Pink Saturday-Singapore River Hongbao 2009

My contribution for pink saturday are these pink flowers and the pink stage, photo taken during the Singapore River Hongbao 2009. These will be my last photos for the Singapore River Hongbao 2009 series of photos.

These pink flowers are not the real thing, they are artificial.

The peacockis cute and lovely and trying to just snap the peacock is difficult cause there are so many people waiting to take photo with the peacock so I ended up taking photo of the peacock and a stranger...lol

The stage is decorated and lighted with pink lights.

For more pinky participants, please visit Beverly of How Sweet The Sound.

Oh I love this photo of the sky. I was in Sentosa, when I noticed the sun hiding behind the clouds. Perfect shot. I like the rays coming out of the clouds.

A post specially for CC - A day out with Sue Oriental

Let me introduce you to my new friend, Sunbonnet Sue Oriental. My best friend in Texas, CC of Lacenribbonroses designed her specially for me. Thank you so much CC. It is the chinese new year and you dress Sue in her finest red oriental dress and I love the little basket she is carrying. Red is for good luck and especially well loved during Chinese New Year.

I am so glad that you decided to send her to Singapore and yesterday, I brought her to watch a movie directed by a local director Jack Neo. I prefer watching english movies than chinese movies but I should also support our local movie industry. So Sue Oriental has to tag along cause there's no one at home to chat with her.

Sue Oriental has a great appetite.

This is the 3rd floor of the Vivo City and the cinema has little cinemas in it. So we can watch one movie after another but of course we had to pay same price ($7.50) for each individual one. I wondered why they dont have special tickets for those who watch two movies in one day.

It is very spacious.

Another local movie starring Fann Wong and Christopher Lee. I think Sue Oriental likes Christopher Lee...lol but Alice prefers Richard Gere. :)

There is this little snack bar and Sue Oriental likes to have a mini pizza but Alice says "no" cause they are going for a herbal lunch after the movie. :) This is to replenish Sue Oriental's energy cause she has a long flight from Texas to Singapore. Next week, Sue Oriental will be visiting Sentosa with Alice.

P.S. CC, I think Sue Oriental loves Singapore so much that she decided to stay here longer than expected.

My World-Singapore River Hongbao 2009 - Chinese Dolls

I am still posting photos taken during the Singapore River Hongbao Show 2009, the event is so huge and there are so many beautiful dolls that are so cute and pretty.

This chinese doll dressed up like an Empress Dowager.
I like the centre doll, looked so pretty. She will be in my profile in the meantime.
Each doll has a legend or story behind them. It will take me many moons to tell all the stories...lol.

Just a short video to show the surrounding area near the chinese dolls.
