Not entirely sure how to write one of these, so I am just going to see what happens...
I'm not going to talk about the flight as that was pretty boring. Struggled to really get into any films, despite there being some good ones, so I just listened to some music and slept for a bit. Food was okay, but I can't remember what I had.
I arrived at Changi about 20 mins early, but then spent 10 minutes going to the gate. Got through immigration fine and my bag was the first I saw on the belt so that was easy. I then took a taxi down to the Marina Bay Floating Platform where they had a session all afternoon and evening. I hung around there for a few hours before heading back to the apartment with the other coaches.
Had to wake up earlier on Thursday to get to the coaching place (Victoria Junior College) for 8.30. The summer camp was good fun, though gradually got harder as the temperature got hotter. It had started out as quite a cool day for Singapore with a nice wind coming in off the coast, but then it got hotter and by about 11.00, was around 32 degrees. Had lunch at a food court 'under' Parkway Parade shopping centre before heading back to the apartment to sort my stuff out and shower. Had a few hours to spare in the afternoon so I got a bus towards the centre. Got off at Suntec City and spent 30 mins just wandering around before getting on the MRT to Downtown. Found Lau Pa Sat and had a fresh Mango juice and then a Dragonfruit juice. Then got the bus back towards East Coast Park and spent a bit of time walking along the promenade. For food, I walked up to East Coast Road, past our hotel from a few years ago, and ate at the hawker stall we did on our first night. Managed to order noodles with octopus (accident!) and used chopsticks - I am a natural if you recall! Walking home, passed a ferrari and lamborghini parked and got passed by an R8.
Off to bed soon. Hope this has been correct, and dont expect one of these every day, maybe every other day.

Dad Brilliant blog....very chatty and lovely to imagine you doing all these things. Nice and warm here today as well!
Jane Well done Ben, the blog is a great idea. Wander across the soccer pitch and have a swim in the pool of the Marina Bay hotel (the one in your pic) it has the best view xxx
