She is Lucy.  And she will be the only kid in this expedition.  

I think her dad “brain wash” her that she must keep the traditions on, and do the SG100 drive.  Then, she will be the only human being on Singapore soil that does the long expedition in both the Jubilee and double Jubilee (SG100).  

She is trained since young.  :)

50+ cars have come to see the Leong family off here.  These Land Rovers will form a convoy and escort the expedition car to Tuas.

This car I believe is quite old.  When I know Larry, he owns a couple of Land Rovers.  And at that time, may be 15 years ago, he already has this car.

Jay is trying to figure out the route.

And the lazy driver is in the driving seat.

More Land Rovers.

Here is the we-fie.  It is amazing, that you can climb up and sit on the car roof just like that.  I think all the people who drive Land Rover like this.

Kay Kay gave one of the flag to uncle Larry.  And place the flag on his radio antenna.

Bye bye Lucy.  See you in 3 months time.

And, here come the convoy.  I happened to be there by accident, and I shot the whole convoy.  This is 52 Land Rovers seeing Larry off towards the Tuas checkpoint.

Only Larry’s Land Rover to join other Malaysians in this 64 days expeditions.  Good luck in everything, and have fun!  See you in 3 months time.  (They are going to have a vacation in London too).
