Gold Coast, Australia

It is our tenth year wedding anniversary and we had been thinking about going for a long holiday. But decision is never easy when you have a young child. The United States? Europe? Asia? We debated for a long time and we had actually decided to postpone this trip to next year when we're more free and we could save more money for it.

And then I saw some Scoot airline promotions to Gold Coast. It's been many years since I last visited Australia and I was suddenly missing the place a lot. We quickly decided that this would be our holiday as it is great place for families and kids. So we did just one month later.

Beaches, theme parks, shopping, zoo, strawberry fields, country roads with fantastic view, farms, and small towns. It was definitely one of the best holidays we've been on. We love Gold Coast.

The little explorer is back!

I haven't been bringing Angel to night stroll for a long time now. Partly because my mum-in-law now brings her to the playground after school, and asks me not to bring her out at night. Partly because I have been busy and could not make it back home early. Also because of the recent one-month Chinese Hungry Ghost Festival, mum-in-law just doesn't allow me to bring Angel out at night.

I was beginning to miss the times we explored the parks at night together. So tonight, I pushed my bicycle out ask Angel if she wanted to go out, she said YES!

I helped her don her red helmet and off we went. We walked, we hopped, we ran all around Sengkang Floating Wetlands. We picked flowers, we tried on various outdoor gym equipments, we climbed monkey bars, we did all the things that we used to do.

Angel is still her active and curious self, only this time she seems to understand more of the things I say, and she's way more talkative than before.

What a lovely night.
