Japanese conversation & Nature Walk

After the ferry ride to the southern islands, we rested and had some drinks at the ferry terminal. Although I don't understand what BB and Fusako-san were yakking away in Japanese, it was interesting to see their facial expressions, hear their laughter when they realised they have caught the same Jap drama series, manga, etc. They also discussed the culture in Singapore and Japan. I can understand the conversation, thanks to BB the interpreter :)

We were well rested and could proceed for the nature walk.

I think the dragon looks cool!

BB and Fusako-san were game for the walk too and as it was already after 6pm, the mosquitoes were crazy about us.

We had dinner @ Crystal Jade @ Ngee Ann City and had xiao long bao, drunken chicken, more xiao long bao in soup, another type of pork dumpling, cabbage, fried hand slice noodle with beef, fried rice. It was a hearty meal and we were happy to see Fusako enjoying the food. We went to the event house and Fusako and I bought some mini mooncakes (custard and lotus paste versions) from The Peninisula Hong Kong.

It was a long and rather tiring Sunday but I think all of us enjoyed the company, food and the experiences :)
