More Exploring

We explored some more of Singapore last weekend. We started our Saturday at the Singapore National Museum. They had a special exhibit on Christian Lecroix, a costume designer for stage shows and operas. Lecroix’s elaborate, over-the-top creations were fun to see and they even had an area set up for drawing. Adam and I made our own Lecroix inspired creations. Ok, so the table was meant for kids but we had fun.



Can you guess who did each? I’d like to say mine was the good one, but you can see who got the drawing talent in this relationship.

We had a wonderful dinner at Oso, an Italian restaurant, and then headed to the Singapore Flyer, the world’s largest observation wheel. It was about a 40 minute ride in the air conditioned capsules and it offered great views of the city. You can even see the lights of Indonesia across the water. Pictures

Birthday Weekend

I had an amazing birthday weekend. It kicked off with a lovely party at work and then Adam and I took off for Bintan Lagoon Resort in Indonesia. It was about an hour ferry ride to the popular weekend get away. The trip was quick and we were on the beach in no time. Pictures


We ended up making a new friend while chilling by the pool:



We mostly just relaxed by the pool, but the resort featured an activities area where after 3 rounds of three games I won the championship Foosball game. Finally an activity where I have a chance at beating Adam =). Adam also found another activity he enjoyed:




There are lot of you back home that I wish I could have celebrated my birthday with, but I'm so excited to see everyone in July!!!!

Oh and I can't wait for another upcoming trip. Adam scheduled a trip to AUSTRALIA in July for my birthday present! I am officially the luckiest girl in the world.
