#staycation My berry loft-cation at Studio M Hotel and I want to show you their location which is easily accessible from Alkaff bridge along the Singapore River. There are living things inside the Singapore River and you can use the stairs to go down to the river too. I happened to see one of the restaurant owners throwing many slices of bread into the river. Suddenly, the river came alive and there was much water splashing from the fishes and tortoises living in the river. Very soon, all the bread was gone. You still can see the fishes and tortoises hanging around for more feeding. By the way, it is illegal to feed/fish at the Singapore River, especially releasing wildlife into the river too. So please do not abandon your pets.
