Singapore River Cruise
When we visited Merlion Park, Ethan requested to ride on the River Cruise but we were in a rush to somewhere else that we had to decline his request. However in the evening, with slightly over 2 hours to go before boarding our flight, we made a quick dash for the Singapore River Cruise. Unfortunately for us, when we arrived Merlion Park we were told that there will be no boat available until at least […]

Amazing! I can see the Peninsula from Merlion Park!
From the moment we did the passport for Ethan, he knew he’ll be going to Singapore. He doesn’t know much about Singapore except The Merlion and that has been his focus from Day 1 touching down Sin City!

Quotes and Sexy Umbrella Girls
Weather is a great metaphor for life – sometimes it’s good, sometimes it’s bad, and there’s nothing much you can do about it but carry an umbrella.

Marina Food Loft and a culture SHOCK
I might have scared some of you off with the prices of food in Singapore in my Chilli’s entry recently. The fact is, the prices of food in Sin City is extremely affordable if you know where to dine. We’re no foodie bug so we did not specifically go to any place looking for Singapore’s famous food. We had our meals at Marina Food Loft as it is within a walking distance from the hotel […]

New Milk in Town – Dutch Lady Kid & School Milk

Planning a meal for Ethan is a constant headache as I need to take into account how active he is and how nutrients for physical development is just as important as food that emphasizes mental development because he is rapidly growing. When we were in Singapore the other day, Ethan was so engrossed with the travel activities that he doesn’t […]
