Finished the entire pack at a short outing organized by the childcare that Fitzand attends &#8230; an hour of fun at the Bishan fire station. The kids had lots of fun despite the pretty darn hot morning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"476\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Guess this was his favourite part of the outing (photo above). He was last in queue for this section and thus got to play with it for quite a long while. I got to &#8216;enjoy&#8217; a bit of the &#8216;shower&#8217; when I was going close to take a snap of them. *sniff sniff*<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"476\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fitzand tried to ask for the camera but since the price of Instax film is quite a killer &#8230; I had to turn him down.

Too bad I was restricted to only 10 frames and thus had to hold back my trigger happy habit. Grrrr!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"476\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"474\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Those guys at the fire station were super friendly! I&#8217;m sure everyone went home with lots of memories (especially the kids). Although not part of the activity &#8230; Fitzand got to have a go at sliding down the pole with daddy&#8217;s old trembling hands ready to support him. He&#8217;ll be asking me to bring him to the station again real soon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"479\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These two below were taken by his mommy when I took Fitzand for the &#8216;ride&#8217;. I almost wanted to plant my face in my hands when I saw her trip the shutter before I got Fitzand to look her direction. There goes a shot &#8230; \ud83d\ude41 Hahaha! Well it wasn&#8217;t too bad though. I&#8217;ll let her use my digital cam next time &#8230; to be safe (on the pocket).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/9.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"476\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"475\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After the short outing, I went stock up 3 more packs of the Instax Wide and was a little surprised at the price increase. I do remember buying them at about S$15 to S$16 &#8230; and now it costs about S$19! I sure do hope it won&#8217;t end up as crazy priced as the Polaroids \/ Impossible Project ones &#8230; but then I&#8217;m also very sure there is no way they can do so (increase the Instax prices too much) as there ain&#8217;t no magic in them (as compared to the Polaroids).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">No &#8230; don&#8217;t try ask me use Polaroids (at least for now) because a pack of film can buy me almost a large can of milk powder for Fitzand. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/instax-500af-fire-station-oct-2010\/8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"477\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The itch to shoot instant film came back (again) yesterday and luckily there was my last pack of Instax Wide film in the drawer.
