Family Outing

We have wanted to organize a family outing but can’t really spare time to travel out of Singapore. Maggie kindly booked the chalet at Aloha Loyang which we had once stayed many years ago.

However, it was all fully booked for the weekend due to the one precious week of school holidays. We checked in on a Wednesday evening and noticed that it was pretty crowded already. Many families booked in earlier and were enjoying their BBQ… we couldn’t do much as we were all very tired after work so, we had an early night.

This morning, we woke up early and decided to take a stroll after our delicious breakfast. It had been such a long time since I last strolled along the beach… it reminded me of those school days where we had chalet party almost every weekends.

In the afternoon, we went marketing at Tampines after our lunch and bought all the food for our BBQ tonight. We even planned to celebrate Gen’s birthday in advance. Everyone was enjoying the marketing including the kids.

In the evening, it took us about an hour to get the fire started! Man… I used to be quite ok at setting up the fire for BBQ but guess… it has been too long since I last attended BBQs…. Anyway, we had a great time cooking our cook on charcoal! As for dessert, we had a small birthday celebration for Genevive and she was delighted to see her favorite strawberry shortcake including the two little babies.

It was certainly a great family outing though it was only a short one… mmmh… we will try to plan for the next one hopefully SOON…
