The Esplanade

Since I'm on leave, this afternoon I bought Mimi out for a walk. At first I was unsure where to go so we just hoped into the train. Along the ride, I suddenly thought of The Esplanade as she has never been there before. As it was a pretty hot day so we dropped by the Raffles City Mall first to cool ourselves before walking over to The Esplanade.
We had to walk through a long underpass before reaching our destination. Inside the underpass was quite a sightseeing also as there are a lot paintings hanging on the wall. There were a couple of exhibitions going on too and a live band (Haagen Dazs Living Room) performing in The Esplanade.
Eventually we end up at a shop that sell bear. Mimi get to choose an orange bear and the sales assistant filled it up with fiber and complete with a jumper and hair bow. I was also told to write a message and stuff it inside the bear. Then it's time to give our bear a name. I asked Mimi what name to give the bear and she thought for a moment before the word "ball" came out of her. Therefore the bear was named Ball. I wonder will it confuse Mimi in future when ask her to give "Ball" a hug and she hug a ball instead of the bear.
