Sand Angels

Last December, on the 17th, Fio and I brought the kids to Sentosa, together with our mums. We had the most fantastic time from 10am till almost 6pm! We started our day by relaxing at the Palawan beach, making sandcastles and sand angels, just like what my cousins and I used to do in Sentosa as kids. 

Can you spot the sand angels?

I really cherish the bonding lunch at the adjacent foodcourt. To see 3 generations of grandmothers (who are sisters) and cousins sitting together, munching on scrumptious food at our old haunt (our mothers used to bring us to Sentosa very frequently too) - this is truly priceless. 

We ambled around Sentosa before we chanced upon a story-telling session for "The Gingerbread Man" at the Images of Singapore area. That was when I discovered Little Bee's flair and passion for showmanship! When the story teller asked for volunteers on stage, she was waving her arms so desperately! Eventually, she was selected to sing "Jingle Bells" and she did it with much gusto and bravado, with everyone clapping in rhythm to her singing! Bravo, Little Bee! 

Big Bee is the brainy one. After much persuasion from me, she participated in a quiz on stage - and won a prize as well. So, we have 2 happy girls with early Christmas presents from Sentosa! 

Big Bee went to the Butterfly Park with Fio as I have this irrational (and ridiculous) fear of butterflies and moths. She had a great time with Yiyi Fio, taking photos of the gigantic butterflies and screeching whenever any behemoth butterfly fluttered past her! Meanwhile, the rest of us had a great time resting languidly at the cafe outside, slurping ice-cream and sipping coffee! 

We ended the long but wonderful day with a stroll around Resorts World, awed by their colossal Christmas tree and soaked with relish in the overall joyous holiday mood!
