Taiwan - Day 2

Our first stop of the day was to Yeliu Scenic Area to see geological rock formations. I spent some time looking for sea shells as well as tried to spot funny-shaped rocks. I think I saw a dinosaur, a snake, a leopard and an elephant's nose.  

For lunch, we went to a hillside village called Chiufen. I must have been a very good girl today, because Mummy broke her own rule about not ever buying me lollipops and got me a malt candy stick. She also bought me a packet of chewing gums, haha. 

Taiwan - Day 1

Daddy, Mummy and I woke up very early this morning as we had to reach the airport by 5.30 am. I was very excited, because we were going on a holiday to Taiwan! As part of the tour, we would be going to Taipei, Hualien, Taitung, Kaohsiung, Tainan, Nantou, Taichung and Hsinchu.

We arrived in Taipei in the afternoon, where our first stop was to Tamshui Old Street. There was a man selling bubble guns there, and I had great fun playing with the giant bubbles: 

Our next stop was to Shihlin Night Market for dinner and some shopping.

I had a lot of fun at one of the fish stalls, where I had the chance to catch fishes with a net.   

We won!

My friends and I have been practising very hard for a pre-school dance competition organised by NEA. After making it through the qualifying rounds, we performed during the finals today. I was dressed as an Aedes mosquito and was so excited about it that I persuaded Daddy and Mummy to take leave from work to watch me perform.

Here I am dancing with my other mosquito friends. Please don't leave stagnant water around, so that mosquitoes cannot breed and bite little babies like me. 

There were 8 other pre-schools that also made it through to the final round today. But the judges must have liked us very much, because we won the first prize. Yay!

Graduation

Daddy and Mummy enrolled me in Kinderland when I was only 18 months old. This is an old photo of me, wearing a t-shirt and a pair of shorts that were too big for me.  

5 years later, I'm still wearing the same set of t-shirt and shorts, but they fit me better now =)

And today, after growing up and spending many happy times in Kinderland, I am graduating and moving on to primary school next year. 

 

Thank you to all my teachers who have taken good care of me all these years. From my principal Ms Susan to my K2 teachers Ms Shikin and my favourite Hong lao shi, as well as all the other teachers that have taught me, thank you! 

Legoland

When Ah Ma found out that her office was organising a family day outing to Legoland, she asked if Daddy, Mummy and I wanted to go with them. I eagerly agreed as I hadn't been to Legoland before. So we got up bright and early this morning to catch the coach to Legoland.

We took photos with the many Lego people and animals that were around: 

We got to watch a 4D Lego adventure show where we needed to wear special spectacles: 

I also hopped on a Lego train that went round in little circles: 

But the best parts of Legoland were definitely the roller coasters. I really enjoy the fast turns, and find it really funny when Mummy screams out loud, hah! 

Top hat

Daddy bought Mummy a pair of earrings today. I liked the jewellery bag very much so Mummy gave it to me as a hat. So funky! 

Cookie

I had a sudden urge to eat at Subway for dinner today. I really like the cookies there, yummy!

Zoo

We went to the zoo again this morning. Do I look cool in Daddy's sunglasses? 

Although we have been to the zoo many times already, today was the first time that we saw the monkeys being fed.

I also had fun playing in the UV section of the gift shop. Can you see me? 

Rock

This morning when we were walking to the car park, I noticed a little boy sitting on top of the large rock near my house. Once the boy got down, I eagerly scampered up onto the rock: 

Children's Day outing

Mummy took leave today to bring me out for a Children's Day outing organised by her office colleagues. Here are my friends and I, waiting eagerly to board the bus: 

Our first stop was at the Yakult factory. We watched a video about how the good bacteria in Yakult can make us strong. 

Our next stop was to a mushroom farm, where we saw how mushrooms are grown in Singapore.
