Upside Down House, Malacca.

06 August 2016 (Sat):

It was a real last min decision to come to Malacca. A 2 days and 1 night trip bought us to this place we just found out existed. Even our friends in Malacca did not know of this place. Hello?!!!

Upside Down House. How you do it? Take a normal picture. The background is all upside down actually. After you take a pic, rotate your pic and you will have an upside down pic.

There are staff around to guide you on how you should pose, where to stand and which angle you should take the photo from.

Come and have fun!

I love this photo!

A hilarious shot of Daddy and Uncle Kueh. Seems like a tornado came and they are holding on for dear life...on the comical side.

Do we looked like we are stepping on the kids?

Family Photo

Racial Harmony Day 2016

21 July 2016 (Thursday):

YPS  had their Racial Harmony Day this morning and the kids wore their ethic costumes to school.

It seems they also wore the same for the CNY celebrations in school. Haha.

Happy 9th Birthday, Rachel

Happy 9th Birthday to my baby, Rachel.

Wedding of Lay Weng & Ming Yao

18 Jun 2016 (Sat):

There is a grand occasion for the Seah family today. Wedding of Lay Weng and Ming Yao.

Lay Weng is Lionel's and Rachel's 姑姑 (auntie), hubby's cousin.

A pic with some of the cousins ( our nieces and nephews) though not all. There should be a total of 13 plus 1 on the way.

Lionel has been tasked the role of opening the bridal car door.

Isnt the bride beautiful?

UK - London Day 4

12 May 2016 (Thurs):

Our 2nd last day in London.

We continued with the various sights such as Tower Bridge, Tower of London, saw London Bridge, Millennium Bridge, Platform 9 and 3/4 at King's Cross Station, St Paul's Cathedral, Borough Market, etc.

And more shopping along the way - clothes, souvenirs, foodstuff, etc.

Harry Potter's platform 9 and 3/4 for the Hogwarts Express. When we arrived at King's Cross station, we saw only platforms 1 - 6. Then where is 7 - 10? Much less to say 9 and 3/4???

Something made me to walk to the other end of the station and we found platform 9 and 3/4. It was only a drawing on the wall... lol. But there were many people queuing just to have their photos taken by professionals where they will give you props - wands, cloaks and will teach you how to jump and face the camera.

You can buy your photos for a fee. 

This is easily mistaken for London Bridge. Take note: this is the Tower Bridge, not London Bridge.

St Paul's Cathedral.

We caught a musical performance - The Lion King. It was a very good performance. If you are going to London, do not forget to watch one of the many musical performances there. Depending on the month of the year, there will be many different performances throughout.

Note: It is definitely cheaper to watch in London than in Singapore, although you pay in UK Pounds.

And with this, we end our trip in London. We will be leaving for Singapore tomorrow. It has been a great experience. Thank you, London for the wonderful memories! We hope to come back again soon!

UK - London Day 3

11 May 2016 (Wed):

It was another full day tour to Windsor Castle (45 mins journey from London City), Roman Bath - another about 1 hour from Windsor Castle and Stonehenge, about 2 hours journey.

We were picked up from our hotel and transferred to Victoria Station where we board our coach. Victoria station was huge and one would be lost if not for the clear, given instructions from the guide.

Windsor Castle.

Roman Bath

Stonehenge.

UK - London Day 2

10 May 2016 (Tues):

We woke up to a rainy morning. We have made a booking for a walking tour to Buckingham Palace and the rain sort of spoil our mood. We had hoped for a good sunny day.

Nevertheless, we proceeded for breakfast and bought our Oyster Card - similar to our EZ Link card. This card can be used for travel on the underground, public buses and sightseeing buses.

We met the guide for the Buckingham Palace and we saw the parade. It was hard to take photos in the rain. With an umbrella in one hand which we borrowed from the hotel and the camera in the other, I had to carelessly fidget with photos and video to be taken at the same time. Its either you risk getting yourself and the camera wet by putting down the umbrella and get a good take or u get blurred and not-so-clear photos with only 1 hand.

We also visited other sights such as Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Trafalgar Square, etc.

And guess who we saw?

Scrumptious breakfast at the hotel.

Oyster Card for travel.

London Sights.

Prince Charles and Princess Camelia.

UK - London Day 1

09 May 2016 (Tues):

On the last day, we took a 1.5 hours ferry from Calais, sailed across the English Channel and arrived into Dover. Another 2 hours drive should take you to the London Reception Centre or to the Hilton Kensington Hotel if you are extending your trip.

Hey! We are in London. We will be extending in London for another 3 nights where we will see Harry Potter's 9 and 3/4 platform at Hogwarts Express... Lion King Musical, Windsor Castle, Roman Bath, Stonehenge, Tower Bridge, Oxford Circus, Marble Arch, Harrods, Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and many many more.

Oh... for a thought... here's some extras. FOOD! On the top of everyone's list... but i put it at the bottom..haha.

Breakfasts were mainly served Continental Style – bread, croissants, juice, yogurts, sausages, cereals, cheese and seasonal fruits.

You can get a variety of different cuisines throughout Europe. From simple baguette (French loaf) to sumptuous steak, seafood and veal dishes. Pizzas and pastas were readily available too.

Europe - France, Paris Day 2

08 May 2016 (Sun):

City Sights of Paris – Eiffel Tower, Are de Triomphe, Versailles Palace, etc.

Eiffel Tower Illuminations – the sparkles and glitters lighted up only at 10pm when were there. We were lucky to watch it. The Travel Director knows the timing. 

Europe - France, Paris Day 1

07 May 2016 (Sat):

The last city we visited. Paris, France.

A visit to Paris without watching the Moulin Rouge performance is equivalent to not visiting Paris at all. Spectacular show!

Paris – Renaissance La Defense.

The Renaissance La Defense, though located in the commercial area of Paris, were conveniently located. There was a shopping mall, just a 2 mins walk from across the hotel. We stayed here for the last 2 nights of our trip.
