X'mas Vacation @ Singapore Day 2

27-Dec-2008 Saturday - This is the 2nd day of our S'pore trip where we plan to go to Sentosa Island since we need to spend the whole day there.
This is our hotel room, where Vernon is looking at the notepad.
** Pic taken in the hotel room balcony.
We have bought our cable car ticket and is on our walking path to the cable care station.
Yeah! We are riding on the cable car on our way to the sentosa island.
This is the 1st ride we taken upon arrived at the sentosa island.
The tower is going upwards and downwards. The funny thing is Vernon want to wee-wee on the way down and he can't wait till the tower go down. luckily I did bring his wee-wee cup along. and we let him wee-wee in the cup first.
We were in the museum, Vernon was so happy make his call by using the old types telephone.
Then we look around, this is the only thing that Vernon allow to play. and I was not allow, due to there's a rule which prohibit pregnant lady & expecting mom + kids below certain height.
So I only can took photos for them. and James have to bring him to play.
On our way to find restaurant for lunch, Vernon saw a lots of kids playing with the water fountain. So he also want to play. And I have to hold him...........but with very careful.
as I am not suppose to carry him.
Hmmh.....finally we saw a restaurant which serve variety of international food.
see...........the yummy food James ordered. For Vernon, I have to share the S'pore Chicken rice.
he is a bit fussy when we wake him up for lunch. But after a while he is ok since we ordered him a cup of cold drink.
We waited till evening finish the laser light show. when we were there, already have lots of ppl queuing up. It was so warm and humid especially when the place crowded with ppl.

After a tire day at sentosa, we headed back to hotel. Take a hot bath and only go to get our dinner again. We found a place for chicken rice again.............as Vernon keep saying he want to eat rice.
We went for a double Decker bus for a free ride at the orchid road (looking at the X'mas night lights). It was so fascinating......................and can say the whole road was full with colorful lights.
and they have a team every year.

Oh..........................................what a tire day and it's time for us to ride on the MRT back to our hotel.

X'mas Vacation @ Singapore Day 1

26-Dec-2008 Friday - We've 2 weeks long X'mas Holidays, so I & papa decided to bring Vernon to S'pore for vacations. We plan to fly with AirAsia this time as it always having promotion with low fare. We book our AirAsia ticket about a month ahead & never thought that MAS have another promotion where the price was so attractive and if we fly with Mas. We do not need to transit KL which is much more convenient especially travel with small kid.
We have no choice since AirAsia ticket is not cancellable
We woke up very early in the morning waiting for NaiNai to fetch us to Airport in order not to miss the flight.
Vernon very happy upon walking into the departure Gate, he kept asking me & James where is the Aeroplane?
The airport was so crowded with people going for their X'mas holidays.
We have to walk to the airplane unlike the normal MAS/SIN Airline. Therefore, Papa have to go up to the plane with Vernon in order to reserve a better seat for all of us. As a pregnant mommy, i can't walk fast enough and also try to avoid those people whom love to push in order to get a better place.
Once Vernon sat on his seat, the 1st thing is asked me :

Vernon : Mommy help me to buckle, for safety else Vernon will "pon-pon"
Mommy : okay, mommy help you to buckle up the safety belt.

Then Vernon pull the emergency guide from the front seat pocket and kept asking James.
So Papa have to explain every single details to him. He love & very curious for every single things he saw.
The fun moments is Vernon start count down from "10..9..8..7..6..5..4..3..2..1" when we told him the airplane is going to take off.

When we arrived at the S'pore airport is like almost 2pm in the afternoon. We knew the little boy must be very hungry as we only took a light Mc'D breakfast during KL transit.
as it already past about 2 hours from his usual lunch time. He kept asking :
Vernon : I want Rice.....I want Rice...............hungry mommy
mommy : Wait.......mommy knew you are very hungry.

We wait for papa to ask the info center on the LRT & S'pore Map, as he need to familiar how we proceed from airport to our hotel by LRT.
finally we seated in Sakae Sushi restaurant in S'pore Airport terminal 2.
Vernon saw the varieties of sushi running on the conveyor belt next to him. He quickly grab 1 plate of sushi with house shape while waiting for our order to be serve. he enjoyed and finished 2 of them pretty fast and then he ask me to take one of those and leave another 1 for papa.
When we almost finish our lunch, Vernon boy saw the waiter is blowing balloon for decorations.
he then ask the waiter to gave him 1 balloon. then I told him where is your Magic words to koko that who gave you the balloon.
Vernon : Thank You koko.

Let's Learn Together

We bought this sesame street "Let's Learn Together" at Kinokuniya Book store in KL CC during our trip to KL sometime ago.
This book comes with a remote control for kids to play while learning. The key learning things in this book is teaching kids on "colors, Shapes & math". It also comes with some song & video of actual life animals to introduce to the kids. I found it very worth, especially Vernon is the Elmo's fan, furthermore he also interested with the features inside.

Fatty Loh Chicken Rice

It's been some time we never go for fatty loh chicken rice.
The place was changing a lot, now it was facilitate with full air con for people to dine in.
But I still felt the place is too crowded & narrow. As people are keep coming in during lunch time and they force to open & squeeze in more table into the place instead of keep their customer waiting for the rest to finish.
The chicken rice still is the best and the price is reasonable.

On our way to pick up our car, we saw the big chicken outside the shop and we took a photo for Vernon since he is born in year of Rooster.
