Ok.. time to catch up on all the pictures that I've yet to post. These date back to when my parents, aunt and family dropped by to visit us last month. Starting us off, we went to visit the Tessalar Tulip Farm. A must-see for spring.

Dutch Lady Dutch Lady... *hums tune of old-school condensed milk commercial*
Doing the winery rounds at Domaine Chandon. My cousin Eugene is a paparazzi photographer in the making. He snaps us here as we're tring to make our escape.
Later that night, we brought our guests to the greyhound races. We've been a few times ourselves but we've never taken many pictures. The guards there get touchy about people taking pix 'cos the flash can blind the greyhounds while they're racing and throw them off their pace.
My Aunt Esther and Uncle Beng Chye, checking out the
rocks apostles.
My Aunt Esther refusing to give in to gravity. Unfortunately, Shirley lost that fight, tripping on a rock whilst
walking down the mountain. That's when she twisted her ankle and had to go to the hospital.
Eugene finally gets in the picture. Here they are after all that abseiling.
A friend of mine was working at a stud farm. This is a 2 day-old foal. Born of champion race horses. It was a rare treat that we caught a glimpse into the raising of racehorses.
These were just some of the hundreds of photos that were (mostly) taken by my cousin Eugene. It was great to have my family here but I have to say that after being woken up at 7 something every morning to the roar of the juicer (my Aunt Esther reckons that the fruits are so cheap, we HAVE to have fruit juice every day), we appreciated sleeping in that next weekend :) On the bright side, we really HAVE been having juice every day, thanks to her inspiration.
