paranormal Investigators...)

Ghosts, tigers, or giardia berries - it's where we're filming Kindred Spirit.  

Despite the treacherous 10-minute bumboat ride across the picturesquely serene Serangoon Bay, this little jewel has (unfortunately?) made the wild accessible for sometimes nature-handicapped Singaporeans. 

Still, it's lovely.  It's quiet.  It's all in one place.  And its not too far away.  (It's also available during December school holidays and Hari Raya).  We here like to think it's a pretty good excuse for a vacation... ahem!  I mean... my Highly Important 2nd Year Production. 



For those of you out there who are still wondering why a 2nd year is shooting at a spot like this... or why a person would go to an island for a week instead of a perfectly normal and safe Sound Stage, Tonight Is Your Answer.
