We had a long weekend holiday during our SG50 celebration... Though, there were many places opening for Singaporeans with free entry, but that means, alot of Singaporeans would go due to the free entry!! SO, we were kind of left with just shopping options, as my dear hubby is not a fan of long queues!! Hahaha...
Another sad thing was, it was raining during the long holiday... AND, we had thought to bring the kids to catch the Black Knights performing at the Marina bay area but there were no car park lots and due to the pouring rain, we can't see a thing in the sky... so, we are left with "WHERE TO GO??"...
And since we are very near the CBD area, and WL activated his voice control again... asking me to goggle if the URA is open during this public holiday... And yes, it's open with SOME activities and here we are!!
First visit for all of us... and it's amazing how Singapore had everything planned... and with all the buildings, parks and many tourists attractions lay out all over Singapore, am really impressed!! We were a small fishing village and now with first world airports sea port and many attractions which helped to develop Singapore into a place where tourists will come and spend their money!! Well done Singapore, am so proud to be called a Singaporean!! :)
A map of Singapore.. show casing the different towns and how each race started building their homes and communities from the early days to our NOW...
Photos showing our transformation from 1940s...
And this is one of the activity which allows visitors to build a 3D shophouse... interesting project but very difficult to build it up! :p This is destroyed even before we left this place... hahaha...
Planning of the parks in Singapore...
See... even rubbish also needs planning... hahaha...
Section view of a typical shop house in Singapore.... :)
A interactive game for the kids... just like a BIG ipad!! Hahaha...
Recently, this son of my, always insisted taking selfie with just ME... and he would make a big fuss if me and hubby pose for a selfie... should I rejoice and be mad??... :{
Here's another map of Singapore at Level 1, and this is a much impressive layout... Why? It's really a miniature of the whole island's building!! We can even find our HDB block here!! Hahaha... Good! :)
After exploring the URA site, we were cracking our head on places to go AGAIN!! And guess what? Another surprise from my hubby... ehm... he's fond of surprises for ME?!?! Ya, I though so too... and always places which he wanted me to go, but I had expressively told him I do not like it, he would bring them across as SURPRISE!! :(
Ok, here's how he put this place across... "It's a place our kids will LOVE and it's a place where you can sit and enjoy coffee and RELAX.." Whoa... sounds interesting to you??? SO, RELUCTANTLY, I lifted my foot and move to the car park and he HAPPILY drove US ALL to the location he wanted to go! :p
Here we are... CATS CAFE!!! ARGH....
My baby enjoying his can drink....
Suddenly, a cat DECIDED to sit next to my baby!!!
Yes, my children LOVES this place... as they are really fond of pets... so they DID enjoy themselves... and I DID enjoy hours of fun playing my candy crush and not moving my butt!!! Hahaha...
But, I really thought this place is overcharging the patrons? We are supposed to pay for a entrance fee for every one coming into the cafe... and yes, the entrance fee is inclusive of a drink, and if we want to top up for coffee or tea, fine... and we can stay inside for as long as we like... and they do serve cakes and pasta... at a price which I thought is abit too high too... as the serving was just nice for my kids?... Would I go again??? NO... a DEFINITE NO, thanks! :p Ya... I do not like pets!
