Day: July 1, 2012

It’s been lovely to have Tony off work and to be able to do things with all the Hunts. We spent Saturday morning chilling by the pool again but this time with the addition of Josh and James while Tony and Ally took Isabelle to view a potential school. After lunch we headed to the Singapore Science Centre. Loads of really interesting things for the kids to do ( and the adults!) and heavenly air conditioning. We are all struggling with blisters on our feet although we are used to our shoes just because of the level of heat and humidity.

 

In the evening Ally had booked us a BBQ pit next to the pool at the condo so we had delicious food and a late night swim in the pool. A late night for the kids but definitely worth it! We are STILL struggling with jet lag – only Luke has got the hang of sleeping through the night so far. Hopefully the rest of us will work it out soon.

 

Today we planned to visit a wildlife park and a boat trip but looking at all the tired faces we are scaling back to just the boat trip. We are looking forward to it, and tomorrow we have to leave the luxury of staying with Tony and Ally and head off by ourselves. We’ve found it hard to find accommodatioion the islands we wanted so we have pre-booked for 2 nights on Sibu – three hours north of here, off the Malaysian East coast. Bizarrely, although we first contacted them before we left the UK it turns out Tony and Ally have stayed in the same hotel before and are able to recommend them. Should be fun!
