Malaysian Food Street is closed when we try to go back for breakfast...
But that’s not why Rockstar’s closing his eyes… He’s just having a deja vu moment, going back to posing with his eyes closed…
So we hit the rock pool bar early!
Yes that is my 29 weeks pregnant self.
No we didn’t really bar for breakfast, we went back to the hotel for buffet… Where Rockstar watches avidly as two older local boys get into a napkin fight in a corner.
Me: You can join them if you want, but be prepared they might be too busy with each other to pay much attention, they’ve obviously been friends for awhile…
Rockstar: Nah…
Me: Why not?
Rockstar: We’re not speaking the same language.
I listen for awhile…
Me: That’s English. What d’you mean – You don’t think Singlish is English???
Rockstar: No, it’s like Cantonese (the difference between that and Putonghua, I guess he means.)
He gets very amused by Singlish on the radio though…
And gets the tall blue drink…
This should be some kind of blue drink commercial…
Have Blue Drink Will Fly
If it's fun, why do it just once?
Really love the pool... Because it's got a beach!
Love the “fake-ish” sand, it’s not so fine as to get blown about when Rockstar plays with it, it’s super-clean, and Rockstar still gets a sand fix!
*Swoon*
This was right before he threw it away after a passing little boy pipes out the flowers are poisonous <somewhat deflated>
We spend the whole day vegging on the beach... Or chicken nugget-ing...
We cut a deal; Rockstar eats all his lunch, we don’t make him go inside for lunch. He’s only recently started eating chicken nuggets, having previously not really liked meat…
After a nap (Rockstar and Kings – I can’t sleep :(), we decide to do something “easy” – and catch the 20-ish minutes Songs Of The Sea show on the island… BAD CHOICE. (Thought SGD 15 for “privilege” seats was fishy)
Oscar, the only bit about Songs of The Sea Rockstar liked...
Firstly it was horribly crowded (Lots of different nationals – some Caucasians, quite a lot of Indians and Indonesians, and – I overhear Cantonese! When I freaked out at the huge crowd and asked Kings for a face mask, the dad standing behind him overhears and asks his wife for the hand sanitizer and starts cleaning his kids’ hands – so Hongkie haha) – and secondly it was positively sweltering. I’m sweating buckets.
We could feel the heat
Not to mention some of these went off a little too close for Rockstar’s comfort and he’s barely holding back on bawling.
Finale fails to impress Rockstar...
…Unless you count bawling that he wants to LEEEEAAAVE. The fireworks and pyro were a little closer than we’ve ever had before.
And then when we get into a cab, “How come you didn’t take a picture of the monster? We have to go back and watch it again. I want a picture of the monster.”
Nearly passed out in the heat and the sticky crowd. Pregnancy means I can also smell everyone 😛 We are bloody not going back there again. The two guys can go back themselves.
And with that,
HAPPY EASTER 2012!!!!
Spot the Rockstar (No this isn't on Sentosa, could't find any Easter decor to take a pic of there), it's an earlier Easter decoration at Westwood
You look great! Happy (belated) Easter to you too. I am surprised that there is no sign of Easter celebration on Sentosa.
The two photos of Rockstar diving are priceless. The “will fly” photo deserves a prize for capturing the expression (pure joy) on Rockstar’s face.
In the 2nd photo, Rockstar’s pose is superb – like a pose during rhythmic gymnastic (with back straight and arched perfectly and straight outstretched arms). 🙂
What a fun holiday. Will he miss it when it is back to the school?
Touch wood nothing beats school (Its y we didnt schedule babymoon in my second tri bcos they didnt break for hols yet)… Cos school has something we can’t provide/ “buy” – friends, the satisfaction of doing quite well, bringing in slightly unusual stuff for his Show n Tell… Really hope it stays that way when baby comes/ he moves on to Pri…
What, no comments about my hideous pink rash guard? 😀 i usually have a short-sleeved black one, but the sun was so strong (and me lazy to apply gooey sunblock)… I have tan lines on my wrists!
Hideous pink!? but,,but,,pink is one of my favourite colour – one step behind red so it is absolutely NOT hideous. 😀 Would be very hot (as in temperature though I have no doubt you would be hot appearance wise also 😉 ) wearing a black one, wouldn’t it?
Pink’s one of my favorite colors too, but that shade is actually sickeningly sweet to me… Maybe doesn’t really show up in pic.. In the water don’t feel it as much, just worried about burn, but walking around otherwise quite uncomfy unless it rains..
