Day 3 was spent at the Singapore Science Centre and Omni Thetre.
Funny that we probably had the least ground to cover and yet we actually stayed till closing and STILL couldn't complete all that we wanted to see.
Another good place to go that doesn't change much, and yet still entertaining every year or two.
Such fun!
Day 2 we spent it at the zoo, followed by the River Safari, which has now been renamed, River Wonders.
Doesn't feel like there has been that many changes, but still a nice place to visit every year or so.
So in the absence of our Germany trip, the kids had their staycation while we planned a local Singapore holiday for a week with the kids,
On the first day we planned a long hiking trip.
The day started with breakfast at Seah Im Food Center near Vivocity.
From there we started up Mt Faber.
We hike through to cross the Henderson Waves.
Followed by Alexadria Arch.
Lunched at the HortPark.
Then proceeded to complete the Kent Ridge trail.
Finally ending at Haw Par Villa.
Tiring, but it was a very fun and fulfilling hike.
The kids might've felt it was too taxing thought.
But still great fun!
My daughter was showing off her battlescars from learning cycling from my dad.
I'm still amazed that two days was all it took for dad to train her in cycling.
Just amazing.
But her bruises look a lot worse than they actually were.
Haha.
Since we didn't get to travel to Germany, we decided to spend some of that money saved, on a cheap but huge-ass new television set.
Take a look at our 80" TV!
It's HUGE and it fits our living room wall so well!
So our Germany trip was meant to be the highlight of 2021.
It was supposed to be my only overseas trip of 2021.
It was supposed to help me maintain my travel streak of going overseas every year since I was born.
But alas, it was not meant to be.
In the end, the Omicron variant enveloped the world and news of its spread became too worrisome.
We had to make a decision one week before the trip, at the height of all the negative news of the rapid spread of Omicron.
So sad.
Well we have next year's trip to Germany to look forward to now.
After almost 16 years, we will be moving premises.
So many memories, especially with me and Eugene starting almost from day one.
I'm definitely gonna miss this place, even though the new place looks fantastic (a huge upgrade!).
Looking back, so much of the office has remained the same, the walls, flooring and furniture.
Thanks for the memories, Samsung Hub!
Dad sent some of these photos from yesteryear.
Features my dad's side of the family and my cousins, aunts and uncles.
