National Arts Museum

Chen Chen made 2 new friends in the LRT today. 2 kidswith their stay at home mom took MRT with no destination in mind. They kids started with topic on Angry birds as they all wore Angry Birds assessories. Hubby chatted with the 2 kids and asked if they wanna go to Singapore Arts Museum with us. They happyily agreed and requested their mother to go to Singapore Arts Museum with us. Their mother said ok as long as the entrance to the museum is free. The 2 kids and Chen Chen got along well during the trip.
