Cycling across Park Connector

-
Cycling has never been so exciting, and to see the children enjoying and exploring the new places, it's truly rewarding. 

On Wednesday morning, our family with Josh's friend met to venture the Kallang Park Connector! 

All geared up with scooters and bicycles! 

We were thankful that the weather was fine and windy too! 

Personally speaking,  I really love this bridge! The children were exhilarated when they reached it! Unblocked view 360 degrees! 

Thanks to Kelly for the family photo.

Initially, I intended to jog throughout the Park Connector. Instead, I rented the Ofo bike. I'm really thankful to find one at a nearby block. 

We reached Potong Pasir, and it was well built with new bridges and greens. The Kallang River was clean, rubbish free! 

We spotted many patches of plants mixed with lalang, cow grass, creeper plants and morning glory. We tried to find grasshoppers. Instead, we spotted butterflies, carpenter bees, Sting bug, water hens and their chicks, herons and egrets!

Sara's enjoying herself in the morning walk with her chocolate bread! 

Kate was trying to catch the sting bug! She was so determined to catch it and her hard work paid off! She caught two of them! 

They found a small centipede!  Kate was swift to use the plastic container to catch it on the floor. The children were so fascinated by it. However, sadly the centipede escaped and it crawled towards Sara's shoe. Sara didn't know and stepped on it. And it died. Oops.

We continued our cycling journey to a nearby beef shop along MacPherson road. 

After the simple lunch, we cycled back and reached back to Bishan within 15 minutes! It's certainly a great way of gathering and exercise, not forgetting appreciating the nature, tunnels (CTE), river and animals! 

I feel that our next ride, we will venture towards Whampoa and National Stadium! 

We should also need to bring the bicycle helmets too!

Kate's 2! A simple birthday celebration!

Kate turns 2 years old on 11th July 2013! And coincidentally, it's 2 day old for our new born too! We had to celebrate it at Mount Alvenia and it's certainly a fun celebration for Kate, and it's a simple affair too! We didn't manage to cook dinner and we ordered extra meals from the hospital. It's only $8 per set and they provide soup, vegetables and meat, fruits and juice! Really worth it. They only can provide a maximum of 3 meals! Josh ate all his rice and Kate loves the fish! Amazing. Of course, we didn't tell them that we are having birthday cake later. Or else, they will not be eating much of their dinner. Family feast! Love the pork vinegar dish! Oops! Pouring some of our home cooked soup that I prepared for lunch. Luckily we brought because we finished all the soups! Mother and son. Kate is such a loving sister. She pats her new born sister, as she was placed on the trolley which is used for the jaundice UV Machine. ...

Today, it's a fun day, well sort of. Got up and rushed straight to French Embassy for my first french lesson (beginner course). My teacher is Franck. He's a humorous teacher and overall, I find that french is an exquiste language, very special and interesting. I've learnt basic greetings for today. And time really passed very fast after learning. The classmates are of different background and age, and we are all having the same base of french (aka, having no knowledge at all) haa.. Yiwen and I actually wanna go to Orchard. However, we took the wrong side. We took 171 to Bukit Timah area instead! Then we U-turned. I went to Pointers to cut my hair. And it happened that the manager cut my hair. So lucky eh? Not many people would have the chance to actually cut by him, have to make appointment and pay $20. But because he is shorthanded, he came and help out... :@) Then, I rushed to meet Shaun to go to Camp to clear all our stuff. Lucky got him to help me drive fr...
