It is always fun to visit other countries especially if the travel time is not more than 5 hours. That actually is the benchmark that I consider every time I travel with my parents when I was still a kid, and probably until now. More than 5 hours inside a car or a plane bores me to death. It's a good thing that SIN city can be reached in 3 hours. :)
It's one of my favorite places. It is not the famous Sin City. It is an airport code. Other travel experts can relate to that, and so are the residents of the city who travels by plane a lot.
Walking around the city and enjoying the views of the building is just like walking in the city of Makati, and the river somehow is the same as Pasig River. What makes it different is the cleanliness of the place. I can safely say that I can eat one whole week at the hawker outlets without getting sick.
Spotting another difference? The giant Merlion at the Singapore River! But we also have a giant shoe in the river of Marikina. Is that a valid basis of comparison? :D Both are giants anyway.
I spend most of my time near the river area every time I go here. I may be a boring kid, but the view delights me and brings back childhood memories. Plus the addition of the Marina Bay Sands and the giant ferris wheel and the esplanade makes the river picture perfect!
Staying within the river area until night time unleashes the ghost in me. All I need to do is stroll to Clarke Quay, and I can party all night long and disappear in the dark.
The tram is my fave mode of transfer. I carry a map with me all the time. I like the feeling of being a tourist! Haha!
I also ride the bus when I feel like I want to be lost and feel less smart.
Going to Sentosa? I prefer the cable cars more than the Sentosa Express. I love the feeling of being up there.
Visit to SIN city is not complete without touchbasing with the animals and it's better to visit them at night.
Care for some adventures? There's a lot, but I have one favorite, right across Clarke Quay.
And how can we leave the city without spending time with relatives and friends? They'll bring you to good restaurants and shopping outlets and spend time with you just laughing about almost everything.
Life is fun. Enjoy the most of it while it's here. Enjoy it with the people that matters most to you.
