In Memories of….

My Sister had her Solemnization at Flutes at the Fort earlier this month, a colonial-style house converted restaurant/wine bar. Situated beside the Central Fire Station, it used to be old fire chief’s home so that they can be operationally ready at all times.

It was a simple ceremony with about 30 invitees made up of our relatives and the couples’ close friends. Cosy ambience with finger food (heavy snacks or rather), both of them took their marriage vows in Chinese (for the sake of the English illiterate parents) with us as their witnesses.

Off to Kittylab Singapore Tour we go!!!

The exhibition is from 14 Nov 2009 to 29 Nov 2009. I understand that during the 1st week of the exhibition, photography and videography were prohibited. However, we were allowed to take pictures this week!!! No flashes were allowed though.

This huge kitty can be seen at the main entrance of Expo Hall 1 just before we walked into the main exhibition hall.

There are a few stations for us to play and in each station we are supposed to play some games to gain Kitty’s accessories like shoes, clothes, hairpin etc. If you win the game, you get to choose what you want; but if you lose, the computer will decide what accessory you get.

Completing the stations within 35 mins will win you a “citizen badge”.

Forest Adventure is an aerial course built through the trees comprising ladders, bridges, swings, nets, trapezes and giant zip lines.

10 of us, Guowei and girlfriend, Dawn, Guorong, Vernon, Nancy, Karen, Ethan, Jackie and I gathered at Bedok Reservoir Park at 10am to start our forest adventure activity.

We had instructors to demonstrate and brief us on the safety rules before we start on our course.

Zipping across the reservoir was so exciting!

When we reached a free-fall point where we had to do a “Tarzen Swing” to get to a net on the other side, Vernon who was afraid of  heights hesitated for a whole 3 minutes before he dared to jump.

The whole course took us about 2 hours and we were very dehydrated by the time we completed the course. Luckily for us, the weather was quite cloudy and the sun wasn’t very strong.  A prefect weather for such an outdoor activity.
