Singapore
Everything happens very fast, we booked the air tickets mid of the week and are flying off to Singapore tomorrow. Will reach Singapore on Sunday. How exciting, not sure if I can sleep tonight. Hope to catch up with friends and families. Do call me at my Singapore home number (same as usual) or drop me an email.

Woburn Safari
After my earlier post, we manage to the Safari today!! Didn't really know what to expect but it was definitely an eye opener and a fun day out. Worth to go, driving and seeing all the animals in the comfort of your own car!! Of course lah, me not the driver what, surely comfy....
First stop, the elephant.
Separate enclosure to visit the tiger (seems like Jurassic Park!). The front gate will only open when the back gate closes....
We had never seen a tiger cross the the road, so must take picture!!.
Seems like we are the one in the cage (our car) and the animals are the one roaming freely (within the enclosure). Who's look at who??
Think our car too dirty, should be able to deter the bear from getting close.
Closest we can get to the bear!
This time, bear crossing the road!
Although we are in the car, we did feel scare when the animals are too close! Especially when it's a lion!
So how to go forward when the lion block the road!
Monkey on the car after Sam kept tapping on the car window.
After the enclosure/ drive through zone, we had a walk around the Monkey Business, Penguin World, etc.
Squirrel Monkey. Beware of your pocket if you are near it, cos the first thing it does when it jumped onto you is to unzip your pocket. Very cheeky!
You can only see penguin through a glass window in Singapore but because it's so cold here, you can see the penguins up close!
Lastly, Sam and me with the wallaby.

Mee Goreng
We found that one of the Chinese shop in Cambridge was selling Prima Taste products, not a wide selection but this one (Mee Goreng) was in stock which we had not tried before, so we bought a pack to try.
At £2.08 a pack, not very cheap but cheaper then buying it in Singapore and then sending it over.
So how was it?? I don't really like it, cos it don't taste very authentic and the sauce seems to be too sticky. Wouldn't buy it again.
