LUXURIOUS YACHT SINGAPORE CITY SKYLINE CRUISE | FROM SENTOSA COVE TO MARINA BAY - ONLY $50 MOCKTAIL INCLUDED

ABBEY: Being on a yacht cruise is one of the items in my list. At last we managed to book a 1-hr City Skyline Cruise on December 12. This includes a mocktail. We’re ready and excited for our cruise. But a couple of hours before our schedule I got a call that due to bad weather it will be cancelled. We were able to reschedule it at the end of January the next year. Come that day, we’re at One15 Marina Club thirty minutes early.

We onboarded late but the crew assured us that we will be having our whole 60 minutes. And just we were promised we maximized our time; taking snaps with Singapore Skyline and explore the perimeter of Singapore Southern Islands. We enjoyed the whole time and even got a tote bag as souvenir. This is indeed a new way to explore the Red Dot. 

WILL: We are scheduled to have this yacht cruise for our festivity celebration BUT the weather didn’t  permit it. After waiting almost 2 months we were re-scheduled. Anyways! Safety first right? 

 What you will expect at the yacht Singapore skyline tour? Well, it is an hour of travel. You will be seeing the Lazarus Island, Sister and Kusu Island. You will be having a cute lecture about Singapore’s history. You will see for yourself the floating hotel that is on standby for sudden COVID influx. Of course the sight of Marina Bay will not be missed. Be cautious Singapore has huge waves maybe because of the cargo ships moving around the island. 

Yacht Cruise is only $50 (mocktail included) if you book through Sentosa but you can book directly to Le Tara look for kabayan Capt. Fred and you know the drill right? Cough** Discount - Cough**Freebies Haha.

FOC Sentosa - Best Pork Paella in Singapore

ABBEY: One of our activities for our December celebration is to walk the beach line of Sentosa. It was still a few kilometers and we got hungry. The farthest beach we went to is Tanjong Beach and FOC Sentosa is just around the corner. They were able to accommodate us even though no reservation was made. 

We decided to try their Pork Iberico Paella. It was sharing for 40SGD. After 20 minutes our food was served. The pork is tender and melts in your mouth. The fat mixed with rice is a delight. Talk about the rice grain? It is grain in steroids. Each is plump and big. Next thing we know is I’m scooping the crunchy burnt ends on the skillet.

FOC Sentosa 
Best Pork Paella in Singapore 

FOC Sentosa 

WILL: I am guilty! Yes! I am the one who encourages to try new things, new food, new experiences. And that is the reason we want to explore different cuisine like Mediterranean dish! That is why we went to FOC Sentosa after our beach line walk to complete our STRAVA’s challenge.

FOC Sentosa is not your ordinary restaurant. It is located at Palawan Beach and of course you can soak under the sun their daybeds or have a dip in their pools but make sure you have a prior booking as they are almost fully booked everyday.

We went there to dine and we ordered Iberico Pork Paella. Gosh! Expats are right, FOC serves one of the best paella in Singapore. The rice is still firm and rice is the real star of this viand. Unlike other paellas that's smothered by meat, this paella is simple and yet tasty. You will love the toasted rice sticking on the pan. Yummm!! The pork is tender as expected. Can still remember the aroma of the FOC’s Paella. We washed down the Pork Iberico Paella with their coffee.

Please visit and do not forget to book a reservation at FOC Sentosa.

Sentosa Sandsation: MARVEL Edition 2018

ABBEY: Video Blog

WILL: Abbey prefer to stay at home or just jog around Punggol, so if he asked me to go out for us to see or experience something..oh well! I better say Yes!  

Abbey wants to see the sand sculptures at Sentosa. On this year's theme is Marvel Super Heroes. 

We want there after his office hour. Hey! The Sentosa Express is free and there is a intelligent idea for people to walk... what is it? Trams are not available from Beach Station to Siloso Beach. Haha! Anyways, you will enjoy the sights of well-crafted trees and the breeze of the sea. 

The sculptures are humongous! It is like they are presenting the powers of each characters. Thanos is absolutely magnificent. Thor's display not only his face but also the Asgard! Iron Man showed the power of Arc Reactor in his chest! 

After the Marvelous Marvel Characters. There are sculptures that displays the real life heroes. Love to see how beautifully represent the mothers. 

Till next Sandsation!

