Excursion to Changi Airport

I woke up late this morning as I reached home around midnight after work yesterday.

We decided to stay at home this morning. As such, I warmed up some bread buns, etc and we ate that for our breakfast.

The mug of tea that you see below is very creamy because it is a 3-in-1 teh tarik.

In the afternoon, we went "house hunting" with PIL. It was an interesting afternoon and we had the "pleasure" of seeing the ugly side of a housing agent who happened to be at the same development where we were at. This agent was neither our agent nor the prospective vendor's agent. He looked young but age is no excuse for lack of upbringing and lack of respect for elders and fellow housing agents.

As we made our way back to our home to freshen up, FIL commented that for him, he would have difficulty saying which of the various apartment units that we have viewed so far that he prefers. I think that the difficulty for him is that his current apartment unit, although smaller in floor area than many of those that we have viewed, appears to be more spacious because it is old (his development is more than 20 years old) and his unit does not have household shelter, utility room, yard, etc. As such, each room is larger than the newer developments.

In the evening, we went on an excursion to Changi Airport. MIL wanted to have dinner at the staff canteen and we proceeded to the staff canteen at Changi Airport Terminal 1. Gosh, the prices of the food sold at the staff canteen have gone up.

FIL ate pork mee sua (with soup).

MIL ate "spare parts" soup with steamed white rice.

MIL ordered for me meat ball soup with mee sua.

FIL and I found our dinner extremely salty. MIL, on the other hand, did not find her meal salty even though it was the same soup as FIL's and my soup.

Da was still full from our nonya buffet high tea (that we ate at Lion City Hotel's coffeehouse) and as such, he decided to have a drink only.

Singaporeans love to go for outings at our Changi Airport. I do not know whether this phenomenon happens in other countries as well. Our airport is world class and it is a wonderful place to have an outing. Also, the number of eating establishments there leave one spoiled for choice.
