Air Port Terminal 3 on 26 May 2012

- Yap ! Here we have our elderly in the Changi Aviation Gallery to watch the air planes take off and land. Our elderly is very happy to be there at our very own Singapore Airport Terminal 3 :D

-A very kind photographer, volunteer himself to take our photos. Taking good photos are not easy, and it requires a lot of hard work. So thank you for your help :D

-We start off the briefing for volunteers, before we pair up the volunteers with silra elderly. Thank you all for waking up early and contributed your precious time to bring the elderly out for a walk :).

-Our elderly have slight difficulties in boarding the bus on their own, but fear not we are there to help them out. Step by step we support and assist them to board the bus.

-Lots of chit chatting on the journey towards Terminal 3.

-Some elderly walk together with volunteers side by side, others on wheel chairs. All elderly and volunteers are excited and happy to be there. This is the first time our elderly have came to the Singapore airport so they are wandering around with great delight.

-Our dear volunteer Stan have brought food, as and when, to share with elderly and volunteers at no charge. So generous of him :). This come at the right time for our volunteers, specially for those who have not taken their breakfast, way to go Stan ! :D

-After viewing at the gallery, we proceed to the basement 2 for shopping and lunch. As the whole area is airconditioned, you see that everybody is in high spirit, enjoying the cool air :P. During our shopping tour, the elderly brought themselves some food from the supermarket.

- Later part of the day, we even brought our elderly for the sky train ride and they quite enjoy it :).

- Ok....it's time to go home and we all said good bye to Airport Terminal 3:D