Marrybrown Singapore - Something Different!

ABBEY's Video Review: Starts at 1:40

WILL: There's a long list of variation of food you can indulge in Sentosa and Marrybrown is one of the fastfood that you can try in the island. And this is the only Marrybrown branch islandwide! The name somewhat sounds like Westerner but don't be fooled...it is a local company from Malaysia. So, do not be intimidated, you can afford the food in here. 

They have a good location, they are just beside the iFly and Luge. Now, you will know that is quite packed every time it is dinner time. 

I ordered fish and chips! Oh lucky! Their fried fish is crispy but not drenched in oil! Dip it at the tartar sauce. Perfect!

Why is there only one branch here in Singapore?

Sentosa Sandsation 2017 & Merlion Magic Lights

ABBEY: Sand artworks are being displayed now at Sentosa. It is time for Sentosa Sandsation 2017. The exhibit is at Siloso Beach (alight the monorail at Beach Station and ride a tram). I was amazed at the structures which shows Singaporean culture like chope, kiasu, queuing, and fondness to food. The artists really put a lot of time and effort for this show. Though it is on the beach, don’t worry about the sun as the exhibit is covered; else the masterpieces will just melt at the first drop of rain. After walking on the tour, head to Imbiah station for a light show at the Merlion. By the way, did I forget to say both are free? Yes, it is for free. Be amazed.

Sentosa Sandsation 2017 : September 1-17

Merlion Magic Lights: September 1 - October 29 (7:45PM, 8:15PM, 8:45PM, 9:15PM)

WILL: I honestly admit that I am lazy to roam around after a day of work...ahm ok even weekends. Haha! This past few months, I am the one who just want to seat, lay on bed and only thing that can make me move is to run around our block or inside the gym. 

I saw the formed sands at Sentosa. It reminds me of what I saw in one of the YouTube video in Japan. So, I scheduled to have that visited one Thursday night and to have a date night too with my husband at Sentosa Island.

We used the Sentosa Boardwalk to gain free entry at the island then we boarded the train and bus (free) to Siloso Beach. Creatively and impressively formed sands are there! We found one guy retouching one of the sculptures and asked them how many days that it was prepared. He answered 10days. Imagine that! All those artists flew to Singapore and work for it for 10days! Truly, this is a must visit attraction. 

Sand sculptures portraits the traditions and food of Singapore and some artists uses their skills to give their message to the people. One thing took my attention, it was a lady child seating on the learning blocks. The blocks was normally curved with letter and numbers, the blocks consist of different brands of clothings, bags and shoes. This will make you think how children are evolving now. It is a good eye-opener for parents. Thanks Mr. Borecki Wiaczeslaw of Poland. 

To hit two in a single trip, we waited for Merlion MagiLights. It will run until 29th of October. It is an astonishing light show. It is my first time to see human-form lights dancing on a transparent screen! 

Sentosa always have something up in their sleeves! And most of it... it is for FREE!!!

Sabio By The Sea at Quayside Isle (Sentosa Island)

ABBEY: After a heavy brunch at Miska, we went to Sabio by the Sea (still at Quayside Isle) for coffee and their famous dessert; Salty Butter Caramel Lava Cake.. 

I got a cappucino. The taste is not that strong but creamy. I enjoyed the dessert specially when the filling flowed down like lava after the cut. The caramel was not too sweet which is ok for me and it really went well with the ice cream.

WILL: We walked down the Quayside Isle on intention to make some spaces for our dessert. Yes! I won’t waste my time and $2 bus fee not to try the well known house signature dessert of Sabio by the Sea... the Pastel de Mantequilla Salada Carmelo de Lava or Salty Butter Caramel Lava Cake. 

All is offering Chocolate Lava so, this is a new thing to explore to. 

We partnered the Caramel Lava Cake with hot drinks. Tea for me, coffee for Abbey! Gosh! On instant, it was written in my fave list. Haha! 

Go on take your date here at Quayside Isle. You will never forget the experience.

Miska Cafe at Quayside Isle (Sentosa Island)

ABBEY: My lovely wife planned this brunch date. We visited Miska at Sentosa Cove. You can catch a bus going there at Harbourfront Bus Interchange. 

The view is great and relaxing; yacht, smiling people and sunny weather. 

