a wild wild wet end to October!

brought aly to wild wild wet theme park last week. of course we knew aly was too young for most of the stuff, but it was free entry for ntuc members in their birthday month, free for kids under 3 and discounted 30% for daddy so it was too irresistible a deal to pass up...

left Asher with my mom and we set off for downtown east. the weather was great, cloudy, no sun and no rain too.

we spent most of the afternoon at the professor's playground, a 0.3m kids friendly pool with five water slides and a giant water dump where water pours down from a giant pail every 10 minutes or so. i even managed to convince aly to follow me on the water slides twice which she did not like as both ended with water splashing all over her face. she was terrified of the giant water dump too.

apart from the playground, there was a tsunami wave pool which was pretty gentle despite the name. aly enjoyed sitting and waiting for the waves to wash into the "shore" and tickle her feet.

the other family friendly attraction was a lazy river where one could laze on a tube and meander around the perimeter of the park. however aly hated it as she was not at all amused by the small waterfall curtains that appear every once in a while and water gets into her eyes.

so...we eventually went back to the professor's playground where we just chilled with aly doing nothing but making mini splashes in the shallow water...where she went back to being super happy. whatever works Haha.

neither mommy nor daddy tested the more adventurous rides...guess we are not so garang anymore as age creeps up. and again, we ended the adventure with macdonalds teabreak...French fries and chocolate fudge sundae. yummy!
