Pink Saturday - Happy Valentine

Been a long time since I join Pink Saturday cause I dont have much pink photos. But few days ago, I visited the Sentosa Flower as part of the Chinese New Year celebration, there were so many pink flowers so I decided to join this week's Pink Saturday.

I saw this cute rabbit couple decoration with a valentine theme. So lovely and beautiful. Many couples in love would posed with the rabbits and took photos with them.


Here wishing a very Happy Valentine Day to all those who celebrate the occasion.

Skywatch Friday - Singapore River Hongbao 2011 - God Of Fortune

The favourite part of the Singapore River Hongbao 2011 must be the God Of Fortune. Everyone hoping and praying that the God of Fortune will bless them with good fortune and good wealth in the Year of the Rabbit.

It is real huge and tall.

So many people at the foot of the God of Fortune trying to catch hold of some lucky numbers. At certain interval, the God of Fortune will spray some gold confetti and lucky numbers (from 0 to 9). You can see many people turning their umbrella upside down and trying to catch these numbers. It is quite funny looking at the video that the people can move from right to left.

After getting these numbers, they will bet on four numbers and hope to win them in the lottery. The four numbers lottery is known as four digit lottery and you must bet a lot of win a lot. If you bet $1 the winnings for top prize is lesser, I think is $1000 or so. I cannot remember how much that is cause I dont buy any 4D lottery.

Singapore River Hongbao 2011

Singapore River Hongbao is a yearly event to welcome the new Chinese New Year. Without fail, almost every year, hubby and me will visit the event. This year, we dont get to see many lanterns but the performance make up for it.

Ooooo, I wish I could have a gold coin as big as this...lol.

I dont see the yearly horoscope anymore. What a disappointment!

This year there are more than one million people who visit the event.

Chinese New Year 2011 - Year of the Rabbits

This being the Year of the Rabbit, of course, there are lots of rabbits mascots at the Singapore River Hong Bao.

So we got to eat more carrots in the Year of the rabbits.

Singapore River Hongbao 2011

Last Saturday night, hubby and me visited the Singapore River Hongbao at The Float in Marina.

It seems like a yearly affair for us to visit the event.

We saw our Prime Minister at the event too. Just like everyone, I took a video of him hahaha.

The big head dolls are so cute, they are performers from Taiwan.

Another video of the prime minister, I was not actually following him, was taking photos of others, when hubby told me prime minister is behind me, so I just turned around and took a video of him.

Message to prime minister, Budget Day is coming, hope to hear good news. :) My wish is to make housing more affordable for first timers. Property prices have gone crazy due to investors. In Singapore, not surprising if you heard from friends they own more than one property, more than one handphone, more than one car, etc. but not me I am using a pass me down handphone from my son...lol. (hey son's old phone still working since son is upgrading to Iphone.)
