Long Weekend....

This was what we have done for the long weekend...

We went to Lye Kim Hup in Bordeaux and bought some chinese vegetables, fishballs and fishcakes and we proceeded to L'Entrecote for Lunch. Frankly speaking, I missed eating the Entrecote here but was reluctant to come as the queue was always very long. But eventually we came and this is our 3rd time.



After lunch, the waitress offered the kids a lollipop and we saw the following...

Then, we went to Ikea and left the kids with the "balls" for 45 minutes while we shopped...



After Ikea, we went to Auchan Supermarket to get some bbq food for Sunday and went home to prepare...

We woke up early to prepare the bbq for the night. Cleaned up the house and garden a bit and had one round of mahjong with Irene and Chew before the guests came. LOL ..It was a small BBQ gathering among a few families. We had a great night chit-chatting away and the kids playing together. The only regret is that I forgot to whip out my camera for some photo-taking...hehehehe

Holiday in France - Whit Monday or Pentecost Monday (also known as Monday of the Holy Spirit) is the holiday celebrated the day after Pentecost, a movable feast in the Christian calendar)



Strike A Pose, Shannon!








We went to the beach with some friends in the morning since it was a sunny day. J finally pumped up a "boat" which was passed over from his friend 2 years ago. Initially, we thought it was a small boat but in the end it was really a long boat. Anyway, we brought it to the beach and the guys and the kids had fun with it.

We didn't stay for long as the water was still too cold for the kids. We went for lunch @ McDonald's and let the kids play for another hour in the Indoor playground before all of us headed home.
