Singapore Trip Day4

It is our last day, the day to buy pasalubong, gifts and souvenir items for our loved ones and friends.

We went to Mustafa and Little india, but to no avail we did not find anything that interests us.





So we went back to Vivo City and bought some chocolates and Chinese cookies in time for the Chinese New Year. We had our lunch taken at the mini food court.






Lastly we meet up with a college friend in Bugis Junction.
We were instructed by our friend to go to Bugis Street just across Bugis Junction. There we found the most affordable souvenir items. Some of the things we bought were bags, tshirts, nail cutters, keychains and ref magnets.

Singapore Trip Day3

It's our third day, yet it is the first time we ride on a bus. It is because we don't know how much to pay and then second we don't the process.

So for the benefit of those who doesn't know, please note on this.

If you have the card you just need to tap in your card upon entry and exit on the device below as labeled. For coins, drop the exact amount on the orange device. Take note that the driver won't give you a change for the payment you made.



For paying using the coin, get your receipt on the box below.




I go gaga over IKEA, it is a must for me to visit such place since I'm now married. They only not offer fabuluos furnitures but foods as well.... Yes, you read it right..foods! Yum Yum! We ate our lunch there.


This is my first time to see a non high rise building from Singapore, the area is around Changi.

Here's a typical condo, they usually build their home like this to save land space.
Later that day we ate our merienda at KFC in a mall near Pasir Ris.



After, we went back to our place and left the side table we bought from IKEA and proceeded to Esplanade for a night shot.










Singapore Trip Day2

Our first stop is Orchard, we spent most of our times in Lucky Plaza and Takashimaya Mall.

We bought alot of Hangten shirts in Lucky Plaza and ate our lunch in Kabayan.












Then after Orchard, we went to Suntec Mall.

Lastly, we took a long walk from Marina Square to Fullerton Hotel.


















Singapore Trip Day1

It was our first out of the country trip so we are very excited about this. Our flight is from Clark bound to Singapore via Cebu Pacific.

We arrived at Changi Airport at around 1:30am and took a cab to the Hostel. At around 7:30am, we woke up to prepare for our Sentosa Trip.

We need to ride a train going to Harbour front. The problem is we don't know how to buy a single journey ticket. Good thing there was a Filipina who helped us. She told us to press the button of the desired train station then the monitor will show the amount that you need to pay. You can make use of the coins or the S$ 2 bill. A green card will be dispensed which will server as your train pass. Simply tap it on the device provided at the gate entrance. Once you get out of the train station, you can have the card refunded by the same machine as below. In some station, you just need to insert the card to get a refund while other has this reader where you put the card first and then it will ask you to insert the card to get the S$1 refund.





For the Sentosa train, follow the intruction as shown on the picture below:



This is the card that will be dispensed:



Welcome to Sentosa!
