Revision time for mid year exam

First attempt to bake a cake and make cake pops on our own, it was a flop... :( But we had a lot of fun in the process :)

DH celebrated his 5th year old birthday with his class in school. He selected a Lightning McQueen cake for this year, all friends were excited about the cake.

 DH and his K1 classmates!

** Merry Christmas! ** 

Went to a studio photoshoot session in Dec'13. Both were very excited and enthusiastic in the beginning, but after an hour, they kept asking: "Is it gonna end soon?"  

DH enjoys being chauffered in a dustbin car.

Spending the evening at Stulang beach, surprisingly the beach was quite clean and not crowded, though occassionally there were rats running around but far away from us. @_@
We had lots of fun and will come back again!  

The best part of CNY is to have "lou-hei" with the family.

Wishing everyone a Super Horse year in 2014, stay Healthy and a Blessed Year! 

Went to Universal Studio in Singapore today for day trip. For some of the rides, even with the express pass, it took at least 30mins of wait time.

The park was opened till 10pm tonight. We had a quick snack in the park in the evening so that we can continue to the rides because there were less people now! No more wait time even at the regular queues.

DH got a huge Despicable Me cola bottle which can get a $2 refill of soft drinks. All the kids loved it!

Everyone had dessert first, before having proper but late dinner at 9:30pm.

There was a long long queue at the restaurant, while waiting, we took some pictures. Eventually, dinner was done at about 10:30pm and we reached home at 12am after an hour jam at the causeway. Not too bad considering it was a Friday night in the last few days of the year end holidays. 

Its time to open the Christmas presents! In the first point, DH got a spider man toy!

In the next box, what is the surprise? Will DH's dream come true?

Look, it is the ninja turtle truck which he always wanted. Santa has made his dream come true! 

XN got a lego museum set an DH got his truck, everyone was very happy today. 

This is DH's toy from Phuket. The robot monster's name is King Joe from the Ultraman series. Its cool because not many shops sell the bad guys.

On the 2nd day in Phuket, it was still raining non stop! We went to a mall near phuket town. It was a big mall and with lots of shops. DH saw some super hero statues on display and was eager to take pictures with them.

We also had our lunch there. The food was good and the prices are cheaper than the restaurants at Patong!

At night, we went to the weekend market near Phuket town. It was still raining on and off, so it was wet all over the place. It was not the best way to see the market but we managed to walk a few lanes and bought some clothes. Since we had heavy and late lunch, we did not try the street food.

But they sure looked good!

Chocolate banana was one of the deserts that caught DH and XN's eyes. Since they love everything chocolate, it was a must try. 

DH and XN each got one, they enjoyed it very much. The chocolate was not too sweet and the banana was just the right kind for the chocolate. Yummy! 

At the exit, we saw a unique van selling coffee. If you zoom into the the van, you can see the "van keeper" was posing for the picture! 

Back in the hotel, we were packing for tomorrow's home returning trip. We used the hair dryer to blow dry the wet clothes. We were pretty good at it. 

Next morning, time to leave for the airport and it was sun shine! We quickly took the chance to visit the beach after breakfast, we only had 15 minutes! 

The beach was very clean and there are even small clams that we can see trying to dig themselves into the sands after the tides brought them on to shore! DH and XN found this very interesting because they have never thought that clams can move like this. 

One of the trees in the hotel was home to a few birds. We suspected there were eggs in the nest because mama bird had been sitting there since yesterday morning.

Finally, we arrived at the airport. There was a mad crowd rushing to go into the airport check in and immigration counters. Definately something for the airport to improve.

Since the plane was delayed for almost an hour, we had time to wait in the the transit bus before going to the air plane. DH took the chance to do some monkey stunts on the handle. Sine we did not have the chance to go on an elephant walk this trip, we will be back next time!
