Last Saturday

Finally caught up on my blog entries.
Sat was greeeat.

Lao gong brought me shopping after tuition.
Met Cynthia, Yun n Jingfang for dinner. We had
Sake sushi @ PlazaSing,
Walked to Rochor Road for the Rochor Road beancurd
Walked to the new Cathay building for toilet break and shopping
Took a train to Cityhall to walk around the Esplanade.

As usual, when we bring Yun n Jingfang out, they don't get their day's worth of fun unless we bring them out till 2am standard.
From Esplanade we walked to Fullerton and we liked the toilet so much we took a photo there.




Then we walked back to Esplande and.....ate again! The oysters in the oyster omelete were so fresh and big. Then I have another taxi story again.

While we were waiting for the nightrider, as our common practice when we go out with the young ones on Sats, I saw a Sonata parked at the side of the road. Because I was already so tired and we had to wake up early for church the next morning, i wondered whether that was a sign from God to take a cab rather than the bus.

By the time I shared that with lao gong, the cab had already left so we agreed that whichever comes first, cab or bus, we would take it (as a sign). And it was either Sonata or bus. No other types of cabs. Many Sonatas came but instead of driving towards us, it turned in toward the taxi stand nearby cos there were zig zag lines at the bus stop we were waiting at.

Many buses came but none was the one we were waiting for. After missing like 4 Sonatas, I thought maybe I had "missed cue" from God. Maybe He didn't tell us to take cab.

Finally He answered as to why we didn't get the Sonatas. A space cab came along our way and instead of driving into the taxi stand like all the other cabs, it drove toward us into the lane beside the bus lane away from the zig zag lines. I was flabbergasted. God is really a God who blesses abundantly and gives us more than what we ask for!

The space cab was really spacious and luxurious. It's like a MPV and the airconditioning was from the roof so no matter where u sit, you wouldn't feel suffocated. And the best part is the mileage is the same except that the initial fare was 30cents more than normal cabs. Wow!
