Day 2: 27Aug2022 (Sat) - Sunny Rise and shine! We all had a good sleep and finally no more headache! Weather was also amazing! We had a quick and light breakfast (bread and yoghurt) in the hotel before checking out. Our first stop: The Roundhouse The scenery was breathtaking. However, as we were near to the beach, it was very windy, A kept shouting "COLD, COLD, COLD", so we didn't manage to take any nice photos and had to leave quickly. 2nd stop: Playground at the Esplanade A was thrilled to see the huge playground and didn't want to leave 3rd stop: Fremantle Market The market was smaller than expected, but the food was good. We ordered duck bao, soup and Dutch pancakes. We also bought a wool hat for A. Then it was time to ... read more

It was our first flight together as a family of 3! It's also A first aeroplane experience. As A had not reached 2, his ticket was free. This is probably the first and last time he will be travelling for free. Day 1: 26Aug2022 (Fri) - Sunny We arrived early at Changi Airport as our flight was at 0930. After checked in, we had our breakfast at the food court and explored the grounds. We went to the butterfly garden, but A was more intrigued by the aeroplanes outside and fishes in the pond. Soon, it was time to board the plane. Our seats were at the front so we have ample leg space, but as A did not have a seat, we have put the blanket and pillow on the ground instead. Take off was ... read more

Day 3 (24/7/2022) Found another coffee shop for breakfast. This coffee shop was more crowded than the previous one and served more local food. Food was not too bad too. After breakfast, we checked out of our Airbnb and head towards the Desaru fruit farm. Once we reached, we had to pay for the ticket and get our queue number to board a truck to the fruit farm. While waiting, we walked around the gift shop, trying out some of the dried fruits. The truck drove us to the entrance of the orchard. There was already a guide explaining to a family before us when we reached. However, we were left to explore the orchard on our own. Nothing fanciful. We then reached a koi pond where we could buy some fish food to feed the ... read more

Day 2 (23/07/2023) We had breakfast at a nearby coffeeshop (can't remember what is the name already). Food was not too bad. After that, we went back to prepare for beach! Desaru beach was crowded but we still managed to find some empty spaces for us to put our mat. The sand and ocean were generally clean. A was abit hesitant in playing with sand at first, but was ok after awhile. Fearing that A might be cold from the water, we went to change around noon time. The toilet was really dirty and dark, so we changed A on the beach instead. Me, my husband and A left first, while the rest continue to stay at the beach and play watersport. Back to our Airbnb, we showered A, fed him lunch before putting him to ... read more

Day 1 (22/07/2022) This was the first trip with my family after I had A. We left house early hoping to beat the traffic at the Woodlands Checkpoint. The drive in was not too bad, just slight jam. We then stopped at a dim sum place (Pin Ming Xuan) for breakfast. Slight more expensive than local kopitiam, but it looks cleaner (playing safe for A). Food was not bad as well. We then drive to Mid Valley to do some grocery shopping as well as to kill some time before check in time. Me, my husband and A went to Kiddytopia, while the rest went to do their own stuff. Indoor playground in Johor was so cheap as compared to Singapore and there was no time limit as well. A enjoyed himself at the indoor playground. ... read more
