Play date with TD

Kae hung out with her little friend today. Theodore was just so excited to be in Kerri's red car seat. I think he must like the color red! He was so amused and smiling so happily when in the car.

Or maybe there is something about little kids hanging out with older children. I remember when Kae was his age, she only likes to hang out with older kids, and she kind of ignore kids her own age. Hah!

More play dates to come in the future!

the 2 Dragon Boys

We took the time to visit the dragon boys Rayner and Justin today. They were born 6 months apart and are the sons of my 2 cousins. 

Babies are just so cute yah?

Color and Chye Seng Huat

The first thing I did when I'm back in Singapore was to do my hair! Yes! I need a new cut and a new color!

Tada! My new highlights and new bangs. Heh heh! Thank you Dave from Hair Folio (located at The Adelphi).

After the haircut, me and dar proceeded to Chye Seng Huat for coffee. This was our first time there. I wanted to see what all the hype was all about. I like their pastries. Their coffee was nice too. But due to the inaccessible location plus the fact that I don't drive, I won't be returning anytime soon, unless the hubs want to head there again.

Queensland Trip Day 10

And it is time to head home! Our last group shot at Marriott.

We had a quick breakfast at the hotel's restaurant. And I was quite impressed by the wide variety of food served for breakfast! They even have 5-6 big fridges with food like yoghurt, cheese, desserts in them so people can have them chilled!

Soon after, we reached the airport. 

Guess who we saw at the airport? Heh.

We had to feed Kerri her milk before we board the plane. In the hope she would pass motion first haha! And she did! During boarding!

I think Kae enjoyed herself very much during this trip. She got to take fun rides and go to so many different plaes. And she got to play at the beach. She is old enough to comprehend what a overseas holiday is all about.

And kudos to us too! We survived the 10 days! Heh!

One precious lesson we learnt. We would never take a red eye flight again with the girls. Kerri was so much more well behaved during the flight back. She had enough sleep the night before, and she thoroughly enjoyed herself on the plane watching her favorite Dora shows available inflight. 

Our trip ended on a high; we sighted a rainbow just before landing!

Till our next family trip!

Queensland Trip Day 9 Part 2 - Brisbane

And just as we thought we really have to end up eating at the hotel's restaurant, we chanced by this quaint little restaurant as we walked down the river broadwalk.

I liked the whole set up of Venice Restaurant. European chic I would call it. We were lucky to get a table as we were early. Most tables were already reserved by the customers. 

Their food was quite good from what I remembered. Well worth the price. Quite an expensive place really. Their mains cost like Aud40.

After dinner, we walked out and saw that the Story Bridge was lighted up. Pretty!

The restaurant was only a mere minutes walk away from Marriott. When we head back, we checked with the counter staff and they helped us get a cab for departure to the airport the next morning.

With nothing planned for the rest of the night, we decided to let the girls have their last dip in Aussie land. As with Rumba Resort, only the jacuzzi pool was heated  and kept warm. So, that was where we let the girls play with water. The swimming area is partially opened; the sides were not walled and you could see the night view from the pool area.
