wow Cathy, so your family is now doing the daily commute i guess? welcome to the club =)
I'll put in my timing as well. and see the consensus to better manage time amongst all using 1st link. am not too far off ST though i'd be shifting and using 2nd link soon. I woke up in shock this morning, usually my laptop will wake up with my iTunes playlist at 4:45am, I forgot to activate and opened my eyes at 5:24am. Left house and properly on the road bout 5:35am, reached Clementi by 6:39am - Cathy I may have passed your family on the road haha. Am really surprised it was not that slow at the 1st link as I usually leave by 5am and reach at 6am at work (thankfully only 2 days a week).
coming back a bit more headache. I'd advice going back as early as you can. I sometimes reach woodlands by 4ish pm. Latest reach woodlands by 5:20ish, after that its queue till eternity usually relenting only about late side of 8 to 9ish pm. Then there is the tebrau peak hour traffic. I totally understand the yearning for EDL! =)
euphony, I left my house at 5.35am. Reach my Tampines house at 6.50am today. Am surprised that there are not many cars at 1st link. More cars after you pass the first link and on your way to the Singapore custom. But then, Singapore custom also clear very fast. My children said they are ok with the journey. They have gotten used to the rountine now. They now go to sleep 9pm. One hour earlier then usual, and then wake up at 1 hour earlier then usual too. Infact my children now feel sleepy 1 hour earlier. My relative who help me to move house was still lamenting about us putting our children through so much stress. But I guess its a matter of adjustment afterall.
