Still don't have enough rest...
Starting from 3rd day of CNY.. My cousin and his wife came to Singapore for a honeymoon. I accompanied them to go to lots of places only at the first day. Started w/ finding the tour to Bangkok and Pattaya, then we had dim sum for late lunch. Continued w/ visiting Buddha Tooth Relic Temple. They were quite impressed w/ the building. Went along the Chinatown, we stopped by at Clarke Quay for a while, then walked all the way to Boat Quay, One Fullerton, to see the Merlion, and took a look at River Hong Bao. After that we went to Newton food centre to have our dinner there, together w/ my eldest sis and her hubby who just came at that nite, and of course my hubby and son. Wah... I was very tired la only at the first day.

Second day, in the morning, we met at City Hall MRT and headed together to Jurong Bird Park. It's been such a long time I didn't go there. We went in looking at many different birds, attended few shows, and had our lunch at Bongo Burgers, the only place for us to eat. *See 2R below...
We were there until about 3pm. Then we headed to Bugis, brought them around the Bugis Junction, Bugis market, and OG. At first we would like to have bakuteh for our dinner.. Unfortunately, the shop was closed due to the CNY holiday. We ended up having steamboat at Beach Road. When we were queuing, the boss asked us if we wanted to have our dinner at their new branch in Joo Chiat, while they would provide transport - van - for us. They would send us back to Bugis too. And to attract us to the new place, they even offered us a lower price. Usually, their charge for an adult is $18, but due to the CNY, they increased the price to $20. And if we went to Joo Chiat, we'd only need to pay $15 per person. What a great deal! So we went to Joo Chiat lor.. The place was quite new. The food is the same with what they offered in Bugis. Less people though, perhaps because it's new and not many people know about it yet..
We ate 'til we drop.. hehehe.. then the driver sent us back to Bugis. I went back home after that.. Wahh.. very tired boooo....
On Monday, my sis went for a check up at SGH. My cousin went to Chinatown to collect their ticket and itinerary, and at the same time, they bought the ticket back to Jakarta - from Singapore. My sis brought them to Vivo City and Sentosa Island. We met up at Orchard Hotel, after finished working, and we had our dinner at Food Republic in Wisma Atria. Then we walked a while at Takashimaya. At 10pm, we went to Swensen's, just beside the Paragon, and had our ice cream there, together w/ my sis's boss who was coming at that day and stayed just beside the Swensen's. We talked until 11.30pm and we went back home.. Very tireddddd!!!!
On Tuesday, my sis just went to her hubby's aunt's house in the afternoon. While after finished working, I went to their room, together w/ 2R, then we had our dinner @Black Angus, below the Orchard Parade Hotel. I ordered top sirloin steak combo w/ salmon grilled. My sis had premium steak combo w/ salmon grilled too.. while my hubby was trying the burger... a GIANT burger.. He ate the burger until very full... too big la... we shared2 our food too..
*See pic.. Raymond w/ his burger..
After dinner, we went back home. My sis and her hubby joined us too 'cos she said she wanted to visit my mother-in-law. They stopped by for a while, and about 10pm, they went back to their hotel by TAXI.
On Wednesday, we had our lunch together at Orchard Tower 4th Floor. My sis had tom yum soup, a very nice tom yum soup. Affordable too.. only $4 per bowl. I had rice mixed w/ curry fish and veggies. My bro-in-law had a plate of fried rice and shared the tom yam soup w/ my sis.
They checked their room out at 2pm, then went to the airport. At nite, I was having a class.. haiz....
On Saturday, my cousin came back to Singapore. He smsed me at 9.30pm saying that they have arrived and he fell sick. He got fever and had no medicine. So I smsed him back and asked him to buy Panadol at 7-11. Luckily he managed to find the shop. At least it might help him for that night.
On Sunday morning, I went to my bro's house at Bishan to see them. We had our breakfast together, then accompanied my cousin's wife to buy 'bakwa' @J8. When we went up, he's still having high fever. Afraid that the authority may not allow him to fly in the airport later... I asked him to see doctor. And luckily the doctor still operates although it's Sunday. He got a jab to make his fever down. At 1pm we went to the airport together. They went it straight away after checked their luggage in. Me and my son went around the Changi Airport for few hours there while waiting my mom to come. She was coming from Jakarta at the same day, together w/ her brothers and sis-in-laws.
My son and I took a look at the new Terminal 3. We'd never been there before, so we took skytrain from Terminal 1 to 3. The new terminal is huge!!! But not many people yet, except at the food court. We had our lunch at Popeye Chicken. It's been quite some time since we had the Popeye Chicken. Then we browsed up to level 3 and 4. Then we went to Terminal 2 and waited for my mom to arrive. We had Yakun Kaya Toast too while waiting for my mom.. *See pic below
Her flight only came after 5pm. She came out at almost 6pm. We went to a serviced-apartment at Far East with 2 maxi cab. Reaching there, they packed out their things. Then my relative came. They chatted for a while.
At 9pm, we had our dinner at Crystal Jade Restaurant at Takashimaya level 4. We were 16 people altogether and had a very nice dinner.. just made me getting fat and fatter... We finished at 11pm, and we went back by taxi lorrrr......
Wah.. anyway, I kept continuing busy until today (Friday). I don't have enough rest yet...
Tomorrow morning I still have to go to Far East to meet my mom and bring her to Chinatown to buy bakwa for my sis, and maybe to Bugis to pray. Then go home. She said she wanted to wash her clothes at my house. But I've washed some of them just now.. Quite tiring. It's 1.40am now.. Dunno what time will I wake up tomorrow... Hope I can get enough rest tomorrow... Hiks hiks...
