This 清明 period, I'll be going to both grandparents' graves on 2 different dates.
Father side: 03 April 2011
Mother side: 11 April 2011

03 April 2011
Going by MRT to Ang Mo Kio, and continue the journey by bus to Upper Paya Lebar.
Usual stuff, nothing special except the weather is humid. :(

Discussing about next location with my family members.
No way to West area as we are in the East.
Last minute thought, proceed to Suntec City by bus & MRT.
And another last minute change of transport, by bus straight to Suntec City.
Travelling past where National Stadium used to be, it's now replaced with a construction site for upcoming Sports Hub.
Those were the days outside National Stadium where NDP Rehearsals are held from here to Padang.
Will I participate in NDP 2011? No one knows. (Hopefully NOT. Haha!)

Walking around Suntec City & Marina Square area.
Brought them back to City Hall via Esplanade Xchange, and home sweet home.

11 April 2011 (Today)
After 13 years since my grandfather (mother side) passed away (3 years since both mother side of my great-grandmother & grandmother passed away), this seems like 1st time visiting Mandai Crematorium.
Leading the way to the destination with my mother by the shortest way.
She's used to take a bus to Serangoon, and taxi with her sibilings by taxi. (Obviously, this is a longer route for her only since the rest are staying further away.)

Surprise finding:
- Travelling time taken: 40 minutes maximum
- My Great-Grandfather?! *Huh?*

Then I made my own way to Toa Payoh to find Peter for lunch.
Sometimes, shit happens.
The 2 stores which we wanted to have lunch, are all closed on Mondays. -_-
Went to Golden Mile for late lunch after settling his administrative stuffs.
No for steamboat since I'm gonna have my dinner at home soon.
So another shit happens, it was raining heavily outside. =.=
Lucky got his ride, else I really GG.
