Over the long weekend, we joined a convoy of cars on a short escapade to Kuala Lumpur. We left on the early morning of Good Friday, along with a good 2-hour’s worth of queue of cars. Horrors! Eventually we arrived into KL shortly after noon and checked into the MiCasa All Suite hotel, just in… Continue reading Kuala Lumpur & Petrosians, The Discovery Centre
I have been particularly enthusiastic teaching the kids about marine life because we spent the last 2 weekends snorkelling in different beach resorts. The minute school was out, we headed up to Pulau Redang in Terengganu, Malaysia. As Singaporeans it is almost impossible to drive for more than 40 minutes (with no traffic, that is)… Continue reading Redang rendezvous at The Taraas
Did you know that May 4th is Star Wars Day? Honestly, I was never a fan of Star Wars when I was growing up, and didn’t think too much of Episodes 1-3.

I have not been to the Trick Eye Museum or the Alive Museum, so I have no idea how… Continue reading Penang 2014 – Part 2, Georgetown
We were actually just in Penang in August, but after our wonderful family trip to Hong Kong, we decided another trip before the end of the year was in order. So with lots of greedy people in our family (and one Baba), we decided to head to Penang. We chose the earliest flight there… Continue reading Penang 2014 – Part 1, Escape Park
Last week we escaped on a 3 day holiday without the kids. Although it was short, we enjoyed the freedom, the company of our friends and of course all the amazing food that Penang has to offer and unbelievable prices. We literally ate throughout the entire day, sampling as much as possible, shopping or taking… Continue reading Thankful Tuesday: Having a village of support for a short break
