Downtime during the May Holidays

We spent some rare quiet family time on May Day.

Just us three, a picnic basket, a picnic mat, a soccer ball, the clear blue sky and a gentle breeze.

We were at Le Meredian Hotel in SheShan , one of the places that we keep heading to whenever there is a 3-day weekend.

Lunch was some fried beehoon, baked chicken wings, salsa cum chips and a chocolate cake. Really yummy.

We were able to lie quietly and observe how lovely the trees were and how pretty it was when the sunlight shone through. It was thoroughly therapeutic. Try it the next time you need some quiet time.
