Dad's 60th Birthday @ Rose Veranda, Shangrila (28 June)

It was dad's 60th birthday! We decided to take advantage of the "Flash your age" promo at Shangrila where we could get the discount off the age of the person celebrating his/her bdae. Quite a gd deal.....pretty much pay off the fact that Shian and I were on hold for almost an hour trying to make a reservation when we called like a month before!

All of us enjoying the comfy seats, cosy ambience (very tai tai kinda atmosphere if you can imagine!):

Food variety was not quite there...taste of food was ok only....but the service there was great, the ambience was very nice....very pampering.....and also....the coffee and particularly the tea selection there was incredible! We had like unlimited flow of various coffee and tea....

Dad and Mum enjoying their coffee/tea:

Amidst the busy schedules of our lives, its really nice that the whole family can chill out together....eat, drink, chat, take pics :)

Karen & Family....oh my....the kids have really grown!

Shian & me and the very nice bunch of pink roses....could have got a better picture if not for Gareth running to and fro blocking the camera while we were to trying to pose!

Me with the cute princess...

Of course we had the all important birthday cake:

And the family picture- the must have!

After we finished with the hi-tea....we also went picture taking at the lobby area.....how dad and mum enjoyed the day with the kids:

Sheena and James also enjoying the walk around the hotel lobby...

It was indeed a great day out with my family! :) We should do more of these....
