Monday Music Moves Me

Summer Music Moves Me, Lotte World Korea

Lotte World

Last Monday we brought the kids over to Lotte World, Seoul.  It was one of the places that was a must visit for the kids.  I’ve hear a lot about this Theme park. I  was certain that the kids  would love spending the day there going on the different rides there. It has been a really warm summer and I am glad that half of the rides in this theme park was indoor and we had the cool air-con instead of the blistering sun to bear with.

Bumper Cars

Bumper cars were the kids favourite ride. They had a few rounds on the bumper cars as one round was not enough for them to fully enjoy themselves. Even Tiger girl was raring to go on the car by herself but she had to be accompanied as she is still a tad too little to drive the car by herself.

Wonderland Ride

 

We went on a train ride through Wonderland where the kids and I went through  rooms filled with  candies, chocolates and other treats. It was really cool seeing Goldilocks and the three bears and other familiar characters from my childhood years.

Lotte World ParadeWe managed to catch the daily parade where the floats and animals in costumes came out for their performance. The kids  really loved seeing the Penguins dancing and the lights flashing on the floats. I’ll be sharing more pictures of Lotte world later this week in another post.  I took nearly  800 pictures last weekend and am slowly sorting through all of them.

Last weekend I had some tasty treats. R and I checked out Robert Timms at Wheelock place with  C my secondary school classmate. It has been an awful long time since I met up with her. The last time I saw her was went Doggie boy was born and it was great to catch up and find out how she has been doing for the past few years. While catching up with her I indulged myself in some tasty deserts and finger food.

Yummy dessert

Chocolate Molten Bundt with toffee topping served with a side of vanilla ice-cream.

This dessert tasted heavenly. I like how moist the chocolate cake was and the vanilla ice-cream really complimented it.

fries

French fries in a vase.

This is a really neat idea. Now I have an excuse to bring out the vase to use as a holder for chips and remind R how lovely it would really look if there were flowers inside it .** Big Hint**

 

It’s amazing how  our paths have changed since we graduated from school. After leaving secondary school we have pursued our various interests and embarked on our career paths. Some of us have become bankers, teachers, architects. Some of us have gotten married and have kids while others remain single.

A lot of changed the past 20 years since we were secondary school students and our ideals and priorities have altered over the ages. It was really great to have her still a part of my life.

 

Have you met up with any old friends lately?

This week the theme is on music from movies. I’m choosing a theme song from one of Jay Chou’s Movie.
