It's Ching Ming again, a day to remember and pay respect to the deceased members of our family. We arrived early at Bright Hill Temple to pray to late Great Granny, Grandma and Great Grand Aunt.
We then visited one of Grandpa's best friends of many decade, Uncle Ya Choon, for breakfast. Uncle and Auntie Ya Choon own a noodle store and their wan ton mee is truly the best in town!

6 Apr 2006 - De La Salle School Excursion to Kids Kampong
Today's a wonderful day!
My teacher, Candy Chua, brought us on an excursion to the Kid's Kampong and my Daddy Alvin came along with us as a parent volunteer.
We first learn about mice and rats. We watched in awe as a mouse trainer handled the animals with his bare hands. We did it too!
It was scary to feel the mouse at first...
But soon, Robyn became more daring...
Robyn and friends feeding the kois.
After feeding the kois, it's now feeding time for the hundry kids. Everyone sit and munch away at their packed lunches and snack. It's rest and recharge time for the kids...
L: It's "long-gang" fishing time. Daddy told me that when he was a boy, he used to catch fishes at "long-gang" (drains).
R: Robyn and friends showing off their catch for the day!
