Hooray, it is the time for holidays again to Genting. This is my 2nd trip to Genting and i love the cool weather and theme parks best. Daddy is driving for this trip and we are all very excited.
Due to the recent jam at the immigration checkpoints because of the new biometric procedures, we decided to set off in the wee hours. I woke up at about 3.45am and we picked up uncle Darren n Nicole yi yi at 4.15am at their house in woodlands. We arranged to meet at the first petrol kiosk in JB with Da Yi Zhang and Uncle Marc. Altogether, 10 adults and 3 kids are travelling in 3 cars. The sky was still dark when we set off but i was all bright and bushy tailed. All ready to start my holidays. We made several stops to take a leak and have a bite during the long journey. It was tiring for daddy as the driver but fun for me as a passenger. Hehe... We reached Genting around 11am and we went to the kopitiam at First World for our lunch. Genting was very crowd as it was the June holidays. There were so many kids. After lunch, we checked into our hotel rooms and took a short nap. After our rest, we shopped a while at the mall and had dinner before heading back to our room to retire for the day.
The next morning was specially planned for the kids. We had breakfast at McDonald's and then it was to the indoor theme park and outdoor theme park. I enjoyed the rides very much and i was grinning from ear to ear. I was just so happy and excited. I had a quick nap during lunch at Old Town Cafe and by the time we reached our room for a short rest, i was awake and couldn't go back to sleep again. After 1-2 hours of rest, we hit the theme park again for our favourite rides.
The next morning, we quickly packed our luggage before heading out to Ah Yat Restaurant for Dim Sum. After our Dim sum lunch, we checked out and got ready to head back home.
It was a fast and short holiday but very fun and enjoyable for me. Check out the pics.

Last Day of School at Kindercom

Times flies and it's been a year since i first started playgroup at Kindercom at 19 months. Now i am 31 months old and i attended my last lesson at Kindercom today. I will be progressing to attend childcare at Metropolitan YMCA at Yishun in June.
No holidays for me in June. Not that i mind, anyway i have more friends to play with at my new childcare centre. I attended an orientation program last monday and i really like my new school.
They have a really cosy place and i enjoy visiting the toilets as the toilet bowl and sink are just the right size and height for me.
Hope i can adapt well to the new environment and make new friends easily.
Shall update on my progress soon again.

Day trip to JB Tesco and KSL

Right after attending Matthias' Birthday party, i was off to Johor Bahru with Da yi's family and my parents. We did some grocery shopping at Tesco before having another round of indoor playground fun at KSL.
I guess i am a bit exhausted by now but nevertheless it's still FUN!
Having Shabu shabu for dinner. Daddy was displeased with me for misbehaving at dinner but clearly i wasn't paying too much attention to him.
And i am still running around the restaurant, taking some pictures.

Weaning off mummy's milk

Immediately after my Taiwan Trip, Mummy and Grandma were determined to wean me of breastfeeding. With Grandma's help, i stayed over at her place for 4 nights straight. She fed me formula milk during the night. I was afraid of ants during this period and mummy tried to scare me off breastfeeding by telling me she got ants on her boobs. It did work somehow and i never ask her to breastfeed me again. Yes i have outgrown mummy's milk!

Taiwan, Taipei 12th-15th Mar 2011

I went to Taipei on 12th of March with daddy and mummy. We left for the airport at 6am as we have to check in at 6.30am for our 8.30am flight. After checking in, we had our breakfast at Kiliney Kopitiam. I was feeling good and happy during my flight. I watched wiggles, snacked on tidbits, have my lunch and napped on the 4+ hours flight.
When we touched down at Taipei, the temperature was 14 degree Celsius. It was so cold but i like it! There wasn't any sun and the sky was cloudy and grey. After checking in at Fortune Hyatt Hotel, i had a quick bath and rest before venturing around the streets nearby. It was so cold and mummy bought me a wool beanie from one of the stalls. It cost NT800, not cheap but what to do. Mummy was afraid that the cold will make me sick so she has to cover and protect my head and ears. We didn't wander off too far as we need to gather in the hotel for the bus to pick us up for dinner at "Hai Ba Wang" restaurant. The dinner portion was so huge but the food didn't appeal to me and i didn't eat much. In fact i was playing happily with other kids in the group (mummy's colleagues' kids). We were running around and going in circles. I was having so much fun that mummy thought i am going bonkers. I laughed loudly and kept dragging the other kids to follow me around the restaurant.
After dinner, we went to Long San Si Temple followed by Huaxi Street Night Market. We tried the local food like Hua Zi Yuan(sotong balls), salted chicken, bubble tea, yam or some kind of flour balls. I was still feeling energetic through out the night and it was almost 11pm when we left the night market. I slept close to 12 midnight on the 1st night.
On the 2nd day, we woke up at 7am. We need to gather at 8am for our day tour. We didn't manage to have our free breakfast as the restaurant was too crowded. So daddy bought us some bread from a nearby convenience store. We went to Zhi You Guang Chang (Zhong Zheng Ji Nian Tang) and did some sightseeing. Then to Yeliu for some photo taking and sightseeing. We proceeded to Jing Shan Old street for shopping and lunch. That place was crazy, it was jam packed with people. There is a famous eatery there when diners will just pick up or i should say snatch the cooked dishes at the kitchen and then deliver their plates of food through the crowd street and to their tables about 50m away. We literally squeezed ourselves through the crowd and to our tables located on the 3rd floor of the restaurant. The food was so so, we can't justify why there are just so many people queuing for the food.
After lunch, we proceeded to the "touristy" places like the Mao's house and Pi Siu shops where they tried to convince us to buy their deer placenta, royal jelly, Lingzhi and the very expensive Pi Siu. As daddy and mummy have been through these and purchased quite a bit the last time they visited taiwan, they are not ready to commit to these purchases again.
By night, we arrived at Shilin night market and had their famous Chicken cutlet but it didn't taste as good as before. We didn't eat much over at the night market as their food don't really appeal to us. Instead i spent most of my time playing on the kiddy ride. scooping fishes, playing street games at Shilin Night Market. It was very enjoyable and i had so much fun.
The next day we went on our own group tour to Yang Ming Shan in the morning. The park was so beautiful with blooming cherry blossoms everywhere. The park was full of other blooms as well and just being there makes us happy. Along the way we dropped by a calla lily farm and a shop full of windmills. We had lunch at Jiu Fen and spent 3 hrs there before proceeding to Wu Fen Pu. There are so shops selling clothes at very reasonable prices. Mummy went to one shop and purchased 7 pieces of clothing. Then we went to another shop selling children clothing and mummy purchased another 10 pieces. It was cheap as 1 piece of top only cost S$4.50. Mummy had wanted to shop more but i was getting cranky and refused to walk or let daddy carry me. I insisted mummy to carry me and she couldn't take it anymore but to rest at a tea joint while waiting for the time to gather. Our last stop was at Si Men Ding, it was a cool night and we merely walked through the streets. there wasn't much stuffs to buy here. However i had the opportunity to see a lot of dogs over here. There were Doggie themed restaurant and big golden retrievers were seen at the restaurant. I went up to the dogs and patted them.
Fast time passes quickly and we checked out of our hotel at 10.30am. There wasn't much time for us to do anything on the last day. We had breakfast at the hotel before heading to the airport to catch our flight home.
