1 night in MBS

We have booked a hotel room at MBS over the weekend to celebrate our birthdays! The room was huge, clean and cosy. I was jumping with delight the minute we entered into the room as the full length window enable us to have a nice view of SG. The weather wasn't bright and sunny but nevertheless I love running around in the room and having the fresh fruits that were available.





We spent the day taking a walk at the MBS shopping malls. It was huge and I get to see many gor gors and jie jies learning ice-skating at the mall too. After the walk, we went back to our room for our mini celebration. And here are our cakes of the day from Sweet Spot! It's nice but it's too rich and just like it's name, SWEEEEEEETTTT!! Mummy had toothache after having the cakes :P



Next day, we were preparing for a swim at the famous infinity swimming pool. But it rained non-stop that day so we have to call off the event :(



Overall the stay was good! Daddy, mummy, can we come back again??

A walk in the nature

It's weekend! Today's activity is to bring me to a nature park so that I can explore and experience the feeling of nature. Guess where we went? That's Bukit Timah Hill!

By the time we reached, the carpark was already full and there was a long queue of cars waiting for parking lot. In the end, we parked at the roadside just like everyone else who wants to go for a walk but can't find a decent parking lot in the carpark.

It was a short hike for daddy and mummy but a long one for me as this is my very first time here. Initially I wasn't dare to get down to walk and insisted on mummy to carry me. Finally they manage to distract me with a long tree branch that I can use to walk and play with it.



We reached the submit and I had my good time there observing what other kids and adults are doing on the top of the hill. It was a cool and breezy morning. We had our little snack time there too! We rested for a short while and we started walking down the hill as daddy and mummy are hungry!





Next stop was Old Town at Bukit Timah. The overall food and service were quite bad. Especially mummy was way too disappointed with it. No more next time at Old Town Bukit Timah.

Happy New Year!! It's 2011!!

Hey everybody, Happy New Year!! To celebrate this occasion, we took a short trip to Vietnam - Ho Chi Minh. It was a short but fun trip. I had a great time exploring around the places and tasting their local food. Yummy...

The first day we arrived, the place was full christmas decorations. We noticed there were many people queuing, even on the streets, to take pics of the x'mas decorations. We didn't join the queue but we took some pics at the hotel lobby.



Next, we proceed on to have lunch at the famous restaurant. It serves nice authentic Vietnamese food and they have open concept kitchen which is quite interesting. Everyone of us walked around the area and explore the food that they sell/serve. Finally food came and everyone starts tucking away. :)



After lunch, with the heavy tummy, we took a walk around the area till the next meal time. Dinner time was more of a western food. As usual, a nice and relaxing walk after the sumptuous dinner. The place was not as hot and humid as Singapore because I do not perspire like tap water as usual ;P



The next day, we went out shopping. Daddy, mummy and friends bought a lot of food/snacks to bring back home. It was heavy! When we were back in hotel, Sotong yiyi starts busying with the cost calculation and collecting $$ from everyone. I had my fun in yiyi's room while she's sweating out. hehehe....



In the evening, we attended a wedding banquet. This is the main purpose of the trip ;) We went out for a walk after the dinner, ended up at a dessert cafe and finally back to hotel for our "sweet" dreams.



On our last day of our holiday, we went out in search for local food, spend all the money with our last minute shopping and finally to the airport awaiting our flight back to SG. That's my short and sweet description of my Vietname trip. Hope you guys didn't fall asleep ;P

*Home sweet home*
