Arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport on Saturday morning.

Hui En is excited with the various Lunar New Year decorations which can be seen in all public places now. Here is a photo of her in Tampines 1. (don’t know why she chose to strike a ballerina pose)

I was at the COSEM office at Sungei Kadut for my Fire Practical Certification. Here are some shots taken from the training.

Hui En has requested on numerous occasions that we take her to the beach for a picnic and an opportunity to build sand castles. Her request was finally granted today.

We initially wanted to get a sand castle set from the neighbourhood shops, but Wei Wei had difficulty sourcing for it. So there was no other alternatives other than getting the sand castle set at East Coast Park. There, we found Castles Can Fly. So I got the cheapest set available there, which is the Beachwork Tools Deluxe Set. Hui En loved her set very much. So much so that she asked me on our trip home after the picnic whether her castle set was packed properly and that it was all brought back home.

We had a fun time today. We left when the sky was already dark. Time to head for home for shower and sleep, especially for Hui En, whom on numerous occasions today, mentioned that she was very happy.

Here are some snapshots taken today.

Our tent:

Family shot taken at the beach.

Hui En with Yen, her cousin. Hui En is not confident enough to wade into the lapping water, so she clinged to Yen.

Here is a shot taken while Hui En was flying a kite. The kite can be spotted in the photo as a tiny dot at the upper portion of the photo.

Hui En is accustomed to the life in Singapore. Where there are no land at the front of the door.

When she was back in Ipoh for the Chinese New Year holidays, she enjoyed doing tasks that kids would normally shun. For example, watering the plants, cleaning the porch and washing the car. However, for Hui En, it was a rare chance for her to perform such ‘chores’. She enjoyed doing them, and would request to do them on a daily basis.

Here are some shots taken when she was cleaning the car.

As requested by Hui En, we caught the movie, “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader” today at GV Tampines. We enjoyed the movie.

After the movie we adjourned to Time Zone arcade for some fun.

Below is a photo of Hui En on a car ride.
