A Day @ Sue n Cecilia's

it took 10 years but finally, we were able to make it at Sue n Cecilia's home, sweet home once more for a whole day of fun - chatting, admiring their collections, hanging out, and a Japanese dinner to boot.... and what a fun day it was!!!
First, David and I took the MRT at the Domestic Airport, where I had a chance meeting with Harlem Yu, a Taiwanese star/personality.... of course I took a photo with him!!! so am off to a good start already.... then we rode the MRT to meet up with Juliana and head on to the city of Wanfang where Sue n Cecilia picked us up at the station and drove us to their Sweet Home - just a few minutes away....

Upon entering, one cannot help but be soooooo overwhelmed, my how their home has changed over the years.... so much more cozier... and the collections have grown... and to my DELIGHT, they were all sprinkled about the rooms.... of course, I went to ADMIRE the Vinyl toys first and foremost.... (Sue btw, has been great enough to help Juliana & I add more to our Bearbrick collections... she is our NET AUCTION CONNECTION!) Bearbricks, Oli Bears, Peko & Poko, and DOLLIES Galore!!! Then it was time to admire their purchases from all their travels.... ornate knick knacks from Czech, Italy, Germany, France, etc... all of them just as WONDERFUL as the next - and each one, has a story to boot - just as they should be... I also got to admire Sue's collection of TRADING CARDS - mostly ALIAS as we are both BIIIIG FANS of trhis show.... I never even knew they existed so seeing them in person was a SPECIAL TREAT!!! We got to see other collections - of the JEWELRY sort.... would have taken photos of them too but thought it was much more personal.... so will just keep them FRESH in my mind for now....

Then we all headed on down to the neighborhood Japanese Restaurant for some dinner.... just as cozy as the ones you go to in Tokyo - so for a couple of hours there, it felt like I was back in Japan... Then it was back at the girls' home for some tea and a bit more chatting fest.... it was already close to 10PM by the time we headed back to catch the MRT... and if it was not too late, I sure would have loved to have stayed even longer... Oh well, there is always a next time - and hopefully, it wont be another 10 years in between... hahahahahaha
