散步的狗狗

We went strolling after dinner last night, around my house, for about 30mins. Niki and Wimpy pant so hard that they refuse to move after cleaning them up. Both were so tired.

It's been a long while since they have such a nice walk, and I was constantly telling myself to make the effort to bring them for a walk, even if it's just 10 mins.

So, I wanna be a good mummy, excercise them and make they healthy!

Finally Back !!

I manage to squeeze my luggage by sitting on it to zip them up, all because of this lil' sofa for niki wimpy!

Alrights, they didn't really sleeeep on it, but at least they played on it.

So, my weekend back in Singapore was awesome! The first thing I did, was to have baby fetching me, and we had a great dinner together. Finally I'm home. And of course, I quickly rush home to my dearest baby nik and baby wimpy! They were SOOOO HAppy!!

We didn't sleep until 2plus, and Niki Wimpy were soooo tired. <3

Saturday was good. We spent time at home and we went walking the dogs to look at our future site. No photos taken. So, we already have an idea of how we're gonna choose our flat. :D

A long walk, and manage to work out the two kids. They are getting fatter and fatter! And I promise myself to bring them for walks at least once every two days. I need them to excercise if not ah pui is getting fatter ~~ T.T

Sunday, we went to Kim's birthday celebration at Aloha.
Ah baby and I <3
Finally had some Satay!!!

TRAVEL: Shanghai - Colleagues Farewell

Today is my last day of work.
We had a little celebration, Pizza for lunch! <3
And I requested a group photo to be taken for keepsake.



The OTF team: (My direct colleagues)
left to right:
Dias, Emily, Evy, Estee, Me, Cheryl, Julie, Ten.


They are a bunch of fun loving people. Kind hearted (CHINA PEOPLE - yes!) colleagues. They cared for me and taken of me pretty well. Always worried that I don't eat, they will bring me a bun or crackers for tea. They brought me to badminton session twice a week after work, and brought me to play Pool <3 We had some nice dinners, nice drinks by the river, and some short shopping.. They also recommend me places to visit and make sure I know what to expect. 

Even though I'm still alone most of the time, but I'm grateful enough. They all are just a call away and they can do all sorts of things.....together! I think, this is something we the Singapore team can't do. Well, different culture and different society. We all have families while most of them are single over there. 

Take care my dear colleagues;
Till we meet again!

TRAVEL: Shanghai - 南京路,朱家角古镇

This is a super long post with loads of photos.

IT'S SATURDAY!!
Today's itinery: Go back to office to get my log-in device (yes the blur me left it in the office), followed by The Bund, then NanJing Road (南京路), and lastly, Zhu Jia Jiao Town (朱家角古镇)

Went out at 10am
Done my picking up and continued my journey to Pu Xi (浦西) - over the Nan Pu Bridge (南浦大桥)



And so I alighted at The Bund (外滩) along Zhong Shan Nan Lu (中山南路) and walked a lil..



The Bund is actually like our Singapore River. Surrounded by awesome buildings, financial buildings and those important history.




There are a lot of people, but because the the area is super huge, I don't feel squeezy. Nice weather, and people are all busy taking pictures.

Taken by my phone! hehehee....

Alrights, so moving on the Shanghai's famous fashion street. I was expecting myself to buy some stuff, but I was wrong wrong and wrong. I think I forgotten that i'm in China.






This place actually reminds me of Bugis Street.
They have huge buildings, mostly (empty) shopping malls and a lot of people along the streets.


This is the famous Nan Jing Lu Walking Street (南京路步行街) just like Bugis Street!




This poodle look so reluctant.






But because the whole street is so so big, there is a tourist train.











Finally found the sports shop for Tommy!!
Li Ning - they carry a lot of badminton stuff.

But too bad, they only left with L sizes. Didn't manage to get his stuff.

And I decided to walk to 人名广场. Took me 30 mins to reach! And I went by 世纪广场!! Oh I didn't know it's here.


(Today's weather - 24 degrees!)
























And I found the place to take bus to 朱家角古镇




50 mins ride to the town 朱家角.



And I reach!
Took a tricycle (SGD 2) into the town.



And my tour starts....


Got ba chang !!
Initially wanted to try, but but see so many flies, I really dont dare. Coz I dont wanna get myself into serious tummy issues as I have to take a 50 mins bus ride back to Pu Xi ... =.=

But it does look yummy! And I saw many people buying and eating a long the way. Well... Its' okay . :)




This place is like a another vernice. A rive in the middle with loads of people staying around it. And they have this tourist boat that initially I wanted to take. But it's really a big turn off when I see people throwing stuff into the river!











So... that marks my day.
I am happy, and the bus got stucked in the traffic jam on our way back. Finally get to rest after walking for a total of 6 hours!


Buys for the day, cookie!!