I got Doner and Rice. The chicken and veal is tender and moist. I eat them without the sauce (as I didn’t want the taste) and its good. I like the rice. The butter on it made me crave for more.

WILL: Husband’s brain is quite stressed. Why? He is joggling shifting job, 2 trainings, my constant reminder of blogposts, and family affairs. And one day, he blurted out “I want to go to a beach and relax!”, haha! 

I cannot provide that request, why? No more leave is available for me. All used up! Bleh! And to accommodate that Abbey’s wish, I told him that I set-up a mystery date place. Tandaannnn! He wanted to feel sea breeze, We went to Sentosa’s Quayside Isle.  It is just beside W Hotel. 

We took taxi from Harbourfront bus Interchange and alight at right after the parking spaces of yachts. 

We dined at Miska Cafe. I went for Falafel! The size is a shocker. Their serving is for giants. Haha! I inly finished half and Abbey is so full that he do not have the audacity to take some of it. Two thumbs up for Miska’s Falafel. 

Keep an eye on their alcoholic promotions. Booze and food plus beautiful scenery equals total relaxation.

Universal Studios Singapore® - Santa's All-Star Christmas 2015

ABBEY: I've been to Universal Studios Singapore many times and I act as a tour guide to our visitors. This time my highschool bestfriend paid a visit. The theme park "theme" is of course Christmas as the holiday is fast approaching. We were given candy canes at the entrance. We first rode the Madagascar : A Crate Adventure. Next is the 4D movie of Shrek in Far Far Away. After that was the new ride Puss in Boots' Giant Journey. I started to get dizzy. Haha.

We also got a chance to watch a dance showdown by Rockafellaz; Pinoy's very own Streetboys. We had pizza and pasta for lunch. Good thing that it was saved by Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase.

We got a chance to see and feel how it is like to be in a sound studio in Lights, Camera, Action.

By the time we rode Transformers The Ride, my head is really spinning. It rained hard but still Wilma and Jennnee queued up for Cyclon of Battlestar Gallactica. Me? Just waiting for them to finish.

No one ride The Mummy indoor roller coaster. No one wants to experience the unknown.

We also got a snap with Marilyn Monroe. As the rain pour hard, we rested in Jurassic Park's Discovery Centre while sipping coffee and munching chicken lollipops. The Waterworld show was cancelled due to the weather.

The last ride we had is the Canopy Flyer. Our guest was happy and got a great time.

WILL: This is my first time to go to Universal Studios Singapore during festive season. Why? Because I am avoiding a jam-packed themed park, because I hate long queues for the rides and for the toilets, because it is very hard to take a seat for some snacks, and ultimately.. because I will not enjoy the rest of the day. But, when we were there, there is no queue at all, but of course except the leading rides. Haha. 

I am praying not to rain but it did. It is Sunday but the sun fails to showed up! Argh! But still the fun never stops. Umbrella is on! Haha. 

I enjoyed their Sesame Street Saves Christmas Show, as if I came back to my childhood! Haha. As the rain is pouring, we sat and ate at Loui's NY Pizza Parlor. Luckily when we went out from the diner, drizzles greeted us. Oh, I am so excited for this.. Battlestar Galactica Cyclone version. Wohoooo! I only got to try the human version because the cyclone is always under repair when we visited the park. So what I can say? Cyclone version is indeed the best! Literally a hair-raiser, haha! I want to go for one more ride but Jennee refused my suggestion. Hmp!  

Next stop is the Transformers. Because I am with engineers, after the ride, they are explaining how it was made. Still raining, so we go to witness my one of favorite, Lights..Camera..Action. The. We go for kiddie ride Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase. Speaking rides for kids, we also got to try the new Puss in Boots Giant Journey and Abbey and Jennee cursed me when I asked them to seat behind the Canopy Flyer at The Lost World. 

We ate our snack at Discovery Food Court with my favourite corndog. Haha! We ended our USS tour with Donkey Show. We are definitely entertained. 

I hope our visitor enjoyed as we do. :) haha! Thanks rain and cloud another first time. First time visiting USS with no sunburn. 

Images of Singapore & Madame Tussauds Singapore - Sentosa Island

ABBEY: What Singapore did with Madame Tussauds gallery is that they bundled it with Images of Singapore. I don't know if the guests can have the option to directly go to Wax Museum or not but it would be better to go to Images of Singapore first. It is 40-minute live show that presents Singapore's beginning and future plans. Then you will be riding a boat and see Singapore icons like The Singapore Flyer, Marina Bay Sands, and F1 Grand Prix.

