Junction 8

Today, we wanted to bring the family to Chinatown to soak in the CNY atmosphere and buy some goodies there at the same time. However, while travelling along CTE, we saw the computerised signboard which informed us that there is a road closure in Chinatown. So we quickly exited to Ang Mo Kio and drove to Bishan Junction 8 instead.

We seldom go to Junction 8 as it is rather crowded. Since it has been a while, we decided it was time to revisit the place.

Going out with kids has its advantages. As we were taking the escalator down to Basement 1, Danielle was probably smiling so sweetly to a family behind us that the parent gave Danielle a balloon sculpture. So this was how we ended up with this pink balloon.

We had dinner at Crystal Jade Restaurant which we concluded it wasnt as good as before. The portions seemed smaller and the price seemed high. We were still hungry after spending $60 for 3 adults. Totally not worth it. Probably wont go back there again.



After dinner, we walked around and went out where there was an open area just right for Caleb and Danielle to play and run.





We also walked around in the shopping centre where there was a door leading to the outdoor playground area.


I concluded that both my kids enjoy going to open spaces where they can run and roam freely as they are both so active. Therefore if you have any recommendations of where I can bring them in Singapore, do let me know!

Oh talking about being active, here's Danielle climbing up the gate at 13 months and Caleb has long ago reached the top of my gate already.



Thank God I still have some energy left to keep up with them.
