The last weekend was fairly hectic due to my close cousin's wedding. I thought our side held a very grand wedding. The food spread was mind blowing and I thought it was too much!

Anyway,other than the boo-boo with the bus coming very late to ferry us to the bride's place for the nikah, the 3-day affair went relatively smoothly.

Here wishing my cousin and wife a blessed marriage!

Honz gave us a treat by booking a 2 night stay at RWS Hotel Michael. Although I found the hotel was not worth the $500/night, we thought it was still an ok deal for booking during CNY. 

It was also our first staycation! The first day, we went to the newly opened Sea Aquarium. It was really a WoW! Experience despite the large crowd.

Food was a little tough to find and we spent most of our meals at Coffee Bean. On the 2nd day, we went to the Beach and Fort Siloso. It then started to rain heavily and we were back at the hotel by 2pm which was followed by a 2 hour nap. We had dinner at Harbour Front Pizza Hut. Sadly, many of the shops were closed during the CNY. So much for our staycation. We spent the rest of the evening in our overpriced hotel room albeit the super comfy bed.

We were hoping to explore Sentosa on the third day but we were frightened off by the horde of foreign workers and tourists visiting the island. Sensing that we won't get much enjoyment out of squeezing with the crowd, we headed to the comfort of our home in Tampines. Still it was a nice change from our usual routine.

We bought Faris a play tent from Toy r Us! So fun! I love playing in one when I was very young! Kids these days are really lucky.

I brought Faris (as well as Sis and my nieces to the zoo today). I didn't quite enjoy the trip because the gals just kept on whining. Pfft! I'm going to go again, this time without them.
