Barbie as The Island Princess Live Show & Sayonara.

Anthea has been a BIG Fan of Barbie's shows and this resulted to me being a mommy's fan. We have been to a few of Barbie Live Shows - Pegasus (Year 2005) & 12 Dancing Princesses (Year 2006).

This year, without fail, Barbie is coming as the Island Pricess. We have watched the VCD many times and again i must say, this musical was another hit with the Aces Family.

When i saw the promotion mailer from Robinson indicating on the Live Show, i told myself - we must go & watch..haha.

On Sat, 1 Dec, the Live Show starts and it is at the Raffles City Shopping Mall. Since it's a Saturday, how can we not go for it. So after breakfast, around 11 am, we (anthea, anders & myself) took the MRT to City. Adrian was helping me with the housework and decided to join us after. We decided to take the MRT because i wanted to let the children go on MRT, as they always request to take MRT.

We reached Raffles City Shopping Mall around 11.30 am and went to the Atrium to check out on the Q status. From Experienced, i know to get a good view, normally will need to Q an hour before the show. Luckily, there were no one Q-ing yet, so we walk around the Atrium. Anthea and Anders were very excited when they see all the Island Princess toys and dresses, espcially Anthea.

At 12 noon, we saw the Barbie crew start putting up notices on the Live Show and Anthea said : "mommy, let's go & Q". Wow..she is even more "kan-cheong" than anyone else. So we went to Q and got Q No. 8 - 10...hee. This show how "ks" we are..haha.

The show started on time at 1pm and the children enjoyed the 1/2 hour magical live show. I was impressed by the whole setup and also the crew. The singers are really very good. Only thing, there was a slight hiccups, some of the mikes were not working at the start, so we could not hear the first few songs clearly. Regardless of the small hiccups, the crew still put up their best performances. Well DONE !





In the evening, we went to the airport for dinner. My parents in laws are going for a 7 Days Hokkaido Tour with Tradewinds.


After dinner, we took the skytrain to Terminal 3 to take a new look at the home to A380. Wow...our Terminal 3 is really big. As it was not fully opened yet, so we only took a quick peek at the departure hall.


Then we went back to Terminal 2 to do the check in for my in law's departure flights on SQ. The group counter was crowded with school holiday tourist. Many are in family with children. Looking at them, i told adrian, in 2 years time, we will also need to follow school holiday crowd when anthea starts her primary school..hee.


Around 10 pm, my in laws went in to the boarding gates to wait for their departure flight. Aces family wishes them a Happy vacation in Japan and till we see them next Friday, it is now "Sayonara..."
