we got family visit today! Vio and his parents, Om Deden and Tante Hanny, came by Singapore after a few days of Surgeon Conference in Batam.

we first had lunch at Kandahar Street, having a good yummy Nasi Padang.

surprisingly, my aunt — who is Orang Padang — said that this Nasi Padang is quite authentic. even more authentic than those found in Bandung. wow, that taxi driver really knew what he’s talking about…

after that, we walked to Bras Basah complex to find books. while Vio, Om Deden and Tante Hanny walk in and out of bookstores, ari and i went shopping for canvas printing. we’re planning to print some of our stuff onto canvas and hang them in our house. we came back with name cards, while Vio came back with a bag full of medical books.

after walking around, we took a break at Han’s at the National Library and have some drink.

   

we didn’t stay there long. we took a bus to go to the Chinatown and hang out there for the rest of the afternoon. my aunt walked around to find glasses, while Vio, ari and i walked around in the Club Street area and took pictures.

   

around 5:30PM, we took the train to go back to Harbour Front and say goodbye to them as they are to go back to Batam.
