Christmas is my favourite time of the year. Now that we are back in Singapore and my baby is old enough to enjoy Christmas., I am on the look out for places that we can go, see and do for our family date. I've gathered some here and will be adding up so don't forget to check back… Also you can inform me if you know one event or place to see this holidays.
1. Christmas Lightup in Orchard Road - This is held every year with a different theme so this is always in our list. The whole road will be dressed up with lights and christmas decor. There will also be competition for the malls so don't forget to go inside each one to see their stunning Christmas display. This year the theme will be "Christmas Magic on Orchard Road" . The razzle dazzle begins at Nov 23, 2013. Mark this date in your calendar.
2. Vivo City - Definitely Vivo City mall at Harbourfront will have again a very big Christmas tree in their rooftop near Marche restaurant. They do this every year and it was nice to stay there to take pictures at night and just to enjoy the breeze. Let your kids play at the water fountains and have a nice dinner after in Marche or King Louis Grill.
