First Visitors to Singapore




Our first visitors, Aunt Jennifer and cousin Fleming, arrived late April and will be here through May!! Uncle Robbie joined us too for about ten days!! What FUN we are having with family around!

Another Zoo Trip

We had a great time at the zoo recently! We saw the polar bear show this time, which was a lot of fun! The bears waved to us and we enjoyed watching them catch LIVE fish and eat them as a snack. The white lion was very active pacing back and forth. The lion was massive and a little scary! We visited the kangaroos and could even reach out and touch them! They were very comfortable with us around. We ended our day at the zoo with the girls playing in an over-sized bird cage and then of course we had to have some Ben and Jerry's ice cream to cool us down!

Easter Bunny




"Does the Easter Bunny come to Singapore?", PE asked. "Of course he does!", I replied! And yes, the Easter Bunny did come ALL THE WAY to Singapore! The girls got lots of candy, eggs, and of course new bathing suits and cover ups! What an exciting morning we had!

Singapore Zoo Night Safari





We arrived at the Night Safari ready for excitement and adventure! The girls loved watching the fire show, where men swallowed fire, spit fire, and twirled batons with fire on the ends! PE and Baby Girl were amazed!! We went on a tram ride through the zoo to see the animals in their habitats at night! Baby Girl especially liked seeing the lions! While there, Daddy and PE paid money to stick their feet in a tank of fish and let the fish eat the dead skin off their feet!!!! YUCK!! Daddy tried to get me to do it, but I just could not even entertain the idea!! No thank you!!

Lots of toys to play with and goodies to snack on kept the children (ages 1-5years old) entertained! What a HOT DAY~~about 32 degrees Celsius! Everybody had a fun time!

Flowers at Singapore Botanic Gardens








The flowers at the gardens were absolutely beautiful. I had so many photos I wanted to share, so I just added another post featuring the gardens!

Singapore Botanic Gardens










The Singapore Botanic Gardens were absolutely breath taking! We saw all sorts of unique flowers! Lots of people were having picnics and playing on the grounds. We ate at a restaurant in the gardens and enjoyed the atmosphere of the lush green plants. The dinner was fantastic~~we had great food, nice wine, and delicious dessert!
