Hotel 81 - Sakura Singapore

... terus.

Gue membeli parfum, sedikit oleh-oleh, dan supply obat jerawat (i know... it's not worth mentioning... >.<) en obat-obatan yang gak ada di Indonesia.

How to get there: Naik MRT turun di Farrel Park atau (mau lebih jauh?) Lavender. Ada juga bis yang lewat dekat sono, tapi gak ingat. Bisa juga jalan dari Bugis Junction kalau pengen gempor :D

... the British Embassy and ask there. After another trip on the MRT, and a half an hour walk, we made it. I approached the security guard with my active attempt at genealogy, and was met with bewilderment and confusion. I think they thought I was some ...

... on!

This guy was in the seat next to me and he hardly spoke any English, so that was fun in its self, but added to that he had a cold so was all snotty AND he was asleep for the entire flight. Now I'm not begrudging anyone sleep on a plain, I mean you need to grab it when you can but on a 12 hour flight when your stuck on the window seat it is impossible to get out to have a wee let alone stretch ...

... bubbled so our photos were a bit blurry. The Chair Lift travels 60 metres above the water and Mumsie was extremely quiet for the entire journey!!!
As soon as we got there we took the Sky Tower which is a 120 metre high tower with an enclosed viewing platform attached to it which revolves as it goes up. The views were even better and this time we got some great shots of the island and its beaches and resorts (including the huge new casino and Movie world complex being ...

... night' that ended up going on until 6am! This involved a ladyboy cabaret act, a few free buckets, bumping into our dive master Mick and getting *********d with him and having to put a girl we met that night to bed cos she couldn't stand up by the end of the night, Yanks cannot handle their beer! A great night but we must be getting old co it took three days to recover from that.

It was sad to leave Phi Phi as we loved it so much there but off we went to Phuket. In ...

... and chunky pieces of chicken I expected. I spent the Friday morning walking along Orchard Road, which is the main shopping street for Singapore. While I didn't buy anything, as I don't have room for any impulse purchases in a backpack, it was an interesting walk, stopping in various shops in possibly the most western city in Asia. In the afternoon, I went into the gardens of the president's mansion. This was quite a ...

... architecture, cheerful lighting, and lots of plants and fountains, creating a comfortable ambiance; Singapore goes to great lengths to create an aesthetically pleasing city with numerous green spaces and tree-lined streets. We spent the next 2 ½ days walking. We walked the length of Orchard Ave, the main shopping district, a wide street lined by trees and wide sidewalks. There were countless malls ranging from very upscale with Prada, Gucci, Guess and the like ...

... Re had already burst through. Joan called back not long after and we arranged to meet them at The Scarlett to have a gander and then head to dinner. If we thought our hotel was cool this place was way off the scale. Maybe even a little OTT. I suppose the theme could be described as luxurious brothel, not that I've been in a luxurious one. You'd have to look at their website as words couldn't come close to giving you an accurate impression. One thing ...

... un ordinateur mais après réflexion, on s'est dit que ce n'était pas une très bonne idée, tout d'abord parce que nous avons encore 3 mois à vivre comme des nomades mais aussi parce que nous n'avons aucune idée concernant notre prochaine entrée d'argent!

Visiter Singapour se limite principalement à regarder les grattes-ciel depuis le centre ville, au dessus de la rivière, depuis le quartier chinois, etc. Nous avons également fait un grand tour à pieds dans le ...
