Singapore March 2013 - Day 2

That morning of second day we had breakfast at McDonalds, approximately 300 meters from our hotel. 8.30 am was the earliest that we could achieve every morning, considering the little ones. Tak, sebenarnya mak pak mereka yang liat nak bangun penat baq hang!

Around 9.30 we walked back to the hotel, requested the receptionist to call for a cab that could take all of us straight to the Singapore Zoo. 10 minutes later a comfortable private Honda van fetched us with charge of SGD50 per trip. For the 6 + 2 of us, that's considered ok; comfortable, no transit hassle, 30-45 mins ride, yeah, it's convenient if you could spend a little more.

Singapore Zoo was a huge place to visit. 3-4 hours well spent there, also had our lunch at a halal KFC within its zoo compound. The place was well maintained but some areas were closed for renovation (small area). A lot of visitors of course since it was Sunday but it was not crowded (the place is huge, I promise).

Went back to hotel around 2-3pm, we took a shuttle bus from Zoo to the MRT, around 10-mins ride, and straight back to our hotel. Kids were asleep all the way back despite the transit. Traveling using public transportation was very cheap and reliable too.

Lepak hotel kejap hilangkan penat, then we walked to the famous Zamzam restaurant for tapau and later to Bugis Street. A great bargain for souvenirs at Bugis Street especially the Singapore tees. The covered street was crowded with people, we only spent 30 mins there for tees and some other souvenirs. There were still a lot to explore if you walked through every single row within the street. Crazy atelyu.

Walked all the way back to hotel (around 600-700 meters) and of course lah kepenatan lalu melepak di hotel sampai malam, afterall it was around 6.00 pm already.

All refreshed, perut penuh and ready for day 2. Map reader pon dah ready (dalam stroller)

These are how we carried our kids. Two strollers would be just too macam-macam nak kena bawa. Eirsa walked most of the time but yeah, there were times beside that most of the time. Whenever Eirsa slept, she'll be occupying the stoller and Eivie will be passed around (semua pun nak dukung Eivie).

I also borrowed a carrier from a dear friend, we didn't buy our own considering Eivie doesn't like to be carried that way.  It's actually quite helpful to be having one, easier to move around too.
