Day of Free Rides
Dearest Skyler,
You tried to wake us up this morning but Papa refused to so you went back to sleep. :p
After we did finally get up, we went to the Point for a dim sum lunch. We had our usual items and you ate most of it. But they'd run out of egg tarts so we had to go to the bakery to get it. Good thing they don't insist on our not eating food bought elsewhere on their premises.
While we were walking around, you got onto one of the kiddie rides. A nice Aunty gave you a kiddie ride with her one year old son. It was quite tragic/funny as you'd actually been afraid of the boy initially. His Mama had put him onto the seat next to you and you scrambled to get out. But you agreed to share the seat with him when Papa asked you to. The Aunty was all ready to not let her boy disturb you but when she knew that you were okay, she put him back in with you. And before we knew it, the Aunty had dropped a coin in and the ride started up. You looked nervous throughout the ride but you were okay with sharing the ride. :D You got a free ride! Turned out to the first for the day.
We then walked around the furniture store where you wanted to sleep! You were actually still quite sleepy. Poor Baby Girl!
After that we walked around the book store and bought some acrylic paint for you so that you could do some painting. We got a few tubes comprising the primary colours so that you could mix and match them.
As we were all sleepy by then, we came home for a nap. However, you refused to nap. Papa had to spend a bit of time with you after you persistently tried to get him up. But Papa still caught a few winks.
Later in the evening, we drove to IMM for dinner. We were looking for a ceiling fan for your room.
We had some yummy fish that we like before we walked around. Along the way, we spotted the animal rides that you like - the ones where you could sit astride it and 'drive' it around. You asked to sit on it after we'd completed our circuit of the shops. Thus, we brought you back there for a ride.
To our surprise, Papa's former student was running it. You ended up with a free ride as she refused to accept money from Papa. Mama sat on the ride with you as it was too big for you still. You insisted on the Panda so we waited for it to be available. After the ride ended, you wanted to ride another one but it was time to do other things so we thanked the nice che-che and headed off.
We got to the ground floor and Mama did some shopping. While she was in the stores, you insisted on visiting the giant bug display that they had. It was not open yet but they had a giant Rhinoceros beetle and ants. You kept on wanting to look at them. Everytime you saw that Mama had not gotten what she wanted, you would insist on going back out to look at them. This happened several times! You only stopped when Mama had chosen something and we could go.
We went into the Giant department store and bought longans as you liked them the last time. We were a bit disgusted with a few men who were standing around eating the lychees and leaving the shells lying around. There were signs there that stated that eating the goods was not allowed but they paid it no attention. It wouldn't have been as bad if they'd thrown away the shells properly but they just chucked them back - including the seeds they'd spit out! Yuck!
By the time we got home we could only get to bed past midnight.
Papa and Mama love you!
