Singapore day 2, with the family

Woke up only at 11.45am today.It was such a good sleep I did not even get up to turn the whole night. I was dead tired! not even 2 hours of sleep for the last 24 hours! How would you have felt?

Took my shower, packed up and headed off with the people. Firstly, we went to the General Hospital. The Hospital was an eye opener. Seriously! The first thing you would see are the machines, which controls your entrance and exits. We had to register at the counter with our Identification cards to issue a code on the paper which we had to then scan at the machines to enter! Every patient is limited to only 4 visitors per time. They also had our registries as a record in case there is another case of SARS or any other medical problems in the future. They would then get to track down who was in the building that needed quarantined.

Went up to see Gu Jeong,  which was attacked by brain tumor, and he looked better. He had staples on his head and of course was shaven bald.He had a little problem with speech but it was still alright. Tumor was at his left brain, therefore not much of movement on the right. Beds were all wired and your could just press a button to sit upright.

As we left, only did I realize the self check in kiosk!!! HAHA!! Don't all these just remind you of a hotel?

Went to lunch with Gu mah and her in-laws at a food court in Chinatown. The food was good and cheap! I ordered fish head noodles while the others ordered some fried food. I also had the dessert, Longan with sea coconut.

It rained after we ate. We drove around and had no choice but to go shopping since there is nowhere to sightsee in a weather like this.

We went to the Great Wall Shopping centre and bought some stuff there. Spotted some Carebears clothes and toys and got them for little Sophie. I entered the washroom and guess what I saw? Super nice interior!!!

Then, Sharon let her children play on a machine, which was not what we usually have in Malaysia. It was a roller coaster ride for kids. Watch the video I have posted!!!

Next,We headed for some dessert!! I didn't, but the kids. I was on a tight budget and since it was just the 2nd day our of the whole week, I rather save up and not spend all of it...

Met Jason for dinner at the food court nearby. Certain food was popular in demand and it had a long queue.


Jason came slightly later and told me Kevin Ng was at a cafe 2 doors away. I was hesitant on whether to go and ask for a photo. In the end, I went home without that photo...

Here's the food we had!!!

After our meal, Bruce sent me to Su's home at 10pm and I got to tour around the house. Her maid waited up for me. Her whole place has a view!!! I definitely am staying indoors this year for New Years Eve and it would also be a quiet one. Here's some pictures!!!
