First stop was Steven Drive formerly knowned as Steven Road
No no no they were not from drainage Dept inspecting the drain.
The lady in red was not their Inspectors. She is Syifaa' my grand daughter. The smiley is a prince. No no no not Prince of Egypt...not that TV one.
Rather they gathered there to rewind their memory of their nostalgic kampong house.
My wife and her sister were born there. So they bring their mother back to the place wehere they were born and where their mother brought them up. They had many memories to tell us. Although, we were kind of blurr like sotong, we somehow still manage to swallow as we do know of that place at Steven Drive. Its in Singapore by the way.
After a long chit chat at Steven drive we moved on to Ba' Alwi Mosque for the midday prayer, Solat Zuhor. It is one of the old mosque that had been around perhaps for hundreds of years.
Again this lady in red is not the official of the mosque.
From Vivo City we drove up to the Mount Faber, AYE, ECP, KPE and out at Sengkang.

Mom looked happy to have the oppurtunity to re-visit the past. This mosque is one of the most popular mosque in Singapore and it is near their kampong house.
After prayer we drove off on a leisure car tour for Mom. I bring them along the old roads via Sixth Avenue, Jalan Haji Alias, Coronation Road, Bin Tong Road, Holland Road and North Buona Vista Road.

We stopped for lunch at Chicken Rice Shop in Vivo City. It was crowded 'giler'. Giler is a punk word for mad. Meaning crowded like mad. Difficult to get empty parking lot. It was Saturday, and its a Family Day every Saturday, it seems, at Vivo City.
From Vivo City we drove up to the Mount Faber, AYE, ECP, KPE and out at Sengkang.
In Sengkang we stopped for afternoon prayer, Solat Asar, at Al-Mawaddah Mosque. This new mosque was opened in May 2009. It has a reputation of a Evironmentally Friendly Mosque, for water and energy savings.

From the mosque we drop in at a brother's house in Sengkang.
In Sengkang Mom get to visit one of her younger grand daughter.

We prayed the evening prayer, Solat Maghrib , in Woodlands and then call it a day.
