We watched the laser show over the river from the Sky Lounge on the top of our hotel this evening. From the 22nd floor we could see all over the main Marina bay area. After watching the show, we went on a different balcony where we could see both the Boat Quay and the Clarke Quay. We decided to walk around the Boat Quay to the other side of the river to watch the musical laser fountain show from the viewing area. It seemed really close from on top of our hotel but how wrong we were - it was about 2 miles to the other side of the lake. On the bright side, the walk was a real eye opener. The beauty and the opulence of Singapore is breath taking. Walking through the Fujlerton Hotel was a real treat and after the fountain show we dropped in to the Marina Shopping Mall. Blimey, I've never seen so many designer shops and it's the only place I have ever seen a Ferrari store too.
The 'Gardens by the Bay' were amazing too and as we wandered around we both agreed that Singapore is the most beautiful city we have ever been too.
After the gardens we went to Raffles for a Singapore Sling in the long bar. We were peckish so ate loads of peanuts and as per the custom here threw the shells on the floor!
I think next time we are this way it'll need a longer stop over. It's expensive here but well worth the money for the experience.