Political figures will greet you at the first stop on the museum. It includes US President Barack Obama, Mao Zhe Dhong, Queen Elizabeth, Singapore's own Lee Kwan Yew and Kwa Geok Choo, PM Lee, and Singapore First President Yusof bin Ishak.

Next are the sports superstars like Yao Ming, David Beckham, and Tiger Woods. 

I also had a pose with local artist Gurmit Singh. Then our Indian friends celebrating Deepavali were ecstatic in taking their snaps together with some of the Bollywood stars: Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai, and Hrithik Roshan.

The wax figures of international singers are also displayed. Beyonce, King of Pop Michael Jackson, King of Rock and Roll Elvis Presley, The ABBA, Madonna and Taylor Swift.

After Bollywood comes Hollywood. The Terminator, Jackie Chan, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kiddman were among them. Even though the museum is smaller than in Hongkong I still enjoyed my visit.

WILL: We bought the ticket for both.

Images of Singapore is a interactive place that you will learn and participate from the past and present of Singapore. An informative and good place to know how this Little Red Dot starts their journey from freedom to its present being. 

We alighted from the boat ride and from that I know that we will be entering the famous wax museum. 

This is the second Madam Tussauds we visited. First is at Hong Kong. So what we love in here? Of course we want to see the figure of Lee Kwan Yew and Madam Kwa Geok Choo, PM Lee, and haaay...Taylor Swift (my husband's greatest crush). 

All my siblings had fun specially they know that they can touch and even kiss the wax figures of the celebrities they really like. 

See some of the photos. They really enjoyed being close to them right? Haha!

Fort Siloso Singapore

ABBEY: This is the part of Sentosa where we haven't set our foot in, but the ground must be covered. 

By 12:30PM at Beach Station, an "old bus" will take you to the fort. An entrance free of 12SGD should be paid. Fort Siloso served as the primary stronghold against the war enemy that comes from the south sea.

We were glad that our tour guide is charming and always smiling. Her name is Annabelle, but we wondered why her nameplate shows Baxter. Anyways, she led us to the first stop of the tour, the recreation area of POW during Japanese Occupation. In here was a diorama of Pulau Blakang Mati which is now known as Sentosa and its different zones. Next is the tunnel under a war gun where the ammunitions were kept. Being a soldier is tough specially in war; poor ventilations, small spaces and large chance of being killed. The third stop is all about the life under Japanese regimen. Foods were rationed, people will be jailed, tortured and killed without any reason and a lot of propaganda for brainwashing specially the little ones.

The tour ended on what they called as Surrender Chambers. It relives the scene of Singapore surrendering to Japanese forces led by Gen. Yamashita. And on the next room was the scene where Allied Forces led by Lord Mountbatten liberated Singapore from Japan. Those are touching scenes and a lot to learn from the history.

WILL: We need to know the past and learn from it or history will just repeat itself. 

That is why Singapore gives a big effort to let locals and tourist know how it was to be on their  "dark ages". The time, World War II, when they were conquered by Japanese with the leadership of General Yamashita. It was a big trick or I should say Yamashita knew the "art and power of making a deal" that time. 

Here in Fort Siloso, you will see the real cannons. You can check-out the bankers, undergrounds tunnels and the famous signing of Japanese surrendering to the Allied Forces. 

This is an informative day for us. You can join a tour if you do not have an idea where to start. The entrance fee for locals is $10 and for tourist is $12. If you're already at Sentosa why not check this out. 

Underwater World Singapore and Dolphin Lagoon - Sentosa

ABBEY: I wasn't aware that there are two marine life attractions in Sentosa until last week. One is the SEA Aquarium near Waterfront Station. This is considered as the biggest aquarium in Asia. And the other is at Siloso point, the Underwater World. We went to Underwater World upon my sister's visit. 

At 4PM, the show started for pink dolphins in the Dolphin Lagoon. They are wonderful creatures, very graceful and intelligent. They showed how they can sing, wave, pass through a hoop and give their signature jumps. Fur seals also joined them in exhibiting their tricks like how fast they can swim and catching rings. 

