Istana on May Day

Some friends have been asking me why this blog hasn't been updated.

Well, April was quite a tiring month. Lots of things happened. Lots of soul searching. Lots of emotional roller coaster. I had so much things on my mind...too many.

Moving on, since my previous entry was on the last day of March, I shall continue with a blog about the first day of May.

The Istana was open to public on May day. So I brought my dad for a visit, since he had never step inside before. The Istana ground was free for Singaporean and Permanent Residents. But to go inside the Istana Building to see the Staterooms requires a 2 dollar entrance fee.

Enough said. Some photos to test your internet bandwidth...

Obey the rules or thou shall not enter

Lots of flowers on the Istana ground.
Too bad I don't have a macro lens.

The President is at home.
But I think he was suffering from jet lag.
