some updates...

I haven't posted anything for months already. Have finally decided to give you a few lines here and there and some photos to show you the highlights of the passed months. But please bear with me, I can't do everything in one single post, only as time allows. June till November is a huge gap to be filled. Anyway, this is my feeble attempt in the meanwhile:

June 06 - World Cup
We were strolling along the Main on the Sunday before the World Cup opened, hoping to catch on some World Cup heat. And we did. Here's a crazy soccer fan from SG supporting the host country. They start young, as you can see here. :)

July 06 - London: Here we come!

This is one of the most interesting months for Bryan when he was out alone with Mommy spending time together and roaming around the streets in Central London, while Daddy was cooped up in a hotel's conference room, working hard away on his mid year review. The trip began with us taking a coach out to the plane. Bryan got to see a real size airplane for the first time in his life. This is different from the aerobridge experience, where one just feels that the plane is just down the corridor.

We did some shopping, some sights (Bryan wanted to see the London Bridge and I wanted to show him the Tower of London and Tower Bridge - the better looking one among the bridges), went to some toy shops and bookshops. Nothing much, except Bryan was thrilled that everyone speaks a language he can understand, i.e. English. Shocking, even the cartoons he watched on the TV could be easily understood.

Hmmm, this IS the London Bridge? No, Mommy, this is just a road! Well, yes, if you don't go under the bridge, it just looks like a road on the surface. No, Mom... not this bridge! This is not the London Bridge. You are wrong! - This was Bryan's disappointment that London Bridge is a pretty plain bridge.

Bye-bye, Train! Bye-bye, London! See ya' again!
