Yea. Just another day we are leaving for Gold Coast - Australia.
With Jane and Raymond joined us this time, it will be our 2nd trip of the year after Bangkok that 6 of us travelled together.
We are flying off on 21st Nov at 9.10 pm by SIA and back to Singapore on 27th Nov.
The kids are very happy able to fly on the Singapore airline again.
These few days, we had been busy packing the needs for the 7-days trip. Everyone is excited on the trip when we started the count down about 15 days ago.
Looking forward to go the Dream world and Movie world for the exciting rides. The Tangalooma resort to feed the dolphins. The catch-a-crab cruise sounds fun too. We also have plans for the free day too.
As it is close year end, the weather at Brisbane is going hotter. But from internet findings, there had been heavy rainstorms and showers. Also the temperature went almost low of the month for the highest or lowest.
Well, let's hope it does not rain when we are there. Neither it going to be hot too. Prob a cool weather best suit us.
That's all for now. Shall update more when we are back!

Halloween
Usually on some common festive seasons, our bank will organise competitions to decorate the office e.g. Chinese New Year, National Day etc...
This year there is one for Halloween too.
The individual department will form their own team and submit for the contest.
The team next to us put on a fantastic decoration. It was like a house with the spider webs and a big spider right in the centre of the ceiling. Their phones were dressed like witches.
More impressing that they even have created a door with the signs to be aware of the spiders. Little pumpkins lit up the Halloween spirit and mood. The decoration fulfilled the theme well.
I really like the idea and the team work put up. Eventually they are the winner for this season. The team also won the National day deco too.
Christmas bells are on the way. Believe there will be another contest for the best dressed Christmas dept.
Our team is going for a brainstorm meeting today for this occassion. We shall put in our best for the decoration.
Even there is no mention of the contest yet, we hope through this to show our team efforts and to add some energy welcoming the last holiday of the year.

Raymond's birthday celebration
Yesterday, the usual 6 of us had a little birthday celebration for Raymond.
The plan was to have an afternoon movie then follow up a ride at Spore flyers and of course not missing a dinner.
But did not turn out well.
Failure # 1
In the afternoon, we watched the Thai movie - 'The Coffin'. Having high expectations, the movie turned up sucks. No meaning, boring, no storyline ... I actually fallen asleep during the show.
Failure #2
After the movie, we realised that it was raining. So our plan to go onto the Flyers was not able to materalise cos we wanted to watched the sunset. But the moody weather spoiled the plan. Everyone was upset especially Ajit who had waited for months just for this day to go onto the flyer.
Though there were upsets, the rest of the day was a smooth one.
Happy #1
We decide to have an early dinner. Suggested by Raymond, we have dinner at Kuishin Bo at Suntec City. The popularity was proven by the beeline queue before it opened at 5.30pm.
We took our seats around 5.35, then start attacking the food. There was a full spread of Japanese stuff from the raw sushi to the cooked teppanyaki chicken. The snow crab was very sweet and juicy.
We had a very satisfactory dinner and left around 9pm. Wow a long dinner about 3.5 hours.
Happy #2
Then the last event of the day - we decide to go the newly open spot - Marina Barrage. It was just opened on 31st oct 08. After a little search, we finally reached the place.
A very spacious open air area, our first spot was the beautiful and colourful water fountains. Lots of pictures were taken. Even those taken on Yuva's mobile turned out better than my digital camera.
Afterwhich, we took a walk on the spiral walkway. We had a view of the Spore flyer at the distant. The cool and breezy wind gave us a light-litted heart.
Back to the ground level, the boy starts playing with the water sprays that shoot out different colours at different time. The girl busy taking pictures of the surrounding. Joey, as usual, looking for nice spots to capture her beautiful face together with Jane.
With fun for about nearly 2 hours, we left for home after 11pm.
Though we do not have a good start, but the rest of the day was happily ended though no cake for the birthday boy!
