On Saturday morning, it was very bright & sunny, thus i told Adrian that we should bring the children to the Civil Service Club for a swim. He agreed and off we we went to Bukit Batok CSC. Anthea and Anders were all excited when i told them to change into their swimming costumes.
We reached the pool around 10 plus and we were in time - the wave pool started almost immediately when we went in the water. Anthea was so happy and we rented a rubber tube to sit on while the waves was on. Anders was still a bit frightened of the waves so he was on safe side of the pool all the while..hehe.
The wave lasted almost a good half and hour, during this time, father & daughter had so much fun playing with the waves. Seeing them enjoyed so much reminded me of the Sunway trip. This is a mini version of "sunway lagoon"...haha.
After the wave stopped, Anthea and Anders went to the playgroud pool which had slides and waterguns. They had so much fun there as well, shooting the water at adrian.
We played for a good 1 hour before we stopped to shower and headed home for lunch. On our way home, Anthea told Adrian that she wants to go Goat Farm next week and Adrian agreed readily. He then told me that we should plan more Saturdays outings like this for the children.
Secretly i told myself : yeah, all these while,i wanted to do all these Family Outings but most of them time it was because of him that we can't make it. Since now that i have his blessings, i will put on 5th gear for the weekends... : P
Dinner was at Swissotel Merchant Court with the extended families. My MIL invited her brother and sister's families to join us for the buffet dinner. As usual, Anthea and Anders were looking forward to meet their Uncle MK and they had a good time playing Hide & seek, catching etcs by the river. The families had a good time sharing all their travelling updates, especially for Hokkaido.
There was a wedding banquet at the hotel Ballroom and Anthea saw 3 pretty flower girls and she told Cherry that she wanted to be her flower girl at their wedding. Terence and Cherry will be getting married next May 2008 and their wedding banquet will be held in the same hotel.
Today Adrian is on his Sunday work duty and i am home with Anthea & Anders. My eldest brother called and asked us to join for lunch together with him and my parents. He brought us to http://www.xinwang.com.sg/ @ Marina Square. It was a good choice.
We ordered few dishes to try and the noodles dishes were very good. I had a cup of "yuan-yang" and it was as good as the one that i drank in Hong Kong cafe. For dessert, we had the "ah-ballings" with ginger drink and seasame paste. I Loved the one with ginger because it has the taste of my mom's "tang yuan" ginger drink. The seasame paste is a bit too diluted.
After lunch, we walked around Marina Square and i discovered that there are now so many new eateries and shops there. I told myself that i must take a day off and slowly explored the place, without children in tow..hee.
We left for home after a quick purchased of a notebook bag at JL sale. On the way home, dage even went by to the famous Rochor Beancurd to packed the beancurd and he bought 2 boxes for us. We reached home about 3.30 pm.
We had dinner with our parents in law and Louis family at Akira Japanese Restaurant which is now located at the Link Hotel, 50 Tiong Bahru Road, Link Hotel #01-01 Singapore 168733Tel : 6738-6221 ). This restaurant was one of our family usual hangout when it was located near Orchard road.
Another relaxing weekends with the families.
