Chinese New Year 2009
25 January 2009 Chinese New Year this year falls on 26 January 2009, Monday. So, New Year's Eve is on a Sunday. As usual, we had our reunion dinner at home on that day. Mummy prepared lots of food for our steamboat feast. Yummy...
 See, so much food! Haha...
 We had Sharkfin Soup as well...
 Then after dinner, daddy opened a bottle of champagne.. its fruits flavour.. pineapple... 26 January 2009Yup.. then on the first day of CNY, we went to both grandparents' house to 拜年, had lunch at 婆婆's house and then dinner at 外婆's house... our usual routine for CNY.. and then thats the end of the day.. haha.. we don't visit our other relatives as most of them are not in S'pore... 27 January 2009 Today's the second day of CNY... so we decide to go to Sentosa for a family outing.. haha.. before that we went down to Loyang Temple first... since this year is the year of the Ox, so outside the temple you can actually see 6 reallife ox.. but they all look so lazy just sitting down n eating.. haha...
 This is one of the ox... the only white one there...
 Then we are on our way to Sentosa.. this time we drove our car in.. so we got there pretty fast...
 There's the flower exhibition again this year at Sentosa, just like the one we went to 2 years back... yup.. and as expected we see alot of people from you-know-where country and also alot of foreign workers there... seriously Singapore must to so small and boring with no other places to go.. so thats why all those people go to sentosa... haiz...
 There's this place where you can see animals performing.. like parrots and such.. and well, the admission is FREE.. so well you know... lots of people gather there..
 My Dad, Mum, Me & Murphy
 We were waiting for the ride up the Tiger Sky Tower... 2 years back it was called the Carlsberg Sky Tower.. haha so i predict that soon it will be called the Heniken Sky Tower!!!
 Inside the Sky Tower.. My bro, Mervin, Mum & Murphy
 Murphy, Me & Daddy
 Murphy insisted he wants to take a photo using the camera... so that's me and my dad...
 Some of the scenery i took from the sky tower... there you can see the Merlion...
 This is the construction site for the casino...
 Look at the crowd below...
 Then we went to sit the Luge and Skyride... this is the skyride, which is something like the cable car.. but the scary part is that you are having your legs hanging in midair!!! So scary!!! I don't think i'll ever sit a second time!!!
 Haha.. I'm very proud of this photo.. because i finally manage to snap a photo of the tiny little bee that is flying around a bush of flowers...
 Us while queuing for the Luge ride.. haha... we look so funny with the helmets on...
 The flower exhibition... very crowded.. with lots of people from you-know-where country.. so we can't really be bothered to squeeze with them...
 I compiled some of the photos of the flowers there...
 Another one more compliation... So that's how i spend CNY this year... tomorrow everything will be back to normal... so i feel that this year's CNY is really nothing much... unlike last year's.... Anyway... Happy Lunar New Year to you all!!!!
