Well, Singapore does not have autumn season, but we have a Mid-Autumn festival. Check out the Mid-Autumn festival along Clarke Quay Singapore. Just love the colourful lanterns and special performance.

The Terracotta Warriors exhibition at the Asian Civisalisation Museum (ACM) Singapore was great. The exhibition showed the famed Terracotta Warriors from Shanxi China. Totally enjoyed the experience standing in front of the warriors. The warriors' faces were all in the state of war and even the one horse on exhibit looked aggressive.

Singapore organise a Night Festival 2011 around the Stamford area. The buildings like the Singapore Arts Musuem, National Museum Singapore and SMU building were all lighted up in a creative way. Very interesting experience.  Lighted Volvos  Jelly fish!!!! Flying !!  Storms clouds at the cafe!  Fish eating up the couple! 

Spotted this MG car along Kandahar Street in Bugis area Singapore. Love the black colour.

Walk through the Hari Raya Bazaar near the Sultan Mosque at Beach Road area (Singapore). Seems like every year the people there sells many things during the Hari Raya Bazaar. Even the tourists come and visit the bazaar. The stores sell cookies, kebabs, cakes, drinks and many items. I love walking the yearly bazaar near the Sultan Mosque! Smiling kebab store owner! Say Cheese!!!

Had a decent meal at Old Town Cafe (Singapore)- love their deluxe nasi lemak rice with super nice chicken wings, nuts and spicy chilli. Had a Xi Mut Tea - very nice tea with condensed milk!

Had a nice hamburger meat with baked rice set at Fruit Paradise outlet at Plaza Singapura. The baked rice was nice and can top up with their signature Fruit Tart (had mango and strawberry tart). Very nice meal. I like the deco of the Fruit Paradise outlet - comfortable place to have a meal. The fruit tarts looks great and yummy!

There is new eating place named Wheat Baumkuchen at Toa Payoh Blk 190 Lorong 6 (near to Toa Payoh Hub Singapore). The place serves great Japanese Noodles like soba and have the signature German Baumkuchen cake. The noodles are unique and healthy, and dishes comes in cute names like Polar Bear, Reindeer, Whale, Dolphin, Penguin, Seal, all strange names for noodle dishes. I love the food and their signature cake which have many flavours like apple, matcha, chocolate.

Yup, Harry Potter final movie is over. Going to miss the Harry Potter series. I always wonder how JK Rowling could be so imaginative to come up with such a series on magic and wizards? I like the final movie for it got many fighting scenes and scary moments. Everything seems to fall into place over the many years I have read the Potter books and saw the movie series. Good Bye Potter and Mr Who Cannot be Name.

Had a nice meal at Cedele Cafe located in Railway Mall. Food was chicken salad with nice salad dressings, roast chicken, walnuts and nice vegetables. The best was the handmade Cedele Beef Burger. The Beef Burger was great! Had chocolate truffle cake and 'hot addiction' hot chocolate drink . There is a free flow of nice bread with the main course. The cafe is very nice with people eating in and chit chatting. Nice ambience. All Very Nice!

The visit to the Old Ford Factory Museum located at Bukit Timah Road was interesting. The place showcases the period when Japan occupied Singapore in the 1940s. The Old Ford factory is an important landmark in Singapore, most remembered as the site where the British surrendered Singapore to the Japanese on 15 February 1942. The place used to be a Ford Car factory, now restored by the National Archives of Singapore, it houses a World War II exhibition gallery.
