Picnic by the Park

Thank goodness it was only a shortlived downpour on Saturday. Weather was cool, and the crowd was great. & i did the un-me thing to have a picnic. Friends were laughing their heads off when i told them about my plan. Hey, it's not everyday that we get to watch Shakespeare & to enjoy a picnic at the same time. So what the heck........ laugh your buttcheeks off... i'm having the picnic!!! :)

Yup, i brought along a checkered mat. I'm just lacking the straw basket & a sunhat. Reckoned that i would look like a nutcase wearing the hat at night. Jap bento yummies provided the hassle free dinner & considering the humid weather... the all important ice cold beer!! Yes, yes... no picnic is complete without the vegetarian beverage. Just a bummer that I don't have an ice-box... if not can ask ah pui to pack in wine & champagne. WHA!!!! if only....

Shakespeare is always good. Midsummer nite's dream is apt for Fort Canning. Kudos to SRT for the good use of space. The stage setting is good. But costumes.. er.... let's just say some of the clothes make me raise my eyebrows abit & some of the scence were rather cliche.




But who cares! Overall, it's fun, cool (thankfully for the rain) & refreshingly different. Love it!
