八月十四在裕华园

It's Little Arielle's Chinese birthday today and as such, we decided to make it special by bringing her to the Chinese Gardens. Hmm, why Chinese Gardens leh?? Cos there's the Hello Kitty and Friends lantern on display. Hmm, I guessed it's gonna be an exciting one since Hello Kitty is so popular in Singapore.

It's almost like 20-25 years since the both of us last visited this garden. Wat seh, seems like we haven't been to a lot of places for a long long time. But dun worry, Little Arielle will help us recall the past hee!

Tickets cost $15 each and it's free for children below 3 years old. This is the price you have to pay to see Hello Kitty and you get a free paper lantern! It's 6pm+ when we were in the garden and so the lightings were not on. However, all the lanterns started to light up at about 7pm. Wow, this is really facinating! All the characters seem to glow from far! And they really attract a lot of attention which is no good cos everyone started to squeeze in to have their pic taken! XP was so annoyed by a man who tried to take pic for either his kid or grandchild. Not sure if he did it on purpose or wat but he just came blocking in front of XP when XP was already in position to take pic for us. XP was so mad that he purposely went to block that man but that man simply can't be bothered. Hee can see the angry look on XP's face! Hmm bo pian lor! This is what happens in crowded places!

Saw a lot of kids holding on to those nice balloons. Little Arielle immediately recognised one of the characters - Dora. Thought of getting it for her but then again, it's only for that few hours and she wasn't even pestering me for it. So, better not spoil her too much hee and save a bit of money! It so happened that one of the visitors there passed by Little Arielle and gave her a small heart shaped balloon! That's the good thing about being cute hee! Gifts will automatically be given hahahaha!

Realised that Little Arielle had a cut on her right leg. Aiyo, dun noe how it actually happen. Quickly wipe off the blood and luckily the cut is not deep!

Anyway, it was indicated on the notice that there would be fireworks at 8.30pm. So we decided to leave after watching the fireworks. Well, it was quite a disappointing one but it's better than nothing.

What do you think?
