After our adventures with Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and a distinct lack of shopping! we awoke on Sunday morning to head for Sentosa Island off the coast of Singapore for a day trip. We were able to get a cable car over to the island which was so cool! Its a big touristy thing and when we got there we made the stupid decision to play crazy golf in the blistering heat, it wasn't very pleasant although the golf part was fun! Spent the day wandering around the island and did this thing called a Luge which is part go kart and part tobaggon and took it all the way to the beach, was very entertaining!
That evening in true touist style we got all dressed up and headed for Raffles Hotel for a Singapore Sling (those of you who don't know it is where the cocktail was invented) and it is indeed very posh! Especially the way you can eat the peanuts and throw the shells on the floor....my kind of place!!! It was THE best cocktail ever, unfortunately we could only afford one so we sipped it slowly and sadly left the hotel. But we soon perked up as our next stop was a place called the New Asia Bar which is 71 floors up in the Swiss Hotel and lets you see all across Singapore! Again we were just about to afford a drink there but we certainly looked the part!
The next morning we were supposed to go to Singapore Zoo but we were shattered and it was a long way away and we were flying out that evening too so we went shopping for a present for Steph's sister's birthday and thank god we did cos an hour later there was a ginormous thunderstorm and it rained for the rest of the day!
