Second Part to MaiNan's Happy Post-Valentine's
cum
55th Monthsary!!


Why hello there!!

Guess ur still awaiting eagerly for the second installment to the Post-Valentine's day huh? hahah Well, wait no longer for here it comes!! It is still the same Sunday, the same place: Botanical Gardens!! As you can see, it is a fantastic looking day with coconut trees swaying 'neath the wispy clouds which decorate the velvety blue sky..

I shall show u some pics we took as we were about to skip out of the Gardens.. Truly a magnificent day i tell ya! But filled wif foreign talents to the brim!!


Here we haf me!! under a nice redup tree!! yes yes!! ini lah dia pokok yg dikatakan oleh Tok Penghulu dlm Nujum Pa' Blalang time nak carik pencuri lembu n kambing!! hahaha "ohhh.. yg redup redup tu Pohon Beringiiin... Eh kau tak nampak? Tanda nya kau nak mampos tu!!"

Hahaha still cracks me up each time i see that part.. How gullible Malays are.. hahaha Kesian kiter.. Aniwaes, it is actually a tree originatin from Venezuela!! in case u didnt know!! yes yes!! and by the way, Venezuela i heard is still a colony of the USA!! hahaha

And this is a sign which i think should be put up ALL over singapore!! hahaha it will make our nation-state a truly safe n secure one with beasts being leashed and under the supervision of their owners!!


Here we have Mai Bies once again striking a pose!! hehehe tis frame tho, encaptures the moment when she seems to be in motion wif the breeze that is swaying the leaves n trees in the foreground!! Can see?? hehehe intresting rite!! =D Macam graceful plak nyer gambar ni.. =D

Well this was taken just before we hopped onto the cab and headed for.......

DEMPSEY HILL!!!!

Guess u guys n gals didnt noe abt this treasure trove of a place!! A quick History lesson for us all.. Dempsey Hil, if u asked ur dads, Dempsey Hill was the premises of the former CMPB or Central Manpower Base where guys went for their pre-enlistment medical check up before NS!! hahaha truly a place of mem'ries!!

And indeed the buildings were like stores for armoury n ammunitions!! but with a tinge of class n a dash of interior decor plus influences from the Enlightenment & Renaissance period, Dempsey Hill has now become a place for the posh!! Indeed u shall see in the preceedin pics!!

Aniwaes, Mai Bies brought me to Ben n Jerry's for after-lunch treat!! hehehehe gerek seh!!! i felt so pampered!! and it was a never-been-before place for Mai n Nan!! The Ben n Jerry's was fantabulous i tell ya!! Lets see wad it looks like at the front!!


Nice eh?? Looks like a laid-back Western ranch!! hahaha macam nak masok dan order Gin n Tonic! hahaha And notice the swings at the side? hahaha Now THAT was a first time i saw swings for customers!! hehehehe

Truly a nice ambience for any occasion, for any company.. hehehe Well, if u notice the small hippie van guarded by the bedek cow at the right hand side? hahaha We sure took a shot wif that van!! =D

Here u have me asking the driver to shift it abit to the front so that the customers can exit from the back!! hahaha but he refused and left me all alone in the passengers' seat! haishes.. And i dunno why i stayed there in that struck pose waiting for Mai Bies to take me pic!! hahaha

Well, i wasnt the onli one whu took the opportunity!!!!


Tadaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!! Mai Bies oso!! hahahah here we see her enjoying the moment where there wasnt a driver at the helm!! i told her to make do like she was sitting on the wittle cow!! hahahah but unfortunately, the jitters got to her and we shall haf to settle wif a typical Kawaiii pic wif twist on the sides!! =D

Still kiut tho!! *pinches cheeks*


Well, we happened to get seats in the air-conditioned, pre-war building but decorated to make it seem like a tavern! hahaha it was truly a comfy place i tell ya, wif fantabulous top=class service! =D here we haf myself grinning like a cheshire cat upon receiving my order of Chocolate Cookie Dough with M&Ms topping n whipped cream plus hot fudge!! yummeh!!!


We can oso witness Mai Bies spotting the same Cheshire Cat grin upon receiving her order of Chocolate Thingy wif nuts as toppings as well as whipped cream n hot fudge too!! Hers was abit sweet and tremendously nicely decorated.. and so was mine!! hehehehe Cumer i realised that i dun reallie prefer my ice cream wif cookie dough seh.. hahaha

But thanks bie for the ice cream treat!! tee hee heee!!


Look at that.. so nice till Wittle Bies simpy cant bring herself to open her eyes when it travels down to her tummy!! hahaha

Aniwaes, further down would be our couple pic at Ben n Jerry's!! weee heee heeee!! Oh n if u go to wittle Bies' blog, it would also say this same thing im abt to say!! The guys beside us were gays u noe!! hahaha I noe its a social construct to say that they are gays based on how they dress n the way the spoke to each other and stressing every little thing with "Eewweyy.." but dats GAY..


Well, here u can see the perfect ambience which is being presented here at the ranch of Ben n Jerry's!!! There is a nice make-believe chimney wif a fireplace to go wif it.. and any performers are free to play wif the keyboard n sing a long as well!! Just beside this would be a big comfy couch fit for one to place his/her legs outstretched after finishing a meal of icecream atop waffles!! hehehe ummm!!! Sublime i tell ya!!


*artistic views please*


And the decor is fantabulous too!! just look at the pic below!! this is the chandelier which they got from sum Duke's manor in the hills of Mordor i think!! hahaha But it was truly fruity niceee!! They got these reallie comfy couches which lets our butts sink in while we relax like the Malays that we are!! hehehe

Thus, Mai n me decided to rest our butts down after the sumptuous meal and take pics befitting of MAXIM magazine.. Well, thats true on my part i thinks!! hahaha (macam paham)


*Weee wittsss*


Well, the place there was filled wif everything ice-creamy till event the dividers were icecreams!! hahaha see seee!!! I think i noe of the decor of my future home already!! hahaha will be a homely place for upbringing of the children.. Cheyyy...

Aniwaes, me n bies got a chance to encapture the happiness n joy in the air while we were still celebrating the 55th monthsary!! seee?? hahaha they are represented by the red, orange n blue swirls al around us!! hahaha


And all these by using a 6.0 megapixel camera!! truly a fantabulous revelation!! hahaha

After all these, Mai n Nan started on their way home.. Along he way, they got lost amidst the signs which showed us to various wooden shops which were selling lawn chairs n teak furnishings fit for the upper echelons of Singapore society!! hahaha


Reallie!! these stuff were like to place on the patio or swimming pools!!

Maner lah sayer ader swimming pool?

And for me, i went ahead and found the Dempsey Hill sign!! hehehe and similar o the previous pose which i struck depan the signature Botanical Gardens gates... I struck this post as well!! To me, it is like the HOLLYWOOD Sign.. Dunno why oso!


Hahahaha

Aniwaes, i feel reallie hapy to haf gone on yet another intresting never-b4-gone-to place in Singapore wif Wittle Mai Bies!! She reallie has this niche of organising the best outings!!

Hehehe

Thus, as we walked towards the bustop in the dimming sunset.. hand in hand.. we couldnt help but reflect the past 55months and perhaps thinking where we'd be in the next 55 months?


Tee heee heeee...

For us to know and for u to find out..

Till the next time!!

Chalobete!!!

~Nan
