#292 Singapore Trip Part I

Since I am the pemalas person that I am, I'll make my Singapore trip posts in parts yea. So as any sane people I know, parts will always start with part I.

So what happened on Day 1??

Day 1.

Amie arrived at the airport around 630am I think and I only arrived around 645am. I waited for my mum while she parked her car and then Amie and I checked in. We asked for front seats and we got front seats. I think 3 seats behind Business Class. The flight was pleasant because there weren't many people on board. Our flight was at 800am but we only took off at around 820am. So arrived in Singapore around 10ish. We were the first ones to get off the plane and once we reached immigration and wanted to claim our baggage, our baggage were the first ones to be out on the belt. :) so yaye for us. Took the cab and reached Hotel Rendezvous at approximately 1045am. Did the things people usually do when they check in into the hotel. Reached our room... Room 523 and tipped the concierge, hahaha dua dua lupa to tip them. So I told them to wait and gave them the money.

the hotel we stayed in... very nice hotel with an affordable price. The price is just nice and it's a walking distance from Orchard Road and Bugis Place.


This is the view from our room, it was raining on the 3rd day so that explains the raindrops on the window when I took this picture that very morning. :)

So on the first day we started our trip by walking from the hotel to Orchard Rd. We didn't know it was going to be a very very long walk but we walked. I can seriously say we truly walked. It took us a good 20 minutes just to reach The Heeren Shops. Then we walked inside and looked around the shops, some of the shops weren't even open yet. :) So then we walked to Somerset MRT station because we have to meet up with Lionel there. Once Lionel arrived we went straight for lunch because we were very very hungry. The first plan was to eat Indonesian food at Tambuhan Mas at Paragon but I wasn't feeling Indonesian food that day so instead we ate at Fish & Co. Their Fish & Chips are to die for.

That mall, Park Mall, sells the most beautiful furniture. The prices are also very beautiful.

I can't remember what this building is... I think it's the front entrance to Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

The Heeren Shops which houses I think 3 floors of HMV, a music store. :)


I guess you know who we are by now... yes that fish is the food mat or something...

Right after lunch we went straight to Takashimaya because Lionel had to meet the doctor. After that he went back to work so Amie and I roamed Orchard Road all by ourselves... until at ard 530pm where we had to meet up with him again and we had dinner at Burger King. The only burger I like is BK Doubles Swiss Mushroom. :) Love it...

We went to the DFS, next to Royal Plaza Hotel and then went to Isetan, CK Tang, Takashimaya again, Wisma Atria... hahah everywhere lah around Orchard Road. :)

Went back to the hotel using the MRT. It was a great experience. :)

Balik hotel... I was too tired but I couldn't sleep. I was going through the whole, first night on a different bed syndrome. hehe :)

I guess that's basically it...

More on day 2 tomorrow.. it was Vivocity and Bugis...
