March 2018 school holidays

This March, we didn't go away coz I was busy at work and couldn't take too many days' leave. But we did spend some quality time together as a family.

Day 1: We went to the Seletar Animal Farmway Resort.

Nadine enjoyed feeding the rabbits and guinea pigs, while Aaron was totally freaked out by the pigeons. He clung on to Daddy all the time, and wouldn't venture further into the farm. So we didn't even take any photos of ourselves. Just this beautiful peacock who decided to show off his tail.

(Subsequently, in April, Aaron's school went on a learning journey to the Resort! Perhaps it's the presence of his classmates (peer pressure) - he ventured around and saw the rest of the farm!)

Day 2: We went into JB, to Paradigm Mall. 

It was a great place for a family outing. The kids went ice-skating first. The skating rink is so much better than the one at Kallang. The ice is cold and dry, and it was not crowded, giving the kids lots of space to skate around.

After ice-skating, we went for a massage, before getting a yummy lunch at 汤师父, we went to watch Black Panther. So much cheaper to watch movies in Malaysia. They have different prices for adults, children and senior citizens. With the currency exchange, it's really a fraction of what we'd have to pay in Singapore.

After the movie, we shopped around a bit, before having dinner at Kinsahi. Again, a fraction of what we'd have paid for a nice Japanese dinner in Singapore. Such a satisfying day trip, spoilt only by the jam to and fro the customs. I think next time, we'll go by Tuas Second Link!

For the rest of the holiday, Daddy brought the kids out, and they also had a play date at their friends' house. No overseas vacation, but I think they enjoyed themselves nonetheless.
