Day Out At The Singapore National Museum

 

It was the Children’s Season at the Singapore National Museum few weeks ago. We brought our boys to the National Museum since it has been more than ten years since I last visited it.

 

The lamps above our heads are swinging back and forth..back and forth...hypnotising effects

These costumes that we used to see only in movies and TV shows appeared right before our eyes. They look so sophisticated and heavy but definitely expensive and elegant.

Young children are so lovely and cheerful. They are happy anywhere they are as long as they have parents' company.

Though main admission is free, the admission to some of the galleries are by tickets. Darren definitely learned fast because he went around asking the admission officers of the different galleries “Have to buy tickets to come in or have to pay money?”.  For a small boy of his age, he certainly made us amused but also embarrassed. It is like telling others “mummy and daddy are too stingy to pay for tickets” <In malay they say, “malu” means “embarassed”..ohoh….>
