Before the school holiday began, we had asked the children to choose one place of recreation they would like to go. Unsurprisingly, Deborah chose a place where she could play water - Kallang Wave Water Park. However, we were there for 2 consecutive Saturdays, so we decided to look for an alternative.
Initially, I had wanted to re-visit the Adventure Cove at Resorts World Sentosa. But daddy was against the idea as the entrance fee (after discount) was $25 per person, which would be $100 for a family of 4. Even the children's ticket was going to cost $26 (before discount).
So I googled for alternative water parks and found it at Jurong East Swimming Complex. Entrance fees was $2 for adults and $1 for children and it is unlimited play time. So with the huge price difference, daddy wouldn't say no.
It houses similar facilities as the Adventure Cove - a lazy river, a wave pool, 3 water slides, and a children's water playground. Unfortunately, the 3 water slides were under maintenance. So we spent most of the time at the lazy river. I can't even remember how many rounds we went. Haha.
We didn't take any pictures of ourselves as even I had joined in the fun!
After playing for almost two and a half hours, both daddy and I had sunburnt. Thankfully, the children wore their new long-sleeve swimsuits that Daddy purchased recently from Perth, so they were spared from the sun rays on their bodies.
After washing up, our tummies started to rumble and the kids started to grumble! So we headed to nearby Raffles Marina for lunch. It is a place that daddy frequents with his business associates but it was my first time there. It was a place I had heard so much about from many people.
Daddy advised we should arrive at 1pm or so, in order to avoid the lunch crowd. Daddy was right. When we arrived, the lunch crowd was lesser and we managed to sit at a table overlooking the sea, yachts and sky.
Of course, we were famished and didn't waste any time to order our food. I had this lamb briyani that was absolutely tasty and satisfying. The lamb drumstick was as big as my fist! No regrets choosing this to fill my empty stomach.
It was too hot to take a stroll under the harsh afternoon sun. So we had just a few photos and decided to head home.
