12 July 2015 (Sunday) - Kukup, Johor. Headed to Kukup along with the family, my neighbourhood and our MP (Minister of Parliament) Mr Baey Yam Keng! The relaxing trip included a sumptuous spread of seafood for lunch and an excellent Chinese dinner! More importantly, it was time for family and meeting new friends!

Leaving for home at dusk
In order to beat the traffic jam on the causeway, we ended early and started our journey back to Singapore at 8pm. The ride was pretty smooth, albeit some tiny lineups at the Johor and Singapore immigration offices. Overall, it was a very enjoyable trip and I look forward to the upcoming trip in December!
