Christmas wonderland

We thanked God for another wonderful day as it was a rare Sunday we don't hv usual family dinner n Thot we shld head out to the Christmas wonderland at gardens by the bay. Read a lot Abt the traffic n just last nite the road was temporarily closed coz of traffic. So we braved the traffic n went early like 4+ to check out the Christmas market. Was kind of nice except too hot as we stroll down from barrage (as most car parks had long trail of cars) n the kids were so hooked on looking at every activity. There was dozens of 'traps' haha a lot of game booths n it was just tough to win their prizes. Joann was asking endlessly for the games. Just merely enjoying watching pple play n losing their tokens, the kids knew it was tough so ended up telling them if they walked off wo playing the games which din guarantee them a prize, they are guaranteed an ice cream from us. Glad they din succumb to it.

Off we went for our dinner while waiting for the skies to turn dark n for the lights to come on. Everywhere was crowded so we managed to get a table at an oriental western restaurant haha what a mix up name Anw kids loved their kids meal b pleasantly surprised food was served fast despite of the crowd. 

Soon we ventured out n this time cooler n we were treated w Hwa Chung choir singing n rather cool to hear Christmas carols at the Christmas market. The mood is in the air n the wind started coming in, it was cooler despite the crowd coming in too. Had some mini pan cakes as food was hard to resist at the place hee. Was telling Ian how cool to go Christmas market in Europe but here it's humid. Saw a lot of kiddy rides n we were thrilled by the AIA trick art. There was skating rink, Santa Claus cottage n photo booths. 

N we were treated to this Christmas  music thingy under the super grove. Pretty cool to see the lighting n kids were enjoying the music with their ice cream cones. Just nice that we made it this evening n glad we braved thru the crowd
