today, we decided not to laze at home and to have a family outing... and so we jio jace (joelle's sis) and also to bring along the kids... megan's happy that she is going out today...
and its a hot hot afternoon... despite the gloomy morning sky, the rain did not come, and in fact, it ended up a hot sunny day...
as usual, megan enjoying the taxi ride...
time to reveal where we are heading today... the botanic garden...
like i said, its a hot hot day... and there're lotsa people at the park...
and along the way, we took lotsa photo...
then we came across this really really tall tree... and valeria look so tiny in this shot...
and not to mention, lotsa flowers... and i dun even know their names at all... flower lor... :P
and some... really funny yet familiar plants... keke...
ah ha... how can we miss this one? its the famous bandstand, erected as early as 1860s, and now, a very popular spot for outdoor bridal shoot... in fact, there's a wedding and some bridal shooting going on today...
megan was 'borrowed' in this shot... here's jace and son, daryl...
and here's the swiss ball fountain... the granite ball weighs 700kg and strong water pressure is used to keep it spinning.., and the spinning represents striving for excellence... hope valerie and daryl strike for excellence in their studies too... oh ya, where's nicky wor? poor him, down with flu and was grounded at home...
and the swan lake... by the name of it, we can assume seeing lotsa swans eh? i can only find 2 swans, and later only to find out that these two swans are from amsterdam and they are mute... anyway, the swans seems shy and hide at a small island in the center of the pond, so i just capture this... oh ya, i remembered being here when i was really really small... and my little bro fall into this lake and was rescued by my dad, as back then, wilson was even smaller and the pond seems so deep... we really got a fright...
the pond is actually full of turtles and fishes swimming around...
valerie and daryl then 'steal' some of megan's bread and started feeding the turtles and fishes... ghee, the pond still looking very deep wor...
and another popular bridal shot spot... the waterfall where you can walked behind it...
and so i walked behind the waterfall and hey, can see megan and joelle outside the waterfall?
we didn't go into the orchid garden as it isn't free... and the drinks, ice-cream and finger foods are so darn expensive at the park... no wonder everyone's bring their own food and picnic on the spot...
a few hours of walking, and the day's coming to an end... feeling so tired but feeling great to hang out a day, outdoor with the kids... going to KO soon... :P
