Thank you for 2011

2011 has certainly been a year of self-discovery and I am thankful for my circle of friends who have been on this journey with me.

Windows On the Park

Pre-xmas Lunch - 23 Dec 2011


On 23 December 2011, I brought mum out for lunch at Window on the Park at Holiday Inn Park view. There was a 1-1 promotion, hence at $58++ it was a good deal. The place was packed with people. The spread has improved and we had an enjoyable time there.
