NDP Preview 2008

We had a wonderful surprise today. YeePo managed to obtain 3 extra tickets for the NDP Preview.

Since it's a National Day celebration, we decided to let you wear the NDP outfit that AhMa bought for you. Cute.

We parked at Suntec and walked to Marina. We reached there at about 530pm, the pre-parade activites were already ending and the actual parade were about to start. We 'warmed up' by doing the "human wave".

The parade started with the usual song and dance routines from the different schools & associations, etc. We had parachuters, speedboats, military band, the traditional march pass from the uniform groups, the large Singapore flag, the Black Knights (I think one of the pilots is Zoe Tay's hubby... anyone can confirm?).

The night parade was full of vibrant colours, too bad most of the photos were blurred as the photographer complained that his arms were tired. (Time to get a tripod, darling.... or else, change photographer).

Baby G seemed like he really enjoyed himself. Not only did he loved the aerial display of the Black Knights, he also liked the fireworks display, but could sense he was a bit scared cause he held on to me very tightly. He even played with one of the boys there, luckily he managed to behave himself for the entire 3hr show. He did not cry nor tried to be difficult, all in all, a very well-behaved little boy. I'm so proud of him.

When we left the place, Baby G was so tired, he slept on my shoulder while we squeezed through the crowd back to Suntec to get the car. Hafway, daddy helped me to carry him cause my arms felt so heavy.

Finally we reached home and we opened the Fun Pack and wow, there were so many things given.

It was a wonderful & enjoyable day.