I hope Sentosa management takes good care of them. Not much difference between SEA Aquarium and Underwater World, both have clear tunnels filled with fish, rays and sharks. The walkalator in Underwater World is a plus though.

WILL: As we need to be more picky on the activities we should do on Abbey’s sister second visit, we chose to go to Underwater World of Sentosa instead Jurong Bird Park. Why? We need to give Ate Rizbeth non-tiring tour. All we need to do is to sit and watch the dolphin show and explore the aquarium which is all air-conditioned. So less sweat, less stress for the family of three.

We arrived 30 minutes before the show at Dolphin Lagoon. We picked the best spot which is not so close to the pool and yet there is blower to puff away the heat of the 25^th day of October.

The show started and the arena was filled by spectators. The dolphin is really an adorable creature. So Cute! So when the host asked for a volunteer that will interact with them I never falter to raise my hand and shout “me-me-me!” And yes she picked me! I am so excited to be in a photo with a dolphin for second time. Yes! Second time. The first when I was only a grade school student. I paid Php150.00 to be kissed by a dolphin. Now it is free! A long interaction and got a chance to touch their fins and head, command them to clap and sing. A great experience. Please do visit them. Pink dolphins really made my day.

After the exhilarating event we went back to the Underwater World. The spider crab is really fascinating. Their room is quite congested because it is Saturday. All tourist congesting the island of Sentosa, haha! Anyways. I enjoyed their magnified aquarium.

Thanks Dolphin Lagoon crew. Abbey’s nephew cannot get over of the show. He is still teling “Ninang? Bopin?” (means Godmother? Dolphin?)  

Sentosa Buskers Festival 2014

ABBEY: Another year has passed and Sentosa Buskers Festival is back. We only have one goal; to see Grumpy Queen Vic and have a snap with her. Upon arriving in Beach Station, Les Dudes is already performing. They are one of the wacky duo who does torch juggling, riding unicycle and acrobatics. After their act, I heard a loud whistle that sends a signal of urgency. It was Tuto Tul; a mime calling out his audience. He made his funny head stands and antics with audience participation. The show turned out to be good as the volunteers were game.

After that, we went to Palawan beach to see the "Queen". She was really grumpy :) Even the sound of violin from Singaporean artist Dan cannot put a smile across her face. Maybe because she was placed in the farthest part of the Buskers' Festival area. It would be better to place her in the area near iFly. We were about to leave as our mission was accomplished.

It was a good thing that we stayed. A few minutes later Aerial Manx of Australia started his act. He did lit up a whip and extinguished the flames by striking it. Each sonicboom was matched with a fireball. The sight was awesome. The last act is a dangerous one. So unique that he was logged into Guiness World record. He swallowed a 42-inch sword, did a cartwheel and then backflipped. That's how you end a performance.

WILL: Have you been to any of Sentosa’s Buskers Festival? No? Whyyyy? Tell me why?!

This season, I laughed a lot, my jaw-dropped a lot and I spend a lot for the tips. Haha!

Sentosa squeeze in the performances to the a smaller vicinity of the island, it is a good thing, viewers can jumped in to one act simultaneously. First we saw the Les Dudes from Canada. Unicycle is their forte. Tuto Tul got our attention when he blew his whistle. He is really amazing. He is a mime, clown and a magician. He make his audiences participate on his show.

We ran to The Garden to check out The Grumpy Queen from United Kingdom. Well she is the reason why we chose to go on Monday. Haha! I tried to make her smile, but efforts are futile. She is really a grumpiest off all grumpy queen in the whole wide world.

We were about to go home when we saw Aerial Manx from Australia fixing his stuffs, when I read on the pamphlet that he is a Guinness World Record holder, Winner of Apollo Bay Buskers Competition and performed on almost all of the famous city, we decided to stay, sit and enjoy his antics. Well, a breathtaking, tongue-swallowing and heartbeat-stopper performance Aerial Manx showed to us.

This weekend please visit them at Sentosa.. The State of Fun. Its free but please give some tips to the buskers if you enjoyed their shows. J

Wings of Time - Where Imagination Takes Flight

ABBEY: After the seven-year stint of Songs of the Sea, it ended with flying colours. And speaking of flying, Sentosa offers another light, water and sound show with Wings of Time. 

