Same note as the previous post! therefore, more pics of ME! :P:P One more trip into our neighbouring country for Lil to have a look around.. i secretly think i'm quite a good trip planner if i may say so... hehehehe...
This time we based our itinerary on the MRT line :) Bugis-Marina Bay-Raffles Place-Tanjong Pagar-Orchard-Chinatown-Clarke Quay-Kallang-Bugis~
Loitering round Bugis Junction when all the stores were not open yet :) The sky was damn black as we were leaving Bugis, but luckily it cleared up later for us to make the most of our day..
Next stop was Marina Bay.. I'd actually forgotten what there was to see at Marina Bay, completely didnt realise tat's where the Marina Bay Sands Hotel + Casino is located, how silly... It was swelteringly hot, hence the umbrella, lol...
Customs House~We actually just kept walking without knowing where we were headed for...
One Fullerton Hotel.. can see our reflections on the building just like the Beatles Story Building in Liverpool~ :):):)
We accidentally stumbled into the hotel while looking for someone to ask for directions, and it is so so grand, i wish i'd have a chance to stay there... *wishing*
stopped by Starbucks for some refreshments.. Starbucks is much cheaper in S'pore if you earn SGD :(
we walked and walked and ended up walking from the end of the harbour to Merlion Park =.=
Lots of tourists milling around and we managed to catch one to help us take a photo :DAfter bringing Lil to shop for some souvenirs, we walked some more to the nearest MRT Station which is Raffles Place to take a ride to Lao Pa Sat for lunch as we were meeting our chapalang tour guide who works nearby.. made a detour by Boon Tat St as well... After lunch, we decided to take the bus to Orchard since our tourist pass could be used for buses as well as the MRT :)
With one of the lions at Ngee Ann City~ We actually took the bus twice going one way past Orchard Road at first, then alighting and crossing the road to come back again... @.@~ kiasu ppl dont waste things, especially 8SGD per day tourist passes.. hehe...
amusing ourselves in some tandas at some shopping mall =.=
Somewhere in the middle of Orchard.. doing silly stuff as usual~
Saw this when we were on the bus, but took ages to locate it after we started walking.. I'm standing so awkwardly cos i was trying to hide my Big Gulp cup behind the red colour guy... :P
hugging the post~
oh, and we got to experience the F1 experience in this little booth where you would have gone deaf if you stayed inside for too long, whee~
outside ION Orchard and the MRT station before heading for our next stop -- Chinatown!
The only pic where you can spot me while we were in Chinatown..Basically just went road the roads looking at the interesting stuff sold and then we went to the huge Buddhist temple and tried to rush to the top floor to catch a glimpse of the Buddha relic on display there before the chamber closed at 6pm.. We were just in time, but i didnt really know what we were supposed to be looking at and furthermore, no cameras allowed inside... I think we spent quite some time in the temple cos it was quite huge.. luckily i wore jeans that day cos Lil who was in shorts had to borrow a sarong... :P
Last stop of the day was Clarke Quay, cos it was nearing Mid-autumn festival and there were many lanterns on display there :):)

Rabbit!! Its my year this year :):):)
later that night~ many other lanterns there besides the 12 zodiac animals :)
cute statues ard the quay
With them again~!There was also a Taiwanese food festival there that day, but we ended up having Long John Silvers for dinner cos the crowd was just too huge to fight against so we didnt bother.. made a little stop at Kallang cos we'd actually missed the latest time to redeem the deposit for our travel cards, and had to ask for my old roommate to save us.. but luckily we managed to get the refund without having to bother her in the end thanks to a kind aunty at Kallang station who gave us the refund and said that she would help us to exchange the card the next day.. stupid unfriendly unhelpful worker at Bugis MRT Station!! hmph!
All in all a very fulfilling day in Singapore cos we managed to fully maximise our day visiting many of the tourist spots :D but we were both dog-tired that night, heh~
