Sun’s Out, Kids’ Out – Go Karting at Kartright Speedway
My daughter ‘drove’ me around today. Round and round. She was steering the Go Kart and negotiating the bends, avoiding the kerbs and other cars with me, seated by her side controlling the accelerator and brakes. I had not expected it but thanks to Kartright Speedway, Dana had her first taste of driving a Go Kart and she absolutely LOVED it. Apart from the Skyline Luge@Sentosa, Go Karting now ranks highly on one of our favourite parent and child bonding activities! Our 1st Daddy and Child Go … [Read more...]

Street Art of Singapore @ Everton Road
Take a stroll down memory lane...at Everton Road. Ever had one of those rare ‘Hmmm…I wonder what shall we do today' days? Well, today was it. Rare as it was because I decided, quite simply, to procrastinate, slow down and commemorate Teachers’ Day by experiencing the joy of spending a weekday morning with my own kids…for a change. After bringing the girl for her specialist medical appointment in the morning, we decided to take a detour to Everton Road to check out the new street arts … [Read more...]
Oh what a Night! – Singapore Night Festival 2015

Temasek Presents Jubilee at the Botanics – A Celebration in the Gardens!
Music plays a big part in any celebrations. From anthems to waltzes, fanfares to choruses, orchestral music has always accompanied national celebrations. They add to the pomp and pageantry of the occasions but most importantly, rouse the emotions of the people, uniting them in one spirit. It is therefore befitting for Singapore’s 50th Jubilee that we have our very own internationally renowned orchestra - the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, pay a musical tribute 'Jubilee at the Botanics' for all … [Read more...]

Friso Family Moments – Chasing Fireworks
I always joked that during the weekdays, regardless of which day, regardless of weather, I would see my home in the same light – the dim early morning light just before I leave for my work at 6.30am and the dim evening light when I return close to night fall. That, sadly, is also sometimes how our children see us, figuratively and literally (they see us briefly when they wake and before they turn in to bed, sometimes even after). As working parents, our time are consumed … [Read more...]