We won a pair of tickets on the first day of the show itself. It was a story of Shahbaz going his way home with the help of Rachel and her friend Felix. Yes that is the story line. I can't see the connection of the concerto maestro as well as the role of the other casts on the plot. Once the animation began, the casts were "casted" on the sidelines unlike on the Songs of the Sea wherein there is an interaction. But in Wings of Time, the light show and fireworks are better. Your eyes will feast on the light patterns as well as its coordination with the fireworks and water. 

Tickets were priced at 18SGD for regular and 23SGD for premium seats.

WILL: Thanks to the State of Fun for giving us an opportunity to see first the most awaited show at Sentosa…The Wings of Time debuts last 17th of June.

The place is packed with people. Unlike Songs of the Sea, the audiences was more comprised more by adults. I am surprised that the performers singing LIVE! The speakers is more louder, the spotlight is more clearer, and there is more interaction form the viewers than before. Sorry for comparing this show at the SOS, maybe people cannot avoid to compare the past from every successor.

The water show, light and pyrotechnics here is better. Projectors is magnificent. Storyline? I think they need to improve the closing remarks.

Who wants to travel back time but no Time Machine to use? Go ahead at Sentosa and watch the Wings of Time. Click at Deal.Com.Sg Banner below for discounted rates.

Dinner Buffet @ The Kitchen Table - W Singapore Sentosa Cove

ABBEY: One for one promotion buffet (SGD 65++) entitled to SPG cardholders? Better not miss it. We redeemed it at W Hotel at Sentosa. It is an international buffet which consists of French, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, and Indian cuisines. We were attended by Christine, a very warm, friendly and accomodating hostess. She explained the different stations of the restaurant as well as some of the dishes. She sees to it that the guest will have a good experience during their stay.

I got papadum and lamb curry as starter. The meat is tender and curry really goes well with the chip. I also had plain naan and curry combo. Then I went to Western station and got; dory fillet in schezuan sauce; sea bass in pesto cream sauce and stir-fried Beef in minced scallion and garlic.

Next round I had pulled pork with root vegetables. A chef approached our table and asked if we like to try seared salmon. Who are we to say no? :) It was mouth-watering. 

Then another served us a thin crust chorizo pizza. For dessert I chose chocolate mousse. It was served in a cocktail glass. Serving is small but it is enough to satisfy my sweet cravings. A cup of coffee and then we headed home.

WILL:  Starwood hotel chain is very famous for the travelers around the globe so when W Singapore Sentosa Cove debuted its opening last year here, I immediately browsed their site to get a free Starwood Preferred Guest membership.

One night while checking where I can get a buffet for my Kuya Laleng, I saw The Kitchen Table's 1-for-1 dinner promotion and yes, that was only available for their members. I send an email, but sad to say, my brother's itinerary can't it make so I just booked for 2 on 22nd October.

Directly from office we hailed a taxi and alighted in front of the W Hotel. We were greeted by their staffs and a nicely decorated staircase welcomed us.

As the concierge told us, go up to the stairs, turn right, go down and turn left. There! We found the The Kitchen Table.

As we walked our way in, we saw the "promised" sign and not the "reserved" one. We were seated with a view of not less than 10 parked yacht.

Sorry I do not start my meal with a salad, well, I don't even go near to that station. My I sat my first plate with sashimi, and sushi.

2nd plate, the breads shouting at me asking me to take a bite, so I paved my way and get some bread and I sliced some 4 cheese tart. Ohh lala! Perfect combination!

I went back to the Japanese station to get an oyster and an very huge shrimp. I ordered a gnocchi with white sauce for my 4th plate, darling this gnocchi really good, the taste is superb.

As my tummy is expanding, I asked Cristine for a hot tea to help my stomach digest all the foods. When I felt that its okay again, I ask the chef to give me some steamed chicken with mushroom. This plate of were so nice and it flashbacked all the food I have eaten when I am in China. A plate of papadum was my last plate.

Oooops, for desert, I get the deconstructed cheesecake, so yummy, I can eat 3 of those but my tummy really can't make a way for another shot.

I really love that night. It seems that we are still in courting stage. Abbey surprised me a half dozen of red roses. So sweet right? We talked a lot that night, we exchanged views about our current office events, we even pictured what will be the design of our own home. 

Thanks Abbey for this wonderful evening.
