📷#MarketFriday Market for tiles | 砖市场 😎(by @ace108)
Early in April, my wife and I went with our interior designer to look for tiles for our renovation. I had been to their other outlet at Balestier Road and didn't about their other store at Ubi Avenue 3 before.
四月初，我，太太和我们的室内设计师一起去寻找我们装修要用的瓷砖。 我曾经去过马里士他路的另一家商店，之前并没有去过Ubi Avenue 3的这家。
🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.
🎶让大家继续读的时候，欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首，名为“春天”。
