We reached the place at about 5pm after a hard time finding our way from Marina Square due to some renovation works there. We need to carry the prams up and down in rather uncomfortable environment. Right after we reached, the babies started crying for milk and we scrambled to get the milk ready.
While the ladies are feeding, I took some pictures of the floating platform.
After feeding, we looked for place to rest while we planned to look around at the stalls. But just as we are settling down, we heard the MC asking us to move forward for the baby massage session where they want to gather as many parents as possible to break record on the most babies being massaged at the same time.
I will say that it was really fun with the baby massage and the babies really slept right after the massage session. We were in the limelight for a while because the doctor saw that we have twins and announced on stage when the SuperMom photographers started to come over to shoot us.
During the 3 hours on the floating platform, a lot of time are spent latching the babies, checking the diapers and waiting for each babies to finish milk when they don't seems very keen, etc... We also chanced to meet Bernard and his wife Charlotte there and we chit chatted for a while there too.
We departed from the place at about 8:30pm after dinner and listening to the last talk about "How to be a good Father." by the Dads For Life Movement. We took the Esplanade route back to Marina Square and it proved to be a wrong choice because there was a lot of escalators and even steps where we need to carry the pram separately. Fortunately, our domestic helper Ann was quite strong and helped carry quite a lot of items for us. The journey was pretty long and certainly tiring.
We eventually reached home about 10:30pm and we unpack all the things, gave the babies their last feed and I simply knocked out to bed immediately at 12am...
What a tiring but memorable first trip out of home with both babies.
