Probably we had too much fun and activity yesterday and thus, there is nothing much to be done today. So we had the usual routine - breakfast, followed by Little Arielle's nap and afterwhich, laze around time in the house.
We went out early for dinner today as we din have lunch. Initially, I thought that we are gonna eat somewhere near to our place but was surprised when XP took a different route. He just went walking and walking with Little Arielle and I was trying to catch up behind cos his pace was too fast! After walking for about 15 minutes, I then realised that he is walking to Whampoa market. What seh 是远的 lor! Gotta go up so many overhead bridge and need to cross so many roads! Majiam go on hiking trip leh!
Finally, we reached the Whampoa market. Had satay and a cold sugarcane drink! Best leh!
What is even more best is that we proceeded to collect our durian at Sindy, our favourite durian stall. Simply love the butter durian that they have! So much so that you need to pre-order beforehand cos they always run out of stock! We knew about this cos we did not manage to get the durians for the last 2 rounds. Finally, today, they managed to keep one for us!
After getting our durian, which cost us $27, we gotta walk all the way home again! Decided to stop over at this famous one and only dragon fountation in Singapore. According to XP, this dragon fountain denotes the central of Singapore and even thought the fountain has already dried up, they did not tear it away. But not sure why they are not filling up the water since they decided not to tear it away. Probably it's due to some 风水 beliefs. Was quite happy to be able to see this fountain finally as XP has been telling me how majestic it looks like but I always did not have the chance to see it for myself. Just feel that the worksmanship is done so well and it really made the dragon looks alive!
After some "history" lessons, we continued our journey back home. Hmm, just in time to watch the last espisode of 辛十四娘 and enjoying our durian at the same time! Oh, it's simply heavenly....We shall take a step further as we will drive up North to Desaru in about 2 weeks' time to enjoy more durians!!!
