Happy Birthday Dear!

Check in time was at 3pm and we reached Festive Hotel early, so we left our bags with concierge and went off to enjoy ourselves.

First stop was to Butterfly park where we (AN & I) got to feed the birds. The birds must have been well fed because they weren't hungry. Took them a while before they would come take the honey water (I assume it was) from my hands.

And then we went into the butterfly area. AN was terrified of the butterflies!! So much for "I want to see butterflies!" She was shunning the butterflies all the time we were inside. And this girly girl tried to to avoid touching the tiny branches that sticking out. She did get used to the place after a while and started to observe the butterflies. We got to discuss a little about the many beautiful on the different breeds.

After the 'live' butterfly area, we came to the enclosed area where we saw samples of the different types of butterflies, similar to what we saw in Desert Museum. They are really beautiful creature. Some are shimmery, some are matte. Regardless of what colours they are, all the colours look good with each other. It's like a MASSIVE SCALE COLOUR WHEEL all spread out for us to choose matching/complimentary/harmonious colours to go with each other.

And we saw more insects. Other than AN, we all got to touch and hold the stick insect and leaf insect. We have seen the stick insect many times at the insect enclosures in zoos but never got to hold them. And this is my first encounter with the leaf insect.

As usual, AN the girly girl was nowhere near us when the stick insect and leaf insect were out of their 'habitat'. ER on the other hand (being young and fearless), couldn't wait to hold them. He won't be holding them. He would be more likely squishing them to death. So, the up close and personal experience had to be limited to them hanging from his clothes.







The rest of the day was free and easy. ER fell asleep and I stayed with him in the hotel while Mr Liow and AN went for a swim.

We went to watch Song of the Sea (did I get it right?), the once-upon-a-time-FOC laser show that cost $10 per ticket now. It was worth the money spent. Good effects.

Sorry dear, I forgot the cake. I do hope you enjoyed your day though.

I love you!
