Old-school self-timer needs a lil' getting-used-to. 
Dreamy. 
This must be how the photo would look like if we were in the 60s.
Kampong boy.
Archie does Mexican Ceviche. I must jot this down in my recipe book...
Still dreaming about the quiche pie...
I thrive on hopeless useless romance.
Shutterbug set free.
We spotted a humming bird. =)
Lone orchid nestled among the roots & moss twining up the wall
Betcha you've never seen twirly orchid before. :)It's a shame I can't show you what Archie took with his vintage SLR. The films have been developed and I have to praise Archie's for his good picture composition. Pity, I don't think his scanner would do the pictures justice. So I'll only share the ones we took with my Sony Cybershot. ;)
By the way, Archie makes tantalizing quiche pies too. Pretty awesome for a first-timer. Man, this guy surprises me sometimes. I gobbled up the rest of the ceviche and quiche pie for supper later that day. Heh.
We set our picnic mat before the morning dew settled. A little humid but still bearable (Singapore climate, ain't a surprise). About three hours later when the sun starts to glare brighter, I checked myself in the mirror and I nearly screamed in horror. Humidity killed my hair. My nicely dry-dryer-blown hair was frizzing and flying in all directions. Even with a sun hat on. Horrors!
Anyway if you should visit Botanic Gardens, don't miss the Orchid garden. Admission fee is $5 for adults but you won't regret it. The number of orchid species is mind-boggling (i.e. totally worth the money). Take a stroll around the gardens and individual mist houses and absorb as much antioxidants as you can. Haha! The trail is well-thought and almost every flora and fauna is carefully tagged so you know what you're admiring. I like the mist house the best for the most practical reason - it has cooler fans.
I have decided not to hold a Christmas party this year. But Archie's quiche pie and ceviche is luring me into holding one so i can get him to make me more. What a lousy reason, I know. ;)
