Am a new fan to your vids! Tip for your future trip - it's great to go with a collapsible pail (think of it as an investment for future footbaths at home when you're sore from so much walking!). Try to secure a shaded seating area and then grab your pail and load it with water (you can take some from the upper pools if the lower ones where ppl all dip their feet in makes u feel queasy).
GOOD SHOW!!! Think of the amount of people soaking their feet in the water making it somewhat murky as similar to people visiting Lourdes of France for their pilgrimage and bathing there. Then you'll understand better. 😉
Hello! I do recall your earlier vlog when you visited the Sembawang hot springs just shortly after you arrived in Singapore a couple of years ago and your adventures boiling eggs 😂. My, how time has flown… you guys were fresh-faced new arrivals back then; now you are fully fledged residents with a greater feel of the island.
Perhaps the mineral benefits are absorbed through the feet soaking in the springs 🤔 Runny eggs definitely not for me 😮 Great to see the kids getting involved too. I very much enjoyed your interview with Iliana too. 🦋
I had not checked in in a few weeks and I totally forgot how great your intro is. Your kids are so smart and helpful, and traveling with them will only bring out more of that. We are checking in with our friends here to let you know about our name change and upcoming RTW drive in a solar SUV. Being anthropologists, we love to watch people have new experiences in new places, especially those who promote culture and nature. Keep up the fun and we look forward to sharing in your journey, as we hope you are enjoying ours. Thanks for the support. - Turtle and Bea
This is a good advertisement for singapore for a non touristy place and a heartlander attraction for locals. Hope more ppl will visit this place anf hopefully nparks and Nea upgrade this place better . Perhaps an onsen spa in future, who knows
Thank you! Apparently during the Japanese occupation there was some sort of onsen type spa at the location. I think it suffered from a bombing and was lost for a while.
Wow 3years already... Suddenly rmb ur initial vlog when covid started.... Which is why ppl bring their own pails and why japan insist you shower before going in.... And more private onsen are popping up.
A little niggle - the (yellow) hibiscus is the state flower of Hawaii rather than a national flower, given that Hawaii isn’t a country. I wanted to come by to say that the (red) hibiscus - bunga raya - is the national flower of Malaysia. But since that was already said, all I’m left with is this niggle :)
Great video 🎉
Aww thanks! Do share if you know others who would enjoy it too.

We say people fully prepared with buckets - our minds we’re on food 😂 we hope you enjoy our other videos.

Thank you!!! We love France, we haven’t been there though. Have you?

Hey there kenzone. Thanks for your ongoing support! Yeah it was one of the first places we visited and strangely one of the kids favourites!
Do check out Kent Ridge Park if you have not been there, also you can visit the war museum - Reflections at Bukit Chandu for free there. 😍😍
Oh thank you, I’ll go and look it up!
@@WONDERLUSTworld Btw, you can also check out SG City Gallery that is open for public visit, it is next to Maxwell Food Centre.
Great! Love Maxwell too

Possibly! The kids love this place.
Thanks, she’s got an amazing story to share. X

Hibiscus national flower of Hawaii, also of Malaysia.
Ah I didn’t know that! Thanks for sharing
doesn't the dipping pool has some sort of filtration system? if it's stagnant how does it keep its hotness?
Good question! It must have some sort of filtration to keep it moving.
Hydrogen sulfide from the springs. Just like the springs in Rotorua in NZ.
Ah thank you!
But if you say "that's hot", it can also mean it's cool!
Haha very true! Just sounded a bit silly near 70 degree water 💦
FIRST (p.s. truly appreciated the cool joke)
Woo Hoo 😂 thank you! Glad you stuck around long enough to hear it. It’s a ‘cracker’ 🥚
Like the eggs we are cooked 😂❤it

Just when i was thinking bout it u were saying how your boy have grown 😆
He really has!!

Oh btw. Abit wrong info.
7mins on fire is for japanese ramen egg with semi gooey yolk.
For half boil sg egg is lesser. Maybe 5-6min.
We found that 10 mins was still soft boiled egg! I think it’s because of the temperature…

Thanks Melvin - there is actually an independent sovereign nation state of Hawaii - of which the hibiscus is the national flower.. 😉
@@WONDERLUSTworld Ha ha. Excellent! 😜
