As the reservation of our table lasted till 9:30pm, we had to leave the place for another (Come on, the night was still young!~) We settled for Balaclava, which was nearby. Had Long Island Tea, with courtesy from Veggie Girl, who had won a sum of money in Toto Hongbao : ) Had a great time gossiping and snapping pictures : ) By the time I reached home, I was as dead as a log and I fell into deep slumber the moment my wet head touched the toasty pillow...ZzzZzzzZzzz...

| Loof & Balaclava |
Woke up at 11am this morning (Thanks to King Kong who woke me up >: ( ) He mentioned that he had finished his exams and would be waiting at my void deck. Did a quick washing up and went to meet him (Had wanted to bathe Boyboy - it had been a week and he smell : ( ) Took a bus to Chinatown to have dim sum for lunch. After that, we strolled to the National Museum - Bought tickets to the Louvre exhibition. Was quite disappointed by its shallowness; Initially, I thought there might be extensive historical background about the various Greek figures, like Anthena, Eros and Ares (A waste of money : /) We walked out of the exhibition hall to another gallery, which was about our local cuisine like char kway tiao and chicken rice (I guess we prefer the latter as we could better relate to it)
After enhancing our arty farty exposure, we proceeded to the Waterloo temple to make some offerings. As I was feeling very dehydrated, I suggested going to the bubble tea hut at Bugis Junction (At that point of time, I could feel my legs breaking) and after sipping the cool and sweet syrup with carbohydrate-laden tapioca starch, we walked to Lau Pa Sat to have dinner. Had beef satay, sambal stingray, chili kangkong, blanched gong gong and cockles (Wow, I love the bloody cockles, but not for long - they made my skin itch)
Had wanted to take the bus to the Flyer, but as we were too full, we felt that it would be better to burn the calories by walking (not again!) By the time we reached the place, we were exhausted and it didn't help that we had to queue for about 45 minutes just to get into the capsule. The ride enabled us to have a good bird's eye view of Singapore, but it was not worth the money, which I rather put into good use! Feeling exhausted by the walking marathon, we took Bus 51 home.....
