Had a quiet Christmas
I thought it would be fun, to go back to Melaka to see the lights at Portugis Settlement, during Christmas. I still remember last year, hubby and I sneak out and walk over to the seaside for a late night seafood snack after the kids fell asleep.The only place and time both of us could sneak out, knowing that kids will be safe with my parents around.
And this year we thought of doing the same too……..
Water fountain for kids at Splash Park, The Mines Shopping Center
But don’t know what’s with our girl, she decided last minute that we should stay here and not travel! She kept on saying NO although we asked her many many times on Christmas Eve. Well, I always things happen for a reason, and we stayed at home. It was suppose to be a joyous occasion, but because we do not have any plan, I feel very bored and lonely.
To “feel” Christmas, I thought of dinning the western way for dinner during Christmas Eve. Unfortunately my favourite restaurant was closed and we went for Chinese Steamboat instead! What an incomplete feeling although we do not celebrate Christmas…
Mr Bean’s Christmas Performance at The Mines Shopping Mall
Lazy to travel far out on Christmas Day, we brought the kids to The Mines Shopping Mall to see Mr Bean’s Performance. Quite a good one, and not too crowded there.
In fact, this mall has improved so much. They even have a roof top Splash Water Park now for the kids to play and entrance is FOC (see pictures above). Not bad eh?
Am surely looking forward to go there again another time….
Our Christmas also VERY quiet, nothing special…but I did have a gathering on the 26th night. Will post on that in my blog soon.
We did not go back to malacca too this year. I remembered getting caught in the jam leading to the Portugese settlement for two hours when ethan was ONE. It scared the heck out of us that we never went back ever! *to the portugese settlement i mean…*
Wow I haven’t been to Mines for a long time, wonder has it change much??
What most important in this festive season is the family get together and the kids were having fun!^-^
Nice outing!

The Splash Park, a great plc for another gathering?
Didn’t know Mines has a splash park, FOC somemore. It’s been ages since I last went there.
Hey, having Western dinner for Xmas eve is not a good idea leh. Most the Western restaurants will only have the expensive set dinner that night.
Mr Bean = our favourite cartoon.
Love the splash park….hope to bring the kids there one of the Sunday.
