7 Aug 2012 - Family Outing to Gardens by the Bay

We took the MRT to Gardens by the Bay. It was a long journey and halfway through, Charlene started throwing tantrums by threatening to kick herself out of her pram. Luckily there were seats so I sat down and carried her. 

I am glad I listened to Teacher Adeline to go there in the evening. We reached around 5pm when the sun is not scorching and we could take some nice pictures. Besides the "super trees", there were plants and flowers and objects typical of the ethnic garden. Malay garden, Chinese garden, Indian garden, Colonial garden and more. It was a large place with open spaces, nice scenery and fresh air. Charlene did not complain so we think she enjoy herself too. 

We did not want to spend money going into the conservatory domes and the bridge. But the free areas are already good for us. We saw 5 couples having their wedding photo shoot. And also a live shooting of a cooking show. 

We stayed to watch the night show; 10 mins music and light show featuring 9 super trees. Charlene was obviously paying attention to the show and watching the lights. She must have been processing so much so that she got so tired and fell asleep on the way home. 

Overall, it was a great family outing and we enjoyed ourselves very much.
