Mervyn Hoe: My Daily Happenings

  On 15th December 2014, we celebrated my mother's 65th Birthday! It was a simple affair with a simple strawberry cake! And the children simply placed the candles on the small available space on the cake. It's memorable and love the pictures!   My mother and my three children! We had to borrow the lighter from our neighbour! Look at the candles! There is just not enough space to place all of them. A happy picture of Kate   Grandmothers and grandchildren    Our family picture with the cake! My mother, my sister and my three children, just after we sang the Happy Birthday song...  My love ones! :) Honestly, I am very thankful to have my mum to be supportive in whatever I do ever since I'm young. After I graduated from university, she supported me in giving me the green light to be an insurance adviser! Until today, I'm so glad that I did not make the wrong decision and stayed in this fulfilling career! Thanks Mum! ...

We went to Penang and Ipoh for 5 days from 17th Nov 2014 to 21st Nov 2014 and it was one of the best family travel we had ever gone to.   We were so amazed that the flight from Singapore to Penang is only 90 minutes !   We chose Jetstar for the flight to Penang We left Singapore at 1050am and reached Penang International Airport at 1220pm! All of us felt so excited for this Penang trip.    I used to study History and Penang was one of the Straits Settlement, just like Singapore. I feel that she has so much potential to be well-developed and she has so much beauty (be it nature and the colourful buildings). Hope that there will be improvements of the public transport like increased train network and bus transportation too. The great, tasty food is something we always are looking forward to try. And I'm glad that my children love their food too! Our 2 days stay at Penang made us love this place.   Some beautiful snap shots in Penan...
