I Last Seen Her 13 Years Ago…

Date:  Aug 30, 2011

Almost 20 years ago, I can still remember this relative of "苏记" Chinese Groceries Stores and Restaurant at St. John's Newfoundland.  All of us, the foreigner students in Memorial University of Newfoundland becomes friends.  Lots of outings together.  All those memories.  Nice and fun!  Since we graduate, we only met once or twice which is 13 years ago.  I am glad that she visited Singapore, and our kids have some fun time together.  So after our lunch @ Long Beach East Coast Park, we spent about 2 hours at Polliwogs, a kids playground.  According to Loisa, in Hong Kong, there is not many such "public" playground for kids.  Most of them are clubs.

Introducing Yanni.  Louisa's daughter, who is 4 years old now.

The Balls

I covered my eyes, you cannot see me.

This is a green crystal ball.

I don't like blue balls, let's squash it!

The Guns

Jay and Yanni at a gun station.

And Yanni got the helm of the gun station.

And Jay & Yanni begun to shoot rubber balls.

She seems to have lots of fun handling the machine gun.

She seems to lock on to a target...

Oh... Daddy staring at her.  "Who shoot the rubber balls at me?"

She said "Opps! Sorry Daddy!"

Yanni seems to be very happy playing with the machine gun.

Keep shooting her daddy and me.

And my son is helping her by keep going up and down to pick up the rubber bullets.

The Rope Walk

What?  You want me to show you how to walk the rope walk?

Hi Daddy, I am up here.

So as Yanni.

Yanni is following Jay Jay too.

The Photos

 

We almost forgot to take photos.  Let's the kids take theirs first.

We told Yanni to see who's eyes is bigger.  And she really opens her eyes wide and open.

now take photos with Kay Kay.

两小无猜...

Yanni and Kay.

And this is our lovely group photos.

I am glad that we met today.  Our kids really have good times together.  Come again next time.

 

Polliwogs & Justin's Birthday

Date: June 26, 2011

Jay Jay's friend, Justin has invited Jay Jay to go to his birthday party @ Polliwogs.  This is the second time Jay Jay been there.  And he already keep bugging me to hold his birthday party at Polliwogs.  And I am still thinking about it.. as this is the second birthday party @ Pollowogs for this year.  (Last time, Anerton's birthday party is also held here!)

But you got to admit it, it is a great place to hold party.  You got nice sea views, you got big area, and you got nice slides, not to dangerous, and you have nice food here too.  The New Zealand ice cream is also nice.

I think Kay Kay also loves this place too, given the fact that he has slide down this slide for 10+ time.

What is Jay Jay looking at?  Argh... the balls that float in the air... there is a strong air current blowing at the middle and you can actually place the ball on top of it, and the ball simple hangs and float around there... so, it becomes a perfect target for the air gun to shoot at...

Ah... yes, its Justin's birthday today...

Let's the game begin...

Some kids just love dinosaurs...  Here is Justin's cake...

Ok, we sit down already... where is the food?

Jessica, Clare and Jay Jay... hmm, Jay Jay keeps putting a big smile in his face...

Riandi's sister Gwensays... I want cake...

Oh ya... Gwen is actually Kay Kay's classmate, and her brother, Riandi is Jay Jay's classmate... and guess what, the parents went to the same pre-natal course with us... and both mommy delivers at Mount Elizabeth... Quite a coincident...

That concludes the fun time we had at Justin's Birthday @ Polliwogs.  And I am still thinking whether to grant Jay Jay's request to have his party at Polliwogs... hmmmm... hard decisions to make... let's see how la...
