National Day!



Went to the Botanic Gardens with our church friends this morning. The ladies in church catered a sumptuous breakfast of nasi lemak from Adam Road Hawker Centre... it was indeed yumelicious!!

Thereafter, we had a good time of fun and games, and we also took some time to enjoy the flora and fauna in the gardens....

As u can see, we turned up in the national day reds...beeming with patriotism at the birthday of our nation! Isaac didn't have a suitable red shirt (the only red shirt that was in his wardrobe at home was one that had the word 'Japan' in chinese imprinted on it....obviously, that is a 'no no' shirt on national day, given the past history Singapore had with Japan!!). As such, we had given him a sticker tatoo of the Singapore flag on his left cheek... : )

That evening, we 'ta bao' the famous Upper Boon Keng Road Kambing (malay word for 'mutton') Soup home for dinner so that we can watch the National Day parade on tv.. We slurpped the soup and wiped it all out with lovely white bread...another yum!!

The parade was nice. The Apaches and Chinook (army helicopter) flew past our flat to and fro to Marina for their performance....! We made Isaac stand up during the national anthem....must teach him to be patriotic from young mah!! : )
