All Trekkies took a group photograph outside the Indonesian restaurant The Rice Table after the lunch.
In celebrating our National Day, Trekkies were encouraged to come in RED and/or WHITE. Some Trekkies even come in Singapore flag tattoo stickers on their hands (Trekkies Techmech and Yvonne), as well as carried along the Singapore flags (Trekkie lhs1701).
