December Holidays, Sunday 6th 2020







 Jurong Lake Gardens.

Yup, that was where we were last Sunday. It was cool morning and we spent about 2 hours. Consisting of leisurely walking and eating. It is a magnificent place to be. Its free to go in.

We parked at the north car park knowing that its the nearest car park to the cafe. The cafe is halal certified and served very hearty kampomg fare, with some dishes given a modern twist. We ordered nasi lemak, some cupcakes and drinks. 

We continued walking after that but this time towards the car park, albeit taking a different route. Stopped by the water play area. Highly recommended.

December holidays. Saturday 5th December

Can't travel. Because of the pandemic. And also borders are closed between many countries.
Decided to do a "exploremyland" type of holiday activities.
Did a soft start last weekend and it does looked good. Especially when I am more mobile.
Wifey still working, the eldest still schooling and the helper is finishing her exams. So a soft start it was to be.
Decided to start the day at one of the civil service clubs where it's open to the public, for a fee. Only allowed an hour in the pool. We were issued with coloured wrist bands and they will announce as to when our time is up. From what I gather, the timing is between a quarter past the hour to the next quarter past of the next hour.
For example, 9.15 to 10.15. If you missed the quota, you have to wait for the next hour.
My two sons, wife and her mom enjoyed swimming in the wave pool and they rented a buoy to go around the lazy river. 
Pretty soon, our time was up. Mind you, if you have a 7 year old kid in tow, the drying up, the showering and the packing to get back to the car would take longer than you would expect. Luckily I was ready for it. Sat near the vending machines where coconut, actual coconut were dispense. Sweet juice!
It was a good morning spent!
