Hokkaido - Aftermath

Summary of itinerary: Touchdown at Changi Airport, DFS shopping, go home, sleep, work

~03:30 Breakfast
Didn't get much sleep with a baby bawling for the whole duration. Fortunately, I was tired enough to get some sleep, just not the rejuvenating deep slumber. Maybe I would have been better off sitting at the 8th row :(

No hard and fast time for getting up. Just get out of the place by 10am. Having stayed up late last night to eat, we needed more sleep. I really don't think we can make it on time...

Hokkaido Day 2 - 盛夏,花与果

Summary of itinerary: Furano Winery, Campana Rokkatei, Farm Tomita, Furano Cheese Factory, Dinner, Sleep

07:45 - Rise & Shine
I never knew what the shine in rise and shine means, but anyway...

I didn't sleep well. It began when I was awoken by what seemed like an alarm. Was it the door, fridge, what? Tried to get somebody to check it out, but they were all sound asleep. O well, I hope the place doesn't explode.

Zzz... ... ...

Hokkaido Day 1 - 千里迢迢

Summary of itinerary: SIN -> KIX, KIX -> CTS, CTS -> Furano, Check-in Apartment, Dinner, Sleep

06:30 - Breakfast time
All that noise. Wakey wakey, time for breakfast with sun-rise. But the sky was clear and the rays were piercingly-glaring, so the passenger at the window shut the blinds. Aww.

Top L: Vegetable frittata with grilled veal sausage, tomato and potatoes
R: Japanese breakfast of grilled teriyaki fish, Japanese omelette, seasonal vegetable and steamed rice
Both came with fruits, cake, bread roll, butter, jam and beverage. Juice for me as usual as I intended to attempt sleeping again.

Here We Come, Hokkaido!

Really suay. Got tricky issue to investigate and taking so much of my time. Made worse when my concluded root cause was unexpected and unbelievable. Simulated it and attempted to convince my colleagues ad infinitum. Did all I could. All they had to do is to believe me.

And This Is Crazy

7/7
While our parents were holidaying in Beijing, the kids checked out the GSS in Orchard. I can't remember if we actually bought anything during the sale, but we bought into something entirely different.
