we took the cable car

yesterday, decided to bring the kids to harbour front. actually it is becos SAFE opened a new branch there and we wanted to check out the price of the plasma tv.

went there for lunch, (cannot mention the name of the restaurant, otherwise i may be sued) but food was so so. not exactly nice, it will be my last time there. but while eating, M&M saw the cable car and was looking at it.

then we went walking ard, went to SAFE, may be thinking of buying an iPod Mini...

then when we are going back home, marcus was very sad and we knew he wanted something (oh yah, btw, after lunch, he brought us to the shop becos he saw thomas the train story book, so in the end, we ended up leaving the shop, marcus: thomas activity pack, mabel: big coloring book) ok, back to the previous sentence.... so i asked him what he wanted, he pointed upwards to the cable car, that's it, he wanted to take a ride in the cable car.

so we decided to drive up to mount faber and take one round of the cable car. needless to say, they were very happy. (i should learn to upload some pictures here, took a pic of them while we were in the cable car) they were not frightened... and even wanted the cable car to go faster.

the cable car was very crowded with tourists on a sunday... good business, that's good, i think we were the only Singaporeans there. also when i took the cable car, i was recollecting my memories of the cable car ride in Cairns, australia, wat do they call it? gondola ride? yah, it was like passing over the top of forests, rivers... and the weather was cooling, unlike the cable car ride, which was a little bit hot.

and after we alight from the cable car, marcus said, 'tomorrow, we come to cable car again.' i was juz telling my hubby that he better dun make this cable ride thingy a weekly affair. but i'm happy that they are happy.
