4 km walk

in order to prepare for the upcoming terry fox run where i'll be walking for 4 km, i decided to spend some more time with my folks today...we actually decided to go do the hiking thing today, minus the mountain bikes, but then it started drizzling once they picked me up. so we decided to head eastwards, in search of drier ground (don't ask me why...ask the driver...aka the ntu professor).

along the way, we passed by some big blue and yellow coloured tents on the junction of beach road and rochor road...

i actually had a proposal from winnie...she said that she'd go with me if i'd buy and pay for the tickets...wow. how irresistibly irresistible. i ain't desperate yet hor!!!

btw, does anyone wanna watch cirque du soleil with me??? pleeeeeeaaaaassssse??? haha. no lah...really...i'm not desperate. (pretty please?)

anyway, we ended up where i was two days earlier...marina promenade.


mom & dad 1

my dad, once again, wanted to jog...but this time, cuz my mom just came back from the states a few days ago (so she was still a bit jet lagged and all), i had the perfect lazyass excuse to walk slowly with her...

we took some pictures along the way...but the quality's not that great cuz it was so cloudy and all...yeah, i'm gonna blame it on the weather!!! =)

but we DID walk for exactly 4km (according to the markers on the roadside that is), so i should be ready and fit for next week's task. hey, walking takes effort too ok. =)

we went to 鼎泰豐 (ding tai feng) after that and had a feast. my dad has a tendency to order for 5 people (inclusive of my brother and sister...both of whom, he probably forgot, are still overseas)...so we ended having to pack back almost as much as we ordered. but good food, family bonding, well done. =)
