Sat: Bus13 to GeylangSeraiFoodCentre

30Chicken+10Beef satay-sticksS$36 thanks to CDC-vouchers but Lontong was sold out at all the stalls, could not resist these little chocolate-filled-cakes which turned out to be good&fresh(according to #6 and I agreed)and a bowl of my favouite original Cendol without RedBeans. Bus7-Rochalie to meet with KittyEuDeen and nice to catch up – was it really 10yrs ago since we last met?

MRT-TEL-NapierSta changing at MarinaBay-CCL-BayFrontSta – weekend crowds underground is not my idea of fun but cheaper than taking Cab or Grab and thank goodness heading to exitB on the LeftSide and not straight ahead in this pix.

Room service with SatayDinner for family who are at a staycation@MBS – nice cabinet equipped with an amazing Tea-set+a kettle that I would like! Also a drink-trolly like this one is rather tempting, but would probably choke at the prices of a drink in a hotel-room like this one, hahaha!

Walked from MBSMRT with a slight drizzle – high on humidity and too many cyclists+ppl for me, but good to see ppl outside enjoying the weekend.

MRT-TEL ~20:45hrs from GardensByTheBay-MarineTerrace. What caught my eyes was this bag lying in front with no one there. Was plesantly surprised to actually see a staff walking up and down doing her job to let some ppl know to not eat on the train, the same staff who also gave me some attention when I informed her that there were a few drops of water dripping from ceiling which she checked and took pix. Most times when these red-jackets-staff are seen, they have their eyes glued to their phones but this one did not only just do that, despite of this pix!

Bite my tongue! for mentioning in the previous post about living where ppl can peacefully worship their choice of faith!! Just read this evening.

Sun: another surprise to discover that the tree outside the kitchen window has been trimmed at the top – OMG! they did take notice of my feedback about this from Jan 2025 and such a pity that I missed the action – hahaha!

Jan2025 – have seen this tree since it was a tiny sapling, ie~20+yrs ago. Impressed how promptly MarineP-TC replied to whatever issues addressed to them and how quickly they have taken actions of my concerns&questions since my moved here ~25yrs ago!

Joy-ride on Bus36 on this rainy late afternoon. Appreciations with thanks for yummy dinner where #6 describe this dish as Duck-SoftTacos!@ImperialTreasureSuperPekingDuck/Paragon.

Mon: what a day – Campers’Corner, OYEYO,

LittleIndia with his first taste of MangoLassi; Chinatown where he discovered that he likes FriedMushroom

Tue: MandaiRainForest – tkx to Clement

Have never been a fan of these creatures since they attacked me during visits@SBG during childhood days and will do my best to keep my distance – folded umbrella and or walking stick with me when knowing that they might be in my path!

EC-Pk sunset with the BoomerangEatingTree! dinner@DinTaiFung/PP ending another busy day ~12,000steps and with a few hands of RussianPoker before crashing – impressed at how fast he learns but not sure if there will be enough energy with this mormor to last with an active 14yr young teenage stud! for the next few days!!
