Last weekend

Christian’s swim class was postponed last Saturday so we spent the morning at the Botanic Gardens at P’s request. I think he suggested it because he missed out on so much of the previous picnic. 

The kids were happily chanting ‘picnic picnic’ as we left the house, and i’m glad to say that I enjoyed myself immensely this time.

We played catch with a tennis ball and a velcro catcher that Christian received from his school last year as a Children’s Day gift. We had so much fun a tourist couple came up to us and asked where we bought it. We also kicked ball and I laughed and laughed at the bad aims. Er. That is, P and I did the above. Christian did try but was more interested in running around and eating. =7

We blew bubbles, went hurtling down the hill again, looked at dragonflies at the pond, gardens3and finished off by helping Christian put his skates on and letting him skate about on the paved roads, ogling at the many dogs at the same time.

Everybody was tired and hungry by the time we left the Gardens at around noon. We drove to Somerset 313 to have lunch at Ootoya, where we had the most delicious charcoal-grilled chicken. It was a coincidence that we wandered in, cos it turns out that it was one of the Japanese restaurants i’d been meaning to try for sometime (but forgot)..
