Gracia First Bicycle Ride With Dad

Gracia got to experience for the first time the force of speed when daddy brought her to East Coast Park (ECP) last Thursday for a bicycle ride. Mummy had again forwarded her tuition one day in advance so daddy had to spent the 1 an a half hour with his little princess.

After walkiing around the park for a while, daddy walk passed one of the bicycle renting vendor and saw some bike with baby seat attached. And daddy is tempted to give it a try and see if she like it. Unfortunately for both of us, it's a stressful experience. She cried immedialy less then 1km ride away from the bicycle booth, daddy had to stop and try a few time to gently tell her it's fun and safe and she don't have to be afraid. But she doesn't listen and when ever i started peddling, she'll cry like there's no tomorrow. After 15min of crying and consoling, daddy decided to give up and not trumatise her too much to avoid letting her getting phobia of riding a bicycle in the future.

I actually brought my camera with me and intend to ask someone to take picture of us riding bicycle since this was the first time for Gracia. Unfortunately, handeling a crying and fearful Gracia and still have to pushed the bike slowly back to the booth seems too much for another camera shot. (So no picture taken)

HEE HEE!!!
But daddy managed to take some tearful picture of her at the playground outside Mcdonale. See how reddish and wattery her eyes really is....... wahahahaha...
