Bon Weekend!

Had a good weekend!

Saturday evening was spent at Vivocity with Philifer. Dinner was at Tung Lok Signatures, where they had these white and round cell like cushioned chairs, but we didn't get those seats. The food is good and I especially liked the seafood fried rice. The only thing is - their speed of serving food is SLOW. Nice restaurant anyway, but can get expensive though! Haha.

Then we caught Babel at GV Max, the new wide-screen theatre with a bigger capacity than normal theatres. Seriously, Babel is a good show that kept me thinking and in anticipation. The only problem I have with the show is - the Japanese aren't linked at all to the plot surrounding the absurdity of the Americans. The naked Japanese girl doesn't really add value to the show and it's a little racist when you consider that the Japanese girl showed much more flesh than needed.

Finally went to the HSBC treetop walk this morning. Was scared that the weather might not hold up because it was cold and greyish in the morning, but all turned out fine.

Tianqi, Tianqi's friend Gaolong, Zaiming, Philifer and I started from Macritchie and took a 5km walk into the Treetop walk, before exiting into Thomson Road. The whole walk took us about 3hours, and the route reminded me of my NJ days when we pounded that path regularly.

The Treetop walk is not especially spectacular, but it was pretty cool to be walking 25m above ground, and the windy morning makes for a comfortable walk across the suspension bridge. Could not see all the birds, plants, and moths touted on the signboards though. And the flight of staircase after exiting the bridge is super long, haha!

Lunch was at Bishan, treated Tianqi to the famous chicken rice at the Kim San Leng kopitiam before coming home to sleep. Haha.
