We went to Downtown East yesterday because Iyah has been bugging me for the past three days that she wants t ride a ferris wheel. We had a late lunch at there and went to see the ferris wheel, on our way to get the tickets though the little girl saw the carousel and changed her mind. She said she wanted to ride the carousel this time, I told her she can ride it and the choo choo train but she won’t be able to ride the ferris wheel anymore to which she agreed. She had a great time, I accompanied her at the carousel but she went to the train ride by herself….the ferris wheel ride completely forgotten (lol). After that since the weather was great I told my husband we should head to Pasir Ris Park and let Iyah play at the playground, so off we went. We were dropped off the other side of the park where families who are camping pitched their tents so we had to walk a little bit to reach the playground. It was nice seeing families enjoy the great outdoors, dads flying kites with their kids, grandparents preparing to barbeque their food, children biking and rollerblading…everyone having a great time. I’m not really an outdoors type of person, I do not like walking on grass or getting all sweaty and sticky or being bitten by bugs but the thought of us having a relaxing afternoon seem to be a nice idea.
Anyway when we reached the playground a lot of kids were already playing there, good thing we were able to spot an empty swing for Iyah. She loved the swing (too bad the playgrounds we have near our home doesn’t have swings) and she kept telling us how much fun it is and she insisted that I push her higher and higher. After she got tired of the swing we went to explore the other areas of the playground, she had fun at the slides of course and we got a lot of nice pictures. She was sad when it was time for us to go but we promised her we will be back next time. I hope we could bring our dslr next time so I can have really nice pictures of the place.
