Kite flying
11:00 AM on Monday 18 March 2019
We went to Marina Barrage for kite flying. Esther and I got a simple and cheap kite from SKP and that worked really well. Later Pauline got a much bigger one from the shop at Marina Barrage and that had a much longer line that allowed the kit to fly really far.

Pauline, Esther and I had a really nice walk at the Flower Dome. There was a Sakura Matsuri Floral Display going on and it was really quite beautiful. Here are some pictures.
The last piece
08:26 AM on Thursday 07 March 2019
I opened up a box of chocolates recently to share amongst the office folks. This is what is left after a day or two.

MacBook Air
09:00 PM on Saturday 16 February 2019
Got a new MacBook Air in my favorite space grey as Esther needed a laptop for her robotics classes. So I passed her my Thinkpad X1 Yoga. The Thinkpad was well made and well designed. But Windows 10 is still a confusing and incoherent mess compared to MacOS. The tablet mode of the Yoga was cool but I ...

Possible explanations started flashing. Maybe they gave a freebie? Maybe I accidentally opted in for an add on? O ...
