Sentosa with Grandma and Grandpa

While Hyrum was sleeping and I was packing Taylor and the kids took Grandma and Grandpa down to Sentosa Island. They explored a different part than the kids and I had seen so it was lots of new fun. They found a giant Merlion that you can go inside. You climb up to the top and there is a lookout in his mouth. They had a great day walking around the island and checking everything out!

 

Packing Up Singapore

Saturday was our last full day in Singapore. Hyrum and I spent the day packing up all our stuff. I gathered everything into one room and then put him for a nap while I got it all stuffed into our 6 suitcases. 

Later that night I took a taxi to Jenna's to drop off 3 of our suitcases that we didn't need for the Cambodia/Thailand trip. And I had to get a picture of the "Texas Chicken" at her mrt stop. The kids and I think it's so funny because in Texas it is actually called Church's Chicken, same logo and everything. 

 

Then after the kids were to bed Taylor and I and his parents walked down to the Newton Hawker Court because Taylor really wanted us to eat chili crab. It is yummy and really messy. Also quite pricey so it was nice to go without the kids. A busy, full day!

 

Chinatown!

Friday Kathy and Bryan went down to campus with Taylor to look around. He finished up and got all his stuff gathered. That evening we finally went to Chinatown which we LOVED. It was so, so cool there. Even the mrt stop was awesome with the cool Chinese writing on the ground. All the people and shops and buildings and lanterns and amazingness. LOVED. And the prices were excellent on everything. =] We had some delicious dumplings and dim sum. We took this great picture in front of the temple/church and Hannah was crying in the first one for some reason so we had to take another. Did some shopping, saw some monks, and had a great time.

Merlion and Esplanade

Thursday Night I took Kathy and Bryan to see the Merlion and also to walk along the Esplanade. Taylor did this a few times before the kids and I got to Singapore so he offered to put the kids to bed and sent us out. I was pretty exhausted but am glad he made us go. It was really pretty and a lot of fun. We saw some beautiful buildings and eating dinner on the river was really neat. Fun night out on the town!

Relax Day

On Thursday Kathy and Bryan went to Ubin Island and the kids and I went swimming. In the afternoon Hannah and I ran a couple errands during Hyrum's nap...I finally tracked down some Dr. Pepper in Singapore at a specific Cold Storage. Then we just had some fun down time at the apartment while we waited for Dad and Grandparents to get home. And then shared some kindereggs with them. Mmmm. It was a nice relaxing day.
