Singapore- 12-15th Dec
I have now been in singapore airport for 5 and a half hours, and im not even bored yet! and i have another 5hours to go. We had to check out of our hostel at 12 so weve been here ever since!
Singapore is an amazing city and i would recommend anyone who is feeling adventurous to come stay here for a few nights. We flew in at about 4pm and organised a hotel through the airoport, Singapore is a very busy place so we stayed where we could afford. Geylang Road, red light district, our hotel the Fragrance Sapphire was used as a brothel!! SO people were coming and going all night!! It wasnt that bad the lady on reception was nice enough but we new it was time to leave when she said i was pretty and the pound signs lit up in her eyes!!
We spend the following 2 nights in a Fragrance Backpakers hostel in Little India, this was really nice. We stayed in a dorm with 2 other couples. one couple snored all night, both of them, worse than gemma i swear!!
There is loads to do in singapore and if you fly with singapore airlines, who i would strongly recommend, its cheap. we got an all day hop on bus for the equivelent of a pound, all around the city. The trains and the bus make the city easily accessible but there is alot of walking!!
Whilst we were here we did a night safari which was fun, and we went over to a little island off of singapore called sentosa, Carlsberg, as in vthe lager have built a massive revolving tower you go up in. Awesome views, we got the bus to the island and then the cable car back. all good fun
There is such a diverse culture here. one minute you are in little india the next chinatown, which is quite a sight. orchard road is the main shopping street, singapore is one massive shopping center, even cinemas have about 12 floors of shops. It is good but not that cheap, more gucci and versace than you can shake a stick at!!
Suntec tower is a massive complex of towers with the largest founatin in the world at the center of it. At night they do a laser show and water show, there are some lovely restaurants here too.
Anyway better go dont want to miss my fight to sydney, only 4 and half hours left here!!
