Sea Gypsy & Gardens by the Bay

Adam was lucky enough to spend 4 days at Sea Gypsy, in Malaysia a few weeks ago as a chaperone for the 4th grade field trip. Upon arrival, the staff told the chaperones, "you literally have no responsibilities while you're here." So they spent time checking in on the kids, involving themselves in some activities and doing some relaxing. Looks like a super rough place to relax...

Mosquito nets over the beds


And this is what we refer to as "glamping" ... camping with glamour. No air cons, no frills, mosquito nets and the sound of the ocean as you sleep.  

Last Sunday we took the boys to a new kids' park here in Singapore. I visited Gardens by the Bay with my mom last year, but the boys have never been. Gardens by the Bay is okay, nothing too impressive for me. But then again, I'm from the land of greenery in the Pacific Northwest. That said, the kids' park was a $10million dollar project (does Singapore do anything cheap??) so it was sure to be good. The boys loved it and we were all wiped when we got home. MRTing it to Marina Bay Sands, scootering over the Helix bridge and playing for hours at the park. It's amazing how much energy their little legs have in them! 




Super cool slide down the hill

We loved that after they spent time getting hot and sweaty on the obstacle courses & slides, they could cool off in the water play area.
