Landed

We made it here in Singapore safe and sound without much incidents...except for one which nearly caused us to miss our flight. Thank God the journey here went quickly (almost 12hours). The girls slept 6 hours continously. I tried to catch a wink while they slept but hardly rested properly as they were both facing each other, Lavigne's head on my lap, Louisa's on the armrest on her seat, their feet facing each other's. So when one moved, I had to move the other's legs, kept having to cover blanket for them. It happened every few minutes. There were many great movies but I didn't manage to watch even one whole show, not even Ratatouille (sigh!). I thought with no help, I didn't want to forsake rest just to watch a movie. When we came home to my parents', I'd begun to feel very sleepy (5pm). The girls enjoyed running round the house and scoot and cycled at the car porch. A change from our very small and confined house in England. Lavigne's hair was constantly wet even though it wasn't really that hot. When my sisters came home from work and saw her, they'd thought she'd just taken a shower. The girls went to bed at 8pm and Lavigne continued to perspire in the airconditioned room. She woke at about 3am asking for breakfast and Louisa was woken up by her. I gave them some food and put them back to bed. Louisa got up at 8+ while Lavigne and I continued to slumber. Right now, with the cloudy skies and cool air, fan on full blast, Lavigne is still perspiring profusely. Bringing them to Compasspoint to 'Meet and Greet' the Disney Princesses now.
