Sunday, March 12, 2017 0 Comments A+ a-

Hi Ko!!

Over the weekend, we went to Haw Par Villa. Mummy thought of going there so we can learn about Chinese mythology and folklore. Furthermore, it was also free! :) But you were pretty scared when we entered the different levels of hell...


Mummy liked the fact that it was so deep in culture and I hope to immerse both of you in cultural knowledge, hm just to have the basic knowledge! :)


We went together with Auntie Yantin and Popo!!


We went to the different levels of hell... you kept saying you were very scared... oh dear.. hee


Mummy was explaining what was done at the different levels of hell.. maybe to inculcate the importance of values like filial piety and honesty? ;)




Finally out of hell to breathe some fresh air....


Mummy was so happy that Ju Shin Jung was just opposite! Mummy had eaten it earlier in the week actually and Auntie Kangmin had said the Haw Par Villa outlet was nicer. So, just nice for a family outing!!! :) You liked the soup and vegetables but not the small side dishes. Guess you are always eating food that you are used to.. still, it is a wonderful experience to have everyone eating together. Mummy always enjoy times like these...


As we were there earlier, we went to the super mini playground to play first. It was so basic but you and Kor still had lots of fun pretending to talk in Japanese and playing around. Yes, after our trip to Japan, both of you seemed to develop and interest in Japanese. Actually, Mummy was interested too and was keen to pick it up again. I went for the review session but felt that I was unable to catch up, due to time constraints too so maybe will consider letting both of you learn. Languages are always gd, in my opinion. To Mummy, it is always abt the journey and not whether you can be an expert in it.


A happy pic of you!!
