Street Walker Festival At Dubai Marina

Max read somewhere that there is a street festival in Dubai Marina Mall and since the weekends are getting qutie boring, we decided to drive all the way there to take a look lah. I was expecting like a whole carnival and was very interested in this Soft People exhibition they had.

Alas, I was a tad disappointed when I reached the mall as it was just some ad hoc street performances at the promenade area. Also, the SOFT PEOPLE exhibition (which is an exhibition of female bodies made of yarn) was just a few people strewn randomly around the mall with no explanation whatsoever.

But thankfully, the street performances were quite interesting..

Ace was however quite upset that the weather was warm and there was nothing he was really interested in. Somehow he couldn't appreciate watching how this man was trying to balance on a few cylinders and all he wanted to do was to go to Borders to read books! wahahahahahaha.....

So he was grumpy throughout.. check out tat scowl....


Even the most exciting tricks did not help to make him excited!

Ace's bad mood was made worse when we saw a balloon man who made fantastic balloons.. he can make not just dogs and flowers but elmo and even Super Mario lor! Ace wanted a balloon but we found out that you had to pay for the balloon. I felt it was quite useless to pay for a balloon tat will lao hong after a while and had no educational value and told Ace I will not get him one.. so he started sulking...

Anyway, after that, we decided to go for dinner with our friend Wai Leng who stayed nearby and she suggested that we go supermart to buy some stuff and visit her new place and she will cook dinner for us:) hahaha..

While the chef was busy cooking, Max was bz checking his phone and Ace was just busy eating cos we had a very light lunch and i figured he was super hungry by then:)

This is the view of the house...

Big Chef Wai Leng at work.. i helped to beat and season eggs and to entertain Chef by chatting with her:) wahahaha


This is a pic taken using the panorama function of an app...

I din take pics of the food cos was too hungry by then:) Just tucked in merrily! Very nice! Thanks, Wai Leng for the wonderful dinner!

Too bad we couldnt stay longer as it was saturday night and Ace had school tomorrow and we had to reach home earlier so that he can go to bed early.
