Oola's birthday- Dec 26,2005

The prata man came to Oola's house to make prata for her birthday party. But Eleanor and I started eating the otah even before the party started. Unlike the last bday party where Eleanor and I ate all the otah before the guest arrived, this time we gorged ourselves and barely made a dent in the endless bags of otah. Tebe ate 20 otahs and got boric acid poisoning. I think I only ate 10. Had to leave room for the satay and the prata and curries.
That evening we went to the Night Safari- not as I remembered it. Last time I went was years ago with Adrian. Back then it was quiet , fun and romantic and the tapirs would walk right along side the bus. Now touirst are herded like cattle onto buses- it's crazy crowded and full of screaming kids. The tapirs are probably scared off by all the noise.
We went for a late dinner at Lavender food court-Ordered everything- wonton mee, popiah, hokkien mee, carrot cake... the No Sign Board duck rice was great.
