Fun @ East Coast Park

It is Deepavali holiday today. Yesterday evening we told Anthea & Anders that we will go to the beach for cycling, subject to weather condition.

Early morning, it was raining quite heavily and I thought that the trip will need to be cancelled. However around 9.30 am the sky started to clear a little and I told Adrian : “let’s go ahead, if it rains, we will have lunch there. At least we make the effort.”

After breakfast, we changed the children and started our journey to the East Coast Park. Adrian noted that KPE (kallang – paya leba expressway) is operational and he tried using the new expressway. It was a good & smooth ride since traffic was smooth and few cars on the KPE.


We reached the East Coast Park in a record time..haha. Most of th carparks were full, this include the Mcdonald's CP. Luckily the carpark near Burger King was still quite empty.



We rented a bicycle for 4 person and to be honest - it was not an easy task to balance such a bicycle. Thru this somehow, i related it to our family - Balancing our LifeStyle as a family unit. IT is not easy, there are many obstacles ahead ( pedestrains crossing, roller bladers and other cyclist.) We need to balance well to get through all these.. hehe. We managed well for almost 1 hour. Many passer-by was looking at us and amazed that we were 4 on the bicycle.



After cycling, i brought Anthea and Anders to BK for their lunch while Adrian jogged around the park.


Anthea and Anders were very keen to go and played by the beach, so after lunch, we had about 30 minutes of fun playing by the beach. Both of them were really happy.


After a quick shower, we headed home via ECP - KPE - PIE - CTE...haha. What a way to go ...: P


The children had their afternoon nap while i baked my muffins. Dinner was at my In-laws house. Simple meal and nice dessert.


It has been a wonderful outing and we are really thankful for such nice weather.
