So Biaogu managed to get cheaper tickets for us to attend the Garden Festival. It was our first time going for the festival.
There were interesting exhibits.
The kids learnt that caterpillars are fussy eaters and will only eat leaves from certain plants that they like. They even got cute free craft made from pandan leaves!
It was quite scorching outside.
They were relieved to enter the gigantic cool tent which housed enormous exhibits created by garden enthusiasts and sculptors from all over the world.
Always smitten with the breathtaking scenery
We rented a pram for Jun as he was asleep when we arrived at the place. Good thing that it only cost $2! Jun was lounging and relaxing in it for the entire trip.
More displays.
There was even one that had a raining structure and lighting flashes so it felt like we were caught in a thunderstorm.
Indoor greenery. Wow, I wished we had green fingers, but even a cactus died on us. so...eh...no...
I was quite fascinated by the exhibits but the kids were not exactly enthralled.
Went into the Flower Dome. Peranakan themed displays.
Loved the quaint shophouse facades.
Ha, fluffy clouds with orchids suspended in the air
Oooo the intricately handcrafted beaded shoes.
Little teapots!
Oh Xiaoyi had finally graduated from university! We bought a lovely bouquet of blooms for her. ah...the little boy looked so charming with the flowers.
Aunt Melody and her boyfried bought this in Japan and gave it to papa as it bore his name, Wan Yuan. Ha. I gobbled up the cuttlefish.
At church.
At soccer.
Ah, on the way to Jie's school
Mummy at her D&D. The theme was "Around the world" so my table dressed up in various countries' jerseys and one colleague painted on our faces. Cool eh?
Papa could handle the three kids on his own now. So while mama was enjoying herself with adult company at the D&D, the kids and Papa were playing PS4 games at home! Well, Jun started missing mama as he was getting sleepy. So papa carried him to wait for me at the train station. ha.
We went to the zoo with papa. The boys went to check out the reptile enclosure and jie went to this new climbing activity.
This intrepid adventurer!
As I was blogging, I was printing Tong's story so that I could mail a copy to Aunt A and let her edit it. Yay, in the final stages of editing and we could send it for printing! Hurray!
