Hi Imm!

The next day, we met up with Aunt Dap, Aiden and Nicole. We had lunch near Greenpoint. Daddy bought a new transformers for you and you were just playing with it throughout lunch... hmmm... well this is you, always sooooo in love with transformers and all sorts of objects which can twist and turn...

Aiden is so interested in watching you too! He is really in love with cars and other vehicles. Remembered both of you fighting over them when we stayed together.. hehe..

We went to Blue Train Park where there was a HUGE playground! There was also a train ride before that.. everything is sooo cheap.. R20 which was $2 for the ride and entrance to the playground.... in Singapore it is $6 for a mini train ride around the shopping mall.. so we really enjoyed ourselves thoroughly with the weather and big wide open spaces...

You and Ko enjoying on the see saw...

You also wrote this around the playground.

Playing with Aunt Dap...

You can do it! Mummy is once again reminded of how fast you have grown and how many things you can do now. :) Still whiny but overall a good boy who is active..

We then went to check into our next place at Camps Bay...

So nice right? But it was just a little too cold then to sit at the outside. But the view is simply amazing! Daddy got this place so we could watch the sunset but we didn't get to see it. Still we really enjoyed the house. :)

The big island table that Mummy craved for...

Aunt Dap came with us to visit...

Mummy simply love the amt of space and what I could do with the space... hehe

With you good friend Aiden. :) Aunt Dap commented that if Aiden spent a longer time with us, he would be able to talk much faster...

Your favourite! Long glorious baths.. and somehow the background made it seemed like it is for royalty.. like a golden light... hehe

Enjoying our meal at home.. we jus bought some stuff back to bake.. simple dinner...

Mornings are also very lazy!

We went to church of Sacred Heart... the place we went to weekly when we were staying in Cape Town...

After that we went to Cafe Paradiso.... where we had a baking session and met our Singaporean friends...

With ourr favourite ppl from Singapore... Tracy and her husband Neil..

Hm what you enjoyed most during lunch was the marshmallow right? :P

The next day, we went for an early morning walk at Kirstenbosch..

Some dinosaur sculptures...

Thank God for the breathtaking landscapes..

We met up with Daddy's ex colleagues for lunch that day. It was so nice that they bought lunch for us and we had a nice gathering session. :)

And after that, we visited our penguin friends..

The next day, we had to say bye to our Camps Bay home... we finally went to sit outside at the patio to enjoy it for one last time..

Daddy had to sit in this so he could make this stay worthwhile. :P

Oh yes! Mummy included this pic here because I forgot to add that we went to your old school while staying in Century City the first day...

Here we have come to the end of Part 2!

Letter to Reiko #130 Continuing Our Journey In Cape Town

Hi Ko!

It is your actual birthday and we spent it at Cape Town! Daddy drove to Charlie's Bakery, which was a very popular bakery.. but we haven't actually went there before.... cos usually Daddy has to work on weekdays.. anyway Mummy got something small for you from there... a Minion cookie. :) This will be a post full of photos as Mummy seeks to update our 2nd to 4th day at Cape Town...

This was the Bakery we went to as Daddy drove around the 2nd day...

Here is the address if you want to go back there the next time. :)

And.... we met up with Auntie Daphney!!! You were so quiet at first as you were shy but warmed up halfway through lunch. We went to Blue Train Park where there was a big playground. Before playing at the playground, we had a train ride around the place.. it was so awesome!

The bouncing castle!

I love the see saws there.... so natural!

Oh yes and you fell in love with the flying fox.. luckily Auntie Dap is strong enough to run with you... I was a little scared cos I was thinking if you would let go suddenly.. ouch!

Aiden looks sooo happy! :)

Ok Mummy just can't do balancing on these... as daddy can affirm to that...

Your favourite swing and this time there was Nicole to push you...

Aunt Dap came with us to see our first B&B at Camps Bay.. we all were super thrilled at the place!

Look at the amount of space! Definitely good for hide and seek...

Look at the huge bath tub! I think one of the happiest things abt going overseas was that you and Kor can enjoy long bubble baths together!!

Mummy loves this clean fireplace... hehe... looks soooo neat!

An island kitchen table which Mummy feels that one can bake bread all day long on it.... the hostess actually baked a loaf of bread for us the day we were here... so nice right!

Mummy loves the bottles which has cereal, sugar, salt, coffee... hehehe..

The next day, we went to visit the Church of Sacred Heart, where we used to go for mass every Sunday there... the priest was still the same. It was a nice homely feeling...

Next, we went to Cafe Paradise where we met our Singaporean friends Tracy and her husband.. They are all super nice and Mummy felt more at ease when we were there as there would be help if we need it...

And also had a baking session while we waited for the food!

Happy with the marshmellow the most I guess, instead of lunch itself.. :)

We went over to Auntie Woon Peng's house... we forgot to take a picture with her! gee.. anyway we had a tour at her new place and I simply love her ideas of a lighthouse in the bedroom.. I wish I can also have something like that for you adn Ko. :)
