Saturday 16 December 2017

There is no ballet class today and since we have been busy in the past few months shuttling between abacus in the morning and ballet in the afternoon, the break today and last Saturday was much needed. And since we will hardly have anymore Saturdays free, I suggested going to JB and the eldest brother was my most keen supporter. Lol.

Although we planned to meet at the bus-stop opposite our place at 8am, the train they were in stopped at Outram and was pulled out for maintenance (!) and the next train was at 8:02am thus they took the shuttle service instead and we ended up meeting at about 9am. It took us almost 3 hours to clear customs in JB and that we actually alighted the bus way before the Singapore immigration because traffic wasn't moving! We saw later it was because a trailer was filtering and caused a whole line of jam. Thankfully we made the walk with many other passengers from other buses as well.

As usual, we enjoyed ourselves but had to be mindful with what we buy because we are now travelling via public transportation. The eldest brother and SIL brought along a cabin trolley bag too for their shopping. 

We ended up reaching home at 11pm because it took awhile to search for a grab driver at the mall and then at the Singapore check-point, the buses took forever, almost an hour, to come. Some people even left the queue to walk to Woodlands central area. The brother and SIL reached home at almost midnight.

The hubs has sworn off going to JB over the school holiday period. :(
