Outings

Trying hard to wrap up the month of November with this last post before we crossed over to December and before you know it, it's going to be a brand new year. Like how fast can time flies rite.

 

Anyhow we had a pretty busy November and definitely my favourite month being my hatchday month. As mentioned previously, we managed to squeeze in our short road trip at the very last minute. On top and above, we went for HomeTeam Festival and Navy@Vivo. Basically that 4 days of leaves including weekend was really jam packed with activities, leaving me with dead exhaustion after which. You see, Navy@Vivo was the day after we returned from the road trip.

 

Going to the HomeTean Festival was rather a last minute decision as well with Zethan in mind, how excited he is at the Fire engines, Red Rhino and the gist. It was really crowded as we went on a Sunday and Expo was packed with a few events. There were long queues practically in the whole exhibition even to tour the vehicles or snap a picture with it and we had to selectively find the activities for participation.

We had to go for Navy@Vivo as we got the tickets through balloting and this time we are going on board RSS Endurance which is supposed to be one of their biggest fleet. It was drizzling before we set off and I was crossing fingers that they will not cancel due to safety reasons otherwise I would have a whole load of thinking to do, explaining to Zethan for his disappointment.

Fortunately luck is on our side and we did not have to be in the queue for long going through the security checks and then boarding the ship. The tour around the ship was a much pleasant one as compared to our last visit as the crowd control was near to perfect and in an orderly systematic manner. Thought this RSS Endurance was indeed much more impressive but I am not going into the details, the bombastic technical terms which I am totally hopeless in. The only complains I have are we met a few Indians (no racism intended) who ignore us and cut our queue which I have no qualms to telling them off.

Oh we purposely hang around the deck and saw the Sunset Ceremony unfold right in front of us. It was such a formal ceremony but the experience could have been near to perfect if not for 2 Indians boys pushing their way to where we are at the front and squeezing Zethan out of view. Despise these parents, irresponsible and rude, allowing their children to act at their whim and fancy. Seriously I am real mad at them for pushing Zethan away.

 

Nonetheless I am sure Zethan had fun while I had a good exercise beco-ing Zelyn and climbing the numerous steep steps! Trust me, I had muscle ache the next day!
