Our princess is too small to cycle. But she did not intend to let this slow down her mobility. Mummy brought her a scooter for her birthday !
Our girl is the only rose among her brothers, so she play with guns, knife, trains and cars from young. On the other hand, we always see the boys playing with the doll house and cooking set !
Singapore Navy Diving Unit is one of the coolest uniit in the Navy (maybe SAF). Last Sun, Daddy got an invitation to visit the Naval divers of Singapore. It was an opportunity to showcase our elite divers’ capabilities to grassroots leaders.
Singapore Navy Diving Unit (NDU) is a special task force under Singapore Navy. Daddy is very curious to find out what are the attributes of a frogman (NDU’s mascot is a muscular frog), and their motto is “Nothing Stands In Our Way” !
We get to see divers perfect drown-proofing techniques. This survival skills allow divers to stay afloat longer under hostile situation.

Trainers will rip off your oxygen tanks ! Water confidence is a must for every trainee (also called tadpole)
After viewing the divers behind glass, the visitors got an opportunity to ogle at the divers. Six packs, dimples, suave, and yandao. All the ladies were beaming π
Train hard, train Safe. We sweat in peacetime, so we bled less during wartime.
Safety is of paramount concern, even for our elites.
The highlight of our tour must be the “Rigid-hulled inflatable boat” (RGIB) ride. These boats are packed with 480Bhp horsepower, and allow our special forces to cut across rough seas at up to 80kph.
After a few hairpin turns and drifts, we Wanted more! Nevermind if our hair is messy π
Gulf of Sembawang, and we came close to Singapore Causeway π
Hong Peng is clearly impressed.
Our boating experience may be a joy ride, but our Divers face pirates and choppy seas in the Gulf of Aden. (Click for some rough-sea video.)
Back on land, we got a tour of NDU’s equipments. Did you know about the indoor 25m range at NDU? Cool, no more Butt party under the hot sun.
Oohh. Wow.. High tech weaponry and systems. We are impressed.
Thank you Mindef PR for the invitation, we had an adrenalin filled Sunday morning. More action photos can be found at SengkangBabies fanpage.
