Dear Diary,

I just came back to Singapore from my trip to Kumamoto. I had so much fun there that I’m bursting with excitement now. I made so many fond memories. Let me tell you the highlights.

I took my family to Kumamoto Zoo. Yes, Singapore Zoo is the best, but I saw a polar bear there! There were other interesting animals too, such as golden squirrel monkeys. I also met my wife’s college friend and her sons. Our children rode on the rides and ran everywhere together. It was fun watching them bond.

My son and I spent some quality time at the indoor playground of a shopping mall. He put the toys on top of one another and jumped on them. Sometimes, he fell but it was okay. He never hurt himself. I just thought it was so nice how he played to his heart’s content.

The most marvellous part of this trip was exploring AMU Plaza by myself. A statue of Luffy caught my attention. As a One Piece fan, I felt overjoyed. I posed with the statue and bought many souvenirs.

I definitely brought back many fond memories with me. I kept thinking about all the experiences I gained. I found peace and joy in Kumamoto! This trip taught me many lessons, so I can’t wait to return again.

Cheers, Me
