We Love Mosha

ABBEY:  Elephants are flocking at Tangs and other places in Singapore. They are not real though. Those are statues painted with different design to commemorate Elephant parade, an exhibition that promotes elephant conservation awareness. The parade was inspired by Mosha, a baby elephant who lost its foot by stepping into a landmine. It was started by father and son, Marc and Mike Spits when they met Mosha in Thailand. The elephant was able to walk again by the help of an artificial leg. Tangs took part in the parade through social media by conducting a contest; find Mosha on the web. Luckily I got the 3rd price (a 20-cm replica of Mosha and a 50sgd limited edition Tangs card). My wife was one of who has consolation prize(10sgd Tangs card). The replica is beautiful; beautiful enough to keep than to give :) Just this one. WILL:   As we celebrate the coming of the biggest figurine show that occurred here in singapore, Tangs made a contest to find Mosha who is lost ...

Logos Hope

ABBEY:  We were strolling along Vivo finding a place to dine when we notice a ship on the harbor. We thought that it was Duolos. We went outside and saw her named as Logos Hope. Entrance is free of charge. Like Doulos they travel around the world to give and sell books to impart knowledge.  They also conduct counseling regarding relationships and HIV awareness. In here I bought 3 books, 6sgd each, for Left Behind series. I'm halfway for the 12-part collection :)  The ship has a cafe too. I got hot chocolate for 2sgd. It was served in a BIG cup. Carolers entertain the guests as they enjoy their snacks. I hope I can complete my book if they'll come here again. WILL:   Have you heard of Doulos? A ship that goes around the world carrying books and was manned by volunteers of different nations. Well, as I know, Doulos had now stopped roaming the oceans and now Logos Hope came to continue what Doulos had started.       ...

Ajisen Ramen

ABBEY:  I thought we had already blogged this restaurant but my wife told me its not. How can we miss to blog this when they served the tastiest chicken wings? :) Yes, their chicken wings taste great. I don't know what herbs or spices they combine but outcome is good. we visited 2 of their branches; The first is when we celebrated our anniversary at Compass Point in Sengkang and the second one is after our free ice skate session at IMM in Jurong East. WILL:  This is such a great restaurant. I really love noodles and it can be my staple food forever. Haha.  Ajisen offers variety of noodles and i really fell in love on all of them. Haha! Visit their IMM and Compasspoint branch then linger in also on the best fried chicken we have tasted. :)          More power to Ajisen. Their price ranges from $8 up. :) 

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

ABBEY:  Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law pulled it again. They have a good chemistry as the two detectives that solved the case against Dr. Moriarty. They played their characters well. Action, comedy, mystery, great effects - satisfaction to the viewers. Sherlock seemed to have trouble in his monologue because the villain also "joins" in his mind. Bravo, Mr. Holmes! WILL:  I love SH not only in big screen but also on books. Fond of reading this kind of stories. Well, sherlock Holmes is the greatest investigator/detective the fiction world that can tell.        This second movie... this is more wackier haha. 9/10. Thanks a lot SweetHoneyDeals for the movie voucher. ;) 

JCube Free Ice Skates

ABBEY:  I'm excited when Wilma told me that we will be having free ice skate sessions. I want to learn to skate be it in line, ice or roller skates. IMM mall in Jurong East conducted free 30-min sessions a week before Christmas. All sessions were fully booked. Good thing that the one we had is reserved as we won an online contest. My blog should not be that long. I was not able to skate. No shoes fits my feet. I became their photographer. All I can do is listen to the instructor and watch them glide in the ice. The session ended with group photo.  WILL:  We are still on vacation when I and Abbey received an invitation from JCube about the free ice skates with tutorial for 30mins.       It was more than a decade since my last slide on iced floor. Hehe. If my memory serves me right, Marbogs Sayson is my last partner in that event. Haha.       December 18 at IMM, my knees and guts were tested. Shocks, I know how to stand...
