Dubai Museum and Global Village

We decided that since we rested the day before, we will meet our friends at the Dubai Museum and maybe take the abbra with them over to the gold souk and spice souk... before bringing them to a nice dinner at one of our fav cheap and good chinese restaurant here.. and then heading off to Global Village...

As our friends wanted to meet us at Dubai Museum and the only way I know how to get to that area is to walk there from my house... I looked up the location on google maps and then with a little bit of luck and some good effort, me and Ace took a 35 minute walk from our house to Dubai Museum.. So proud of myself! And in the process, I actually discovered there are a few small museums in the area that I have never visited before.. Ace wanted to go and I told him we will go another day with Daddy when we have got time...

Anyway, we finally went to Dubai Museum with our friends but because I have been there before, this time, instead of taking lots of photos.. I just concentrated on reading up and enjoying the exhibits:) If you want to see pics, you can go to my previous post about it.. hahahaha..

I only took photo of this because you know.. this is a pair of bones tat is found.. and they had their hands clasped together.. you know as in the famous saying, "Till death do us part"?


Anyway, after that, we walked to the Old Town area so that Annie godma can buy her scarfs and what nots from the textile souk.. one tip here.. whatever you buy here, BARGAIN! YOu ask price, they say a price, just bargain.. if it doesnt work out to your expectation, walk away... they will lower the price furthur! wahahahaha

And after that we were suppose to take the abbra across the creek to visit the the gold souk and the spice souk.. however, as it was a windy day, the waves on the creek look big and being true blue Singaporeans with concern for safety.. the gang decided that maybe we will take the air conditioned Abbra which looks bigger and is more stable..

But everyone looked tired (especially Lao Uncle and god grandma as they have been out shopping in MOE the whole morning as well) and so, we decided to just head to dinner...

While waiting for Max to pick us up, we just chilled out by the creek and boy, was it chilly:)

Anyway, after tat we made our way to Red House... This is me and max and ace's favourite- Tomato fried egg:) Our friends loved it so much we ordered a second helping!! wahahaha

Because God grandma love to eat duck, we ordered this plum sauce duck which turned out to be really nice and she said it is her favourite dish of the trip!:)

And of course, not to forget what Redhouse is famous for:) Lor tee kar:)

After that, we made our way to Global village:) hehehe.. as I have been there before and Annie complained that her camera ran out of batt, I lent her my camera lor:) hehehehe





Spongebob squarepants abaya, anyone?:P














Anyway, while we were there, we bought some tickets to take the wonderbus the next day cos they claimed that there is a 15% discount:)





Unconciously, we walked and walked till 12 midnight lor... wah.. din expect us to walk so long...
