Water bunnies

The plan for today since the twins had no school was to go back to Marina Promontory where the YOG Kids' Carnival was. The problem was that it being a work day and the Promontory being smack in the middle of the CBD was impossible to get to.

The alternative was the Marina Barrage since we were already in the area. And since it was a nice overcast day and the Barrage would be free from the regular weekend crowds, it wasn't a bad alternative.

But we weren't exactly alone. The Chinese YOG track team were there and we were equally fascinated with one another. I couldn't stop gawking because the athlete most enamoured by the twins was about 6ft 2 and said she was a sprinter.





At the end of the day, I don't think it mattered to the twins where we went. They generally find fun where ever they go. And the added bonus of being able to play in the water made their day.

Of course, note to self. Don't just bring extra tops. Shorts are needed too. Initially they were careful about not getting their shorts wet and just wading around. But I could literally see the switch flip and their minds went "screw this! I'm playing in the water" and they submerged themselves fully.
