5 FEB'2011:
Today is a very exciting day. Uncle Hanadi will be driving his family and mine to "Ancol". We fetched my REAL grandfather first before proceeding. It was near to our place so it took 30min to reached. The place was pretty much like "Sentosa" in Singapore. Though it may not be as nice and grand as Sentosa, it was a fun-filled place. What you can find in there might not be found in Singapore.
First thing we did there was paddling the sea-creatures mini boat at the shallow seawaters. It was tiring and fun. In the mid-waters, Glorianne and Gabriele swopped seats, as Glory cried and wanted to sit beside me. Yes, I was favoured by them, very very much! They kept sticking to me :) , so in the end Grace sat with Gabie. My little bro was so puzzled when he saw their places were swopped. He sat with my grandpa throughout, sadly because his a BOY. haha.
Next up, We had a bumpy boat ride out to the deep seawaters. Little bro and I sat at the edge of the boat for mum to take pictures for us. We almost fell into the waters, what my bro did was hugged a metal pole of the boat, what a joke! everyone laughed non-stop, he was then teased by my little cousins for the next few hours. Headed to the seafood restaurant to have a SEAFOOD Feast, mum's treating. We went to select the seafood delights that we want to eat, after all the selection, we had crabs, fish, bamboo clams, prawns, etc. 2 tables long of dishes were placed on the tables for us to feast on. What shock us was the bill cost around SGD$80. So cheap! try it in SG see if you will get the bargain =P
After dinner, we joined the other families of my relatives which include, Uncle Hendrik, Uncle Billy's family, Uncle Freddy's family, Aunt Leny, Grandaunts, Granduncle. Total there was 4 '8-seaters cars' in the parking lots. Yes, it's a huge sized outing with FAMILY, first time in my life have I experienced this. It's sensational! ^^
We headed to the "Art Market" in "Ancol." Soon, my eyes were caught in 3 beautifully hand-made keychains. I loved keychains a lot, will get myself some when I'm overseas. Funny thing was the store keeper was out for dinner, most of the stalls does that, I wonder: Aren't they scared people steal their things? obviously there's no security cameras. Soon, the shop owner was back, Aunt Lisa bargained for me. So I got my keychains in a very cheap price. She's really good at bargaining, I bought those at half-price.
Next, we went to the ART GALLERY at the back of the "Art Market." The paintings were so AWESOME! The shades of colours and tones were painted beautifully. What makes the Artists GREAT were that they allowed us to take pictures with their lovely pieces. I had lots of shots taken. How I wished I can paint like them. ENVIOUS!
