We visited yet another very interesting place today!

I did a little research and found that we have an extremely peculiar museum in town. In fact, it is reputed to be one of its kind probably around the world and it was all thanks to Mr Mervin, the curator. :)

His interest in these Shanghai toys saw him displaying his collection in this museum.

We were so privileged because I don't think we would ever have a chance to see what we saw. All the toys and dolls on display tell a story and many of these dolls were in fact from the Chinese Revolution Period.

Our girls posing outside the Museum.

Daddy said the television set looked familiar!

The famous San Mao!

Our kiddos played with some of the exhibits. :)

Actually, so did the adults!

I asked C to pose with these huge dolls!

The children were busy looking out for clues and solving puzzles.

Pretty Mummies (and 1 Daddy) caught on film!

After a quick dinner, we headed off for some fun in the waters at Marina Barrage. Needless to say, the children had a whale of a time splashing in the water and getting all of us wet.

This is a great way to beat the heat of the Sun! :)

... till the next time!

Daddy suggested we take Grand Parents for an authentic Hainanese dinner so he scouted around and found the famous "7th Storey".

"

We tried their signature dishes like the pork chop and venison dishes and of course, their charcoal steamboat. Grand Mummy said the food was really good. :)

See our happy faces? I was glad that I was well enough to get out of the house in the evening or else, this dinner would have to be postponed again. I woke up with an aching body and cold flushes and I knew that I was unwell again. :( A trip to the doc saw him sending me back with a lot of medicine and 2 days of leave from work.

This was the view from where we sat. We even had the company of a rainbow. :)

After dinner, we walked around a bit and took in the sights but...

... we were disappointed to find the exhibition hall closed even before the stipulated closing time.
