On board: C, A, D, M, B, M2, M3, R
This was a record of sorts... EIGHT people on board Little Wanderer, and she held up just fine, didn't feel cramped at all.
We started out at noon from Raffles Marina, where the waters in the no-wake zone were surprisingly choppy.
For three of our six guests, it was their maiden trip on the boat.
From left: C, M3, M2, R, B, D and M. At this point, it was a sunny day!
We headed to our usual spot south of the Lim Chu Kang fish farms, and that's when dark clouds started gathering over Johor Bahru to the north. Prayer did little. It started with a drizzle, and then grew into a proper shower. We all got more than a little damp, to say the least.
But who cared? We were taking music requests - emo Lewis Capaldi, anyone? - on the sound system, and we had Prosecco.
D, very vigilant about applying sunblock.
M, like the rest of us, glad for time to chill.
Wet from the rain? Might as well jump in!
M2's baby suddenly doesn't look so baby-ish anymore.
