Singapore Monday

Much closer to home than we’d like to be. The flight of around 14 hours is not ideal, but if we want to travel, we don’t have options. Once we’re there, all is fine. Can’t sleep a lot on the plane.

Singapore’s border control process was very efficient and didn’t take long, a complete opposite to what we experienced on the way over to the UK. Once through, we went to the Singapore Stopover Holiday desk and collected our attractions card HO HO Bus info, a couple of sim cards and mini bus transfer details. After a short wait, we were on the bus, out of the heat and humidity and into the same hotel we stayed in on the way over. Couldn’t fault the hotel last time and this time is also looking good. We have a big room on the 14^th floor, overlooking the street. The aircon is running well, we’re just back from a hawker market meal ($3.50 for meat & 2 vegies) and we’ve opened a bottle of Sauv Blanc we tucked in the suitcase before we left London. We’re planning tomorrow’s sightseeing. There are still things we didn’t have time to look at last time.
