1st Day - 23 Jan 2012

23 Jan 2012 (Mon):

"....Zzzzzzzz.... " i'm wide awake... what's that sound? ... sleepy head here trying to make out the sound that woke me up... oh.. silly me, its the gongs & bangs of the lion dance troupe passing by in their vehicle...

And... yes, its the 1st day of Chinese New Year...

GONG XI FA CAI, XIN NIAN KUAI LE

OMG!!! Look at the clock...its 9am. We've got a busy day ahead of us... off to the bathroom for a quick refreshing shower, breakfast, get changed... wait... what's the rush here since everyone had already left for the temple without us...

The 1st thing we did, oh well, was to get our car "showered".. $6 for a wash... i was on the phone, checking to see where was everyone but no one answered. .... Daddy suggested making a trip down but we did not find traces of our family member there.

So we proceeded to Haw Par Villa on our own first, thereafter to my grannys' for lunch & my mum's place for dinner.

Welcome to Haw Par Villa. I think the last time i was here was during my school days. Now that the Circle Line is built directly outside the park, it makes coming to Haw Par Villa a breeze.







Yes, one of the must visit inside Haw Par Villa is the Ten Courts of Hell, with gruesome depiction of hell in Chinese Mythology.







We took a slow stroll, stopping for photos here & there with my little princess model. The little prince was more interested in asking questions & getting answers from his dad on the statues & stories behind them.

With our tummy hunger for food, we were off to my grannys' place for lunch & thereafter for dinner at my mums' place but sorry, i do not have any photos to share... :P

Tomorrow, 24 Jan 2012 (Tues), we're off to Melaka, Malaysia, agAIN!!!
