They came and they left...

Sigh...so P & J came on Friday night, and they left tonight. What a short trip! What did we do?

Seeing P eating Chilli crab with her hands and trying to crack the crab claw the wrong way at first
Seeing J actually trying some seafood
Seeing both P & J for the first time in 2.5 years??

2. Clarke Quay (Brewerkz)

Ordering samplers for all 12 types of beers at Brewerkz and trying them
Knowing that only five of them are drinkable and P likes the yucky fruity one
