Visit to the Fish Farm

Today is Vesak Day and we decided to take our godson Elliot (Laura's Nephew) on an excursion. We decided to go visit this fish farm in Pasir Ris, where the owner has set up am shallow pool of water where kids can go and catch these small guppies. They charge $11 per kid, which gives them a net, a pail, some fish food, mineral water and finally a small cup of ice cream.

Elliot was really excited, but it wasn't too easy catching the guppies. We managed to catch four, after some help from myself. Okay, I wasn't really supposed to help him catch but really the owners were just closing one eye. But it wasn't easy for myself as well. But it was a whole load of fun, running around trying to trap the guppies and then catching them and putting them in the pail.

We gave Kinnon one of the pails and nets, and well, he just had a lot of fun pouring the water in and out of the pond. However, he fell into one of the shallow fish ponds which contained these huge Koi fishes. Okay, he was probably thinking of catching these fishes with his hands when he plunged in.

All in all, it was quite fun, and I think everyone enjoyed themselves. Especially Elliot... he didn't tell us he wasn't supposed to eat ice cream so it really made his day when he got to eat ice cream without us knowing.
