Saving Gaia

It seems that what the scientists are saying is true. The earth is getting warmer with each passing year. I still remember when I was much younger, this period of time will be a time where there is less rain and thus a bit warmer.

Now, I believe all will agree with me, the weather are so much scorching hot in Singapore. The moment you step out, you can feel your pesperation on the skin and the burning heat engulfing you.

Are we too late to do anything? Can we still save Gaia (the earth) as the campagin are going around now? I'm not sure. But I believe we all have the responsibility to do our part to ensure the world is still a liveable plce for our future generations.

So lets start now by recycling a bit more, using less non-recyclable items, and save some electricity and water by being conscious of how we use them. As the saying goes, a little thoughts goes a long way.

A Day In Singapore

What can a Singaporean family do in Singapore?

This little red dot don't have much place to go, but yet it have many hidden treasures if you know where to find it.

On this typical day, since I have to look after my son, I decide to take him out. So together with my wife, we pack a little snack and set out for the east coast beach. The weather is good, so once we reach there, Ezra immediately start on his sand castle building.

Since the weather is quite hot, we did not stay very long. After 1.5hr later we decide to take a quick shower and set off to the next location.

IKEA mega store!

Why there? Nothing special except Ezra loves the meatball (and so does Viv) :p. And it is just a stone throw from Giant, which allow us to do a bit of marketing after our lunch.

Our last stop is non other than the new Singapore Icon - Singapore Flyer!

Since its opening, we have past by the Flyer many times, but have not set foot on it before. So it was a good opportunity for us to bring Ezra to the Flyer (since its the school holiday, and they are having a offer). At the booth, Viv and myself decide to just get the membership card since it is a better deal - just $127 after discount!

Ezra simply loves the ride, in fact we love it so much that we planned to return in the evening to get a different view. :p

It was only much later that we realised that as members we are only allow one ride per day :( Thankfully, the usher is graceful to allow us one more ride. Thank God. And the view is simply beautiful!
