K Box - Karaoke

Today is Father's Day. Here wishing all dads around the world a very Happy Father's Day. Well my siblings and myself and our families celebrate father's day at K box singing karaoke. The teenagers suggested this outing to celebrate father's day for our husbands and my brother (their dads).

But I guess the teenagers (my nieces and sons are hogging the microphone instead of us....lol). The next time only the adults will go K box, not fair we only sing a few songs...hahaha.





The karaoke package comes with meals. I have more photos of the food at K box, you can view them in my food blog. For more information on the prices, you can view their website.

This is all the mess we left after all the singing and eating and drinking.

We then had a sumptuous seafood dinner at a local restaurant. We enjoyed outselves so much and we looked forward to the next gathering.

Skywatch-The Singapore Flyer

This is not the wheels of a bicycle. If you looked closely at the top right corner, you could see the capsule of The Singapore Flyer. Yes, it is part of The Singapore Flyer, those metal frames that hold all those tiny capsules. (Tiny from the ground view). The capsules are air conditioned.



You could learn more about the Singapore Flyer from my previous post.

Closer look at the capsules.



Thanks to Tom for hosting Sky Watch. For other sky watchers, you can go to Tom's website.

Street Scene-Business Financial District

This is a street scene taken on a lazy weekend afternoon. You would see more vehicles during the morning and evening weekday rush hours. In the background are tall buildings in the Raffles Place and Business Financial District.

The news that just came in, you might like to read:

Singapore has come out tops in Asia for having the highest quality of living, according to an annual survey by consulting firm Mercer.

The study was based on a number of factors including the political and social environment, medical and health considerations, public services and transportation, and housing.

Globally, Singapore is ranked 32, after climbing two spots from last year.

In Asia, Tokyo, Yokohama, Kobe and Osaka are ranked just behind Singapore.
