Had a barbecue today at Uncle Yiye's place, so we were to leave the house at 1.45pm to set off to his house. Before going there, we went to Shop 'n' Save because Aunt Wanyin had to buy diapers for baby Claira, so along the way we bought a bag of chips to prepare for the barbecue. Unfortunately there was just so much food for the barbecue that we left the chips alone. Ha, so much for wanting us to try wasabi-flavoured chips...
After hanging around at Uncle Yiye's condominium abode we went downstairs for a swim. Boy, that swim was dangerous even though it's still a 1.2m flat pool - we found a stray orange plastic container meant for a Super Soaker floating on the pool out of nowhere, and I almost slipped into the water because of a dumb transparent glass marble at the pool floor!
Anyways, we hung around the pool for a while more until the barbecue started, since for the rest of the day we had nothing else to do. Then we had this problem here: the delivery for the barbecue food didn't arrive until 6pm, when the scheduled time was supposed to be 5.30pm. So, we started behind time and the fire was started. While trying to dispose of the excess burning material, we accidentally burnt a hole through the dustbin bag - luckily for us, that bin was made of fireproof plastic so we didn't damage any property. Wow, even soft drinks can put out fires, man...
Despite that, it was still worthwhile the trip anyway - we went back with full stomachs, and excess food to take home too.
