Role Playing at BABYBOSS


welcome to BABYBOSS

so what is babyboss? well, its a indoor theme park/playground whereby kids can spend a whole day (really!!) to have fun role playing various jobs (e.g. pilot, doctor, fireman, policeman etc.) for each job they participate (usually 20-30 mins), they will then be paid a salary of $10 babyboss dollar. 

they can then use the money earned to change for gifts or participate some hands-on cooking session.tickets are NT$900 (kid) and NT$500 (adult). you can't leave your kid there and go off shopping. adult supervision is required.

Taipei for family (with kids)

i've visited taipei twice (in 2008 & 2009). for this time, its a family holiday with the kids during the year-end school holiday.



21.11.10 Love in Paris

yes, finally in paris.  you simply just feel love is in the air.  the streets, sights, architecture is simply stunning, and with the night view, is hard for anyone not to fall in love with this lovely place (except maybe the proud and unfriendly parisians spoil the day).



well, i was there in late nov, so it does look pretty gloomy in the day (its raining too!!)

1st stop was the Avenue des Champs-Élysées is a prestigious avenue in Paris, France. with its cinemas, cafés, luxury specialty shops and clipped horse-chestnut trees, the Avenue des Champs-Élysées is one of the most famous streets in the world.  very pretty indeed.



20.11.10 Paris here we come

today will be a whole day of drive to paris.  depart swiss at 8am. long drive.....stop for nature's call, drive, stop for lunch, drive.....

finally, we arrived in france.  slowly, we enter paris city :)


as time permit, we rushed for the river cruise on river seine (530pm depart). wow...we made it just in time at 525pm for boarding.  how lucky.

19.11.10 Lucerne

after Mount Pilatus, lets proceed to Lucerne.



Wiki info: The Lion Monument or the Lion of Lucerne, is a sculpture in Lucerne, Switzerland, designed by Bertel Thorvaldsen. It commemorates the Swiss Guards who were massacred in 1792 during the French Revolution, when revolutionaries stormed the Tuileries Palace in Paris, France.

19.11.10 Mount Pilatus

after a good rest yesterday, woke up and open the window.  my room is facing this mountain. apparently, there is a restaurant/cafe at mountain top. the star is shining.

rise and shine...the view outside (on the streets).  its quiet in the morning.  peaceful.
Morning view of Interlaken (small town) from my hotel room.
today, we will leave interlaken.  first stop will be mount pilatus.  afternoon, we will proceed to lucerne.

View of the lake (along the way)

18.11.10 Top of Europe – Swiss Alps

we are going up Jungfraujoch, often called the “Top of Europe” which at an elevation of 3,454 meters (11,332 ft) above sea level.  since it’s mountain, we finally ‘changed’ our outerwear to a set of thicker winter jacket.
