Holiday 2

Dearest Skyler,

We got up fairly early today. Mama was feeling cold. The aircon was turned off but the cold in the building still seeped in.

When we were awake enough, we went out to Marina Square for breakfast. We walked around before deciding on Swensen's. It was a mistake. :p The food was quite bad tasting. :( Oh well ... You were still quite sleepy so you weren't really all that interested in eating. But the manageress aunty was very nice - she gave you a balloon and a poodle balloon sculpture. :D

We picked up a bit more food on our walk back to the hotel.

After we got back, we caught a nap as all of us were very sleepy still.

You woke us up asking for another bath tub experience. Thus, we all got up and prepared the bath for you.

After the bath, we had some food then we checked out.

It was a very pleasant experience all in all. You seemed to have enjoyed yourself. :D

We drove over to Suntec City after that. Mama went for a haircut. Papa and you walked Mama to the salon before we went to visit the bunnies and fish. We bought a packet of fish food as you wanted to feed them but there were so many people feeding the fish that they weren't interested in eating at all! Papa didn't want to waste any more food as there was lots floating into the drainage. Thus, we kept the rest of your food so that we can feed other fish that need it another time.

After that, you wanted to visit the fountain. We went there and they were allowing people to touch the water so Papa let you do that. We had to wash our hands immediately after that. Papa wanted to bring you for Milo but you wanted to tell Mama that you'd touched the water so we went back to the salon. After you'd told Mama about it, we went back down to get a cup of Milo. We went to the KFC first as it was emptier but the whole place smelled of the food so we went to McDonald's but it was so crowded that there wasn't a place to sit so we ended up at Burger King.

After we got our Milo, Papa let you drink it but you weren't really interested. You wanted food instead but there wasn't anything that you could eat. Then, you wanted a crown so Papa got you one. After fitting it on you, you wanted to show Mama so we went all the way back to the salon once more. Mama gave you a packet of biscuits to eat.

After we'd shown Mama your crown, we headed up to the Kids' Zone to take a look. They were having some animal related activities. They had a few fish tanks and some cages with bunnies, hamsters and mice.

We tried to look for the free popcorn, candy floss and balloons. They'd moved the stalls to another place. When we found them you didn't want anything except a balloon. So, we got you the blue one you wanted.

We then went to look for a place for you to sit down to have the biscuits that Mama'd given you. There was a space on a bench so we sat there to eat.

Papa was so happy to see the bench! You'd refused to walk on your own since we got to Suntec! Papa'd been carrying you almost the whole time we'd been there! Papa's back and shoulders were totally aching by then!

After having the biscuits, we went back to the salon once more to check on Mama's progress. Mama was almost done by then. We waited for her to be done so we could go off together.

We headed back to our car to get the skatescooter that we'd bought so that we could exchange it. It was not working well as the wheels were not turning smoothly.

We then shopped in Carrefour for stuff for Baby Mei-mei. You'd fallen asleep by then. Thus, Papa had to carry you while Mama shopped. Papa was really tired by then as Papa had carried you for so long.

After we'd paid for our purchases, we went to take a look at the cars they had on show at the atrium. Then we headed back to our car to get to Popo's for dinner.

We met Bubu and Moh-moh there too. And Gong-gong is still in Singapore. You had lots of fun playing with them all.

And when we left, you had your usual ride around the carpark in Bubu's car.

By the time we got home, you'd fallen asleep as it'd been a long and tiring day. And by the time we put you to bed after washing up, it was way past midnight. Oh well ...

What a weekend!

Papa and Mama love you!
