The weather in Singapore is so hot (and mosquitoes too) that camping is usually not very feasible here. <br /><br />I am watching Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves on HBO now. My goodness, what a dork Kevin Costner is as Robin Hood! They will be playing the Russell Crowe version next. What a contrast! :)Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-51200379790246414282011-05-22T18:54:32.399+08:002011-05-22T18:54:32.399+08:00Even as we type, dear Helene, I have already found...Even as we type, dear Helene, I have already found a Lakshmi in my stash :) and yes, I think next to Ganesha, Lakshmi is my favourite Indian deity so tell Polly to treasure her :). <br /><br />Also, I was looking at your Kali and I really like the intricacy. The statue is made in Thailand and I think the Thai people made her wear a very benevolent expression. <br /><br />I am quite excited at making an architect's studio for the next house, Indian style ;) Thank you, dear friend for the inspiration :).Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-23296957962237266112011-05-22T18:48:20.763+08:002011-05-22T18:48:20.763+08:00En realidad, Virginia?

Because my sis was in architecture school in the uni, I too have many architect friends :). Although Architecture was my 3rd choice for uni (we have 4 choices, if we don't get our 1st choice, we go to our 2nd or 3rd or 4th), it was the choice made with love. The 1st and 2nd were what my parents wanted. :)<br /><br />Even today, I am still interested in the subject of architecture. I think that's why I love dollhouses with the passion of a volcano :). It encompasses architecture. <br /><br />And yes, the houses open but I will have to be an ant to be able to build anything for the inside.:)<br /><br />You know, at various points of time, me and my sisters have thought of migrating to another country but its the family that's keeping us here. Thank goodness Singapore is such a small country :) so we can still live"near" each other no matter where.Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-14733961895393172011-05-22T03:41:06.586+08:002011-05-22T03:41:06.586+08:00These are so cool.

After reading your post, now, I wish that I had bought it. :)<br /><br />How sweet of Helene to send you these. :)<br /><br />We've often gone camping with my husbands entire family and have quite a compound fo assorted tents and what not. We call it Chimplex Complex. ;)dalesdreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02304656921813405064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-53260326577408140642011-05-21T15:13:47.764+08:002011-05-21T15:13:47.764+08:00Too bad it turned out to be a Kali and not a Laksh...Too bad it turned out to be a Kali and not a Lakshmi, I hope you find one for your Rollas!

Do we all dream that dream? Some days we want to have the comfort and familiarity... but others we want the anonymity and independence! My family is "clustered" in areas very far from me.... but they used to be clustered near me.... they have been migrating to the Southwest and the Northwest of this huge country! But I don't want to go where they now live... so there is a very big distance of Thousands of miles between us! Alas... the common neighborhood is such a lovely dream!<br />And Helene is SUCH a wonderful friend! Those little houses are so sweet! and they OPEN UP!!!! As you know.... I love architecture.... my Daddy is an architect.... I would not be able to choose a favorite house.... and I wish we could relocate to Sans Suburbia and share our creative mini worlds!!!<br />As for traveling..... you have a welcome mat at MY door any time you are in this part of the world! :)Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-45516226693680474722011-05-19T00:30:34.199+08:002011-05-19T00:30:34.199+08:00Thank you Kathy (WLW) :).Thank you Kathy (WLW) :).Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-85692650528426717102011-05-19T00:30:06.146+08:002011-05-19T00:30:06.146+08:00Hi Norma Soulet! :) These houses are quite unusual...Hi Norma Soulet! :) These houses are quite unusual aren't they?
