Al'Frank Cookies

On our 1st day of arrival back to spore, we went to ica to get my passport and within 20 mins i got it. 

I am so missing spore fast and efficient manner of processing documents, even Kristi thought that i was applying for passport not getting it! She was surprised it was ready for collection as in the states u would have to queue to submit documents and queue again for collection. Here we only need to apply online and i was asked to collect after 3 days. Thumbs up!!! In Japan countryside, S had to fill up 4-5 paperwork manually and to be told that something was lacking or wrongly filled up (when it was their staff that told us or given us the wrong forms or information). So don't go complaining abt Spore too much, i had learnt to appreciate what our government had done throughout the years.

After that we went bugis to have lunch and haji lane to shop around. There was a new cookie store at Haji Lane called al'frank cookies. The cookies aroma were too sinful too resist and we ate 4 days later, it was just as good as the 1st day!

A day @ Singapore Zoo

As mentioned in earlier post, i went back to Singapore and for the 1st week, Kristi came along with me to tour around the lion city. My lovely cousin Katherine took leave and brought us to the zoo with her corporate pass. Since the pass allowed 1 more person, her dad joined us along. 

I was not expecting much from the zoo actually the last time i went was many years ago, but it turned out to be 1 of my best tours. In fact we enjoyed so much that we spent 5 hours in the zoo and my uncle whom supposed to leave earlier due to his lesson (he is a driving instructor), he cancelled his class and walked throughout with no complaint (bear in mind that he's close to 70 years old!). 

It was pouring when we were on our way and when we reached it was almost ending... hence the weather was pretty cooling. We managed to see all animals and many of them were within our vicinity. Such fun!
