Palawan Beach

Yesterday, the House of ANG and Kiet's maternal grandma found ourselves checked into the Sentosa Island early in the morning.
.
.
We were planning for a family cum grandma's day out to the beach hence decided at the last minute on the Palawan Beach (since it's themed to be the Singapore's Happiest Family Beach) in Sentosa to relax and "Nua" around.
.
The excited Mummy, who is bringing Kiet for the 2nd time to Sentosa but with grandma this time, got up early to get things ready. There's sandwiches, hot water for beverages, towels plus extra change of clothings, sunblock lotions, finally not forgetting the beach ball & sand-play toys for the young active boy. Basically, the family is geared and all excited for a whole lotta' good beachin' fun and morning sun tan!
.
.
Ok, honestly before deciding on Palawan Beach, Mummy did not check the weather-man out. The family arrived at Palawan Beach only to find the sky rather overcast. That nevertheless did not dampen our moods; we continued to set up and eat our breakfast, followed by sand & water play. Daddy ANG also took the opportunity to educate Kiet while picking shells and seaweeds - It's Kiet's first time doing it though and we can all tell he is very excited!!
.


.
Oh, not forgetting to mention that our mischevious boy got to run after a free-roaming peacock - oooppsss!!!!!!!!!!!..........luckily it's merely him after the poor peacock instead of our boy running after it with his stroller!! We cannot imagine the peacock passing green stools..........after being so scared stiff [*hee hee* - Relieved]
.
.
From where we ate our breakfast, we can see this suspension bridge linking to another puny islet known to be the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia, or Asia's closest point to the Equator.
.
.
We had originally planned to check out that islet but the sky started to turn more clouded. Without much choices, we had to pack our things and move on to the showers, while also seeking shelter from the impending rain.
.

.
Of course before entering the showers, we "pushed" Kiet into the children's dippy ground for a quick-dip. Why push him? Isn't he supposed to like water-play? Well you see, we didn't know he'll feel shy in front of a few mummies who were also tending to their kiddos........In the end, instead of enjoying the dip himself, he found more fun watching the others dipped!
.
After shower, the rain started to pour and was splish-splashing heavily. While we sat around and waited for the rain to stop; the adults get to enjoy chit-chat over a cuppa' while dear son fell soundly asleep in his stroller. It's simply blissful and relaxing, watching the rain-drops wade the morning away.
.
For lunch, we opted for Chinese food at the Silk Road of the Sea restaurant. The food is alright except that we found the service staff un-familiar with their food menu. Oh well, we were expecting some quality from the Chinese restaurant though.
.
After a sumptuous lunch-treat, we departed the island for home sweet home (So dear son can get some late afternoon nap).
.
.
Till then, we left the Sentosa Island with more copies of the detailed island map; to be ready for the next Beach visit! How about day camping there? hee hee.......
