One of AN's Gymboreemate's mummy invited us to join them on an 'excursion' to the Toy Train Museum yesterday (Sun). It was better than I imagined the museum to be! It was nothing like a museum but the collection was enough to impress us and most importantly, AN. She enjoyed watching those toy trains and couldn't bear to leave. They do not open often (only two Sundays this month and every other months). Trains were miniature models of real ones, put together by, I don't know, train fanatics? Ken's (one of AN's gymboreemate) dad told Mr Liow one can pay to become a member and put his pride on display for others to appreciate. Those should be what we were admiring that day.
Picture time!

I took AN out to change her diapers and she kept nagging to go back in (she suspected that was the end of the tour). Mr Liow came out before I was done and said there was nothing much else left (in mandarin). AN probably saw her fears come true and started repeating "Mummy we go back to see train ok?" and got increasingly panicky when I didn't reply (I was asking Mr Liow why suddenly decide to leave). We went back in anyway, coz AN wasn't prepared to leave. I couldn't bear to leave either, especially when AN's so into train watching!
