A TRIP TO CHANGI AIRPORT

We decided to make a short stopover at the ever famous & efficient, one of the world's best airport - Changi International Airport. We brought Ryan here once, when he was much younger but this time round he appreciated the trip more coz he he seems to understand that the gigantic metal "creatures" on the runways were actually big, big planes.

As he calls them "copters" (short for helicopters), some passer-bys must be wondering why we teach our kid that aeroplanes are called helicopters but to heck with them. If my two year old son wants to call them copters, then copters they are. As long as he loves them & wish to call it whatever he wants to, I simply can't be bothered that people might think I am teaching my son the "wrong" thing. Who cares what they think?! If Ryan wants to call planes "copters", I'll be damned if I am gonna tell my son he is wrong, just to amuse those narrow-minded asses. So there!


Hhmmm ... his "wonderful" poses just keeps growing, doesn't it!

A sweet, saccharine smile for Mummy!


Papa, you hold the bag while I see the copters.

A wistful glance at the planes.

Concentrating hard on the aeroplanes taking off the runway.

Reaching high!

I don't want to go yet, Papa!!!
When we were done admiring the planes it dawned to me that it would be quite a while before we can take Ryan on board a plane. Eventhough, hubby & me have been to parts of Malaysia & Australia, it will be some time before we can afford the costs of travelling by plane, as a family of three. I really hope it will be soon because I want to take my son for a ride on a plane, one that he will love & enjoy. My dream is to bring him to a Disneyland, if not the one in the USA at least the one in Hong Kong or Japan. Well, I can hope & wish ... that it will be soon!
