We had a good time over the weekend, spending quality time as a family. And it certainly helped that we had good weather, despite the periodic heavy rain.

On Saturday, we went to the 'Future of Us' exhibition at the Gardens by the Bay. The idiot of a contractor did not reply to the hubs' messages all week although we were expecting his people to fix the shower kerb and windows. So anyway, we decided that we should just carry on our own plans and not wait around like a fool.

After walking through the exhibits, we were stuck at the last station as it started pouring. Thankfully, we had prepared 3 wraps for the 3 of us and ate inside the last exhibition hall, which thankfully, allowed eating.

When the rain stopped, we took the buggy to the flower dome and paid for the entrance tickets since we had 40% discount when we visited the earlier exhibition. The last time we visited was either before K turned 1 or slightly after. So, she probably does not remember the trip to the domes. But she has since been back to GBTB with her previous childcare centre and enjoyed the children's waterplay area and now she will always pretend to bring her stuff toys on the toy stroller to GBTB.

On Sunday, after her afternoon nap, we went to the Health Promotion Board to collect a step-tracker that I've signed up for. And then we proceeded to Chinatown after. I had wanted to take a walk through the streets of Chinatown to show K the CNY decorations we well as to soak in the atmosphere but she was distracted when we chanced upon a outdoor tentage that was housing a Lion Dance competition. And so we joined the snaking queue, paid $10 each for the 2 adults and waited about an hour before the competition started. Ok, although I was grumbling while in the queue because I really wanted to take a stroll through the CNY decorated streets, I must admit that it was quite entertaining to watch. We only caught 3 performances though as it started later than scheduled. The show put up by Taiwan was fantastic. I wonder who won the competition. 

Anyhow, thankfully, unlike usual Sundays, K slept very fast after her usual bedtime downtime. I didn't have to raise my voice at all to get her to sleep this time.
