Dim Sum Heaven!

I had some problems getting into Blogger 2 days ago, so I'll try again today. Hopefully it'll work out better. Last Sunday I had time to meet up with a couple of friends from home for some great Dim Sum at Yum Cha in Chinatown. Here's a pic of Joan and Jan with Jan's new baby boy. Isn't he cute? :D



After the Dim sum, we headed off to Vivocity, the new shopping mall located opposite Sentosa. You can access it directly via Harbour Front. It's nicely done, but just 2 problems. First, we got lost in there because there only seems to be one exit, and secondly, the taxi stand is all the way across at the Harbour Pavillion building which is quite a walk away from the Vivocity exit. Otherwise, it seems cool, with a Cineplex and more shops, Starbucks, etc. Add to that walking and shopping next to the sea with Starbucks in hand and it's great. Just make sure not to choose a humid, hazy day like us, Hrhr.

I took this pic of the view of harbour cranes in the port. I thought they looked romantic in the haze. My friend Vincent - who's currently teaching at my Alma mater at Barker Road - thinks it's more a scene of post nuclear apocalypse. Frankly, if you're into nuclear fallout and view it as poetic justice of man's endless quest for power, then yes, it is romantic as you and your beloved view it with your highly toxic irridiated skin. Anyone recall the ghouls from Fallout 2?

Shaky picture, but try holding it still without a stand for exposure...
