Come Together @ Teck Ghee

Last year we attended the event and both Anthea and Anders had great fun at the games booth, so I know this year we must do it again.

This morning we woke up around 9.30am and had a simple breakfast and then headed off for the event at the open field nearby.

The Guest of Honor was our PM – Mr. Lee Hsien Loong and we saw him walking around the game stalls when we reached the venue.

We saw many games booth and I heard there were 20 stalls of games. Anthea and Anders went around with their game coupon and tried their hands at the different stalls.

This year they don’t have the children motor bikes thing but instead the organizer brought in the real racers and there was a mini “F1 race course” for the F1 enthusiasts. As both Anthea and Anders were underage for the racing, we can only watch from the track side.

However, they do have those arcades racing game and Anders had fun riding on one of them.

This year, the Underwater World from Sentosa was also at the event to promote their admission ticket. Along with them, they brought a seal and we took a photo with the seal. The children had the chance to come up close with the seal and even touch the seal. It was chargeable for the photo taking but it was worth it since we need not go all the way to Sentosa..haha.

After we had used up all our game stall tickets, we went for the On-the-spot coloring competition. This event was organized by Anthea’s school and her form teacher was also there manning the station. Anders took part in the contest but due to some unforeseen situation, we didn’t complete the coloring thing…hee. : P

After all the morning fun, it was time for lunch and we packed our lunch home and had a nice meal.

The children had their usual afternoon nap and then in the evening, we went to my parent’s place for dinner again. Yes, Anthea had requested to eat there because she wanted to see Anne again…: )
