Mall of Asia

Wednesday, 19th October 2011

Another nice sleep in this morning, but only until 7.00am today. Anyway, it was too exciting to stay in bed today as we were going shopping at the Mall of Asia. A shopper's nivarna - a husband's nightmare. Apparently the Mall of Asia is the biggest shopping mall in Asia, so of course we had to go and visit it to be able to say "been there, done that".

When we arrived there, guess what we found? Shops, shops, and more shops – it is very big, and the prices are very big. Lunch was yummy at the Pizza Hut restaurant, quite fancy in fact. The suvenir shop was large and interesting to look through.

Only one picture - too busy shopping today

Silas is really pleased with his smelly-feet-proof sandals he purchased, and Matt was really pleased with his fancy dancy shoes too, until he got them back to the hotel and tried them on with socks. Alas, they were too small, maybe they shrank in the box on the way home, maybe they were too small all along. Next time don't curl your toes up when you try on shoes Matthew.

After spending 5 hours shopping, being ripped off by the taxi drivers and getting quite tired, we went back to Shalom. Matt helped Eden play Angry Birds computer game, and then Silas had a turn while Mum, Eden and I went to Robinsons shopping mall for more shopping. Yes that's right, we didn't get enough of the shops, so we had to have some more. The boys met us there for tea.

We did the readings together back at Shalom, and put the children in bed, while we tried to get the blog updated a bit more. Only about 6 days behind now.

So that was our Wednesday. Back at Bugallon, Bro Joel was to do the Bible Study. They have a roster now, where they each take it in turns to prepare something to talk on for Wednesday night, after their combined tea at the hall. It is a great idea, from Cesar, and we hope they will keep it up.
