Cranes

I always thought Oliver is fearless. Well, mebbe not fearless, but definitely reckless.

Over the weekend, we realised that he's afraid of cranes. This happened when my mum and sis were with him at the lift landing, which had a good view of the Pinnacle@Duxton and the overhanging cranes were swinging atop the half-completed blocks. He was terrified when the cranes started to swing. I brought Oliver out for a walk yesterday and again he was fixated with the cranes and kept clinging onto me, even though we were at the basketball court (normally he would be distracted by the action on the court).

Perhaps Oliver has 6th sense, with the recent spate of toppling cranes in Singapore and NY, he has every reason to fear them.
