Family Weekend Part Two - Settler's Cafe


Random squawk: I've stopped using Flickr.com to host my pictures. Because I have a lot of photos to host, and there is a monthly limit on Flickr that doesn't decrease when you delete previously hosted photos, and that you can only have 3 sets, I'm reverting back to photobucket. I'm not paying USD$25/year. No matter how awesome the functions I think Flickr has.

Bugger.


As they say, a picture says a thousand words. And because I have so much to say and so little time to write much, I'll let the pictures do (most of) the talking.

I just love the fact that Lazy blends right in.

We helped Shirong celebrate his birthday a day late, but it was fun.

This is our lovely lovely grandma, who singlehandedly made the entire feast for us. She's over 80 you know. I feel so guilty for not arriving earlier to help her with the cooking.

After the dinner gathering at grandma's, we set off for that night's entertainment - Settler's Cafe @ Clarke Quay.

Both Lazy and Shirong's car were faster than ZhiZhong korkor's, so the first few who reached started an Ugly Doll game first.

Everyone flips open a card at random, and whenever there are three of the same kind just SNATCH. Fun.

The rest of the group reached and we started on a Huiping reccomendation - Taboo.

Then it was some game that sounded like taboo, but had a time limit. It really was superbly fun.

Shirong and Huiping had to leave early, so we all took a group photo before they did.

Then we actually started with pictionary, but I don't really know what the heck happened here.

We tried a multitude of games that night. Even the person working there almost lost his patience with us because we keep asking for different games.

At the end of the day, I think everyone wasn't well prepared in the monetary department because when they said it was over 200 dollars, everyone frantically scrounged for cash.

It was, in all, a really, really fun day out.
