AMD Team Building Q1 2007

We have our AMD team building today. We left office early around 3pm for bowling at SuperBowl at Marina, then we went to Marina Square for a sumptuous buffet dinner at Yaki Yuki restaurant.

Yaki Yuki DIY Ice Cream

The Yaki Yuki restaurant has a specialty – DIY ice cream buffet. The container at the center could be heatup for BBQ or cool down for ice cream making. You could squeeze our creative jucie and experiment with different mix of ice cream. Highly recommend.

Bukit Timah Treking

Today (17 Mar 07) we climbed the tallest hill in Singapore – Bukit Timah Hill. Believe it or not….it is the first time in my 35+ years to come to this Bukit Timah Reserve. It is the first time for Ming Liang and Ming Xuan too. Second time for Chew Hoe within one month. He did his first climb with his colleagues 3 weeks ago.

As a family, we took about 40mins to reach to the summit. Along the way, Ming Liang kept saying “Never give up, never give up” . He really looked tired while he was climbing the hill and was really delighted when he reached the top. Ming Xuan, as usual, was full of energy. He was leading the pack. Unlike his brother, he did not look tired at all. He kept saying ” Come on… come on”, urging everyone to hurry up

The climb down the hill was easier. It only took us 25mins to reach the bottom. Maybe because it was getting dark and we all fastened our steps so that we would not be caught walking in the darkness. We were almost like running down the steep slope. Ming Xuan was almost going to fall because he was running too fast. Ming Liang was trying to “overcome the pull of the gravity force”, as he said.

Besides going to Bukit Timah reserve, we also went to the nature park beside it. Unfortunately, we all cannot remember the name of the park. The park has some construction going on. A new playground is being built and will be ready by end Mar. We will be back for the playground. While walking in the jungle, we saw squirrels and a Komodo dragon! It was very interesting to see the dragon in the wild jungle.

Overall, the trip was enjoyable. We all had a great time! Even though our legs are tired, we are all very proud of ourselves for climbing the TALLEST hill in Singapore. Big achievement for the kids.
