Family Trip to Singapore

[19th nov-21st nov 2008]



Day 1


We left 1U at 10.00 and took the Aeroline bus there. The journey took around 51/2 hours.


As usual went through the immigration and customs thing and yeah, when I walked through the metal detector the alarm started to ring. Memalukan larr.. I just told the woman it was my belt then she body-checked me and all. And my dumb bro suggested that my braces caused the alarm to ring.cheh.


And then we reached S’pore around 3.30pm.And my uncle took us to Changi Beach Resort to check in. Really nice place!


Then I took a walk with my Dad at the Changi Point Boardwalk. It’s a really long boardwalk with many sections like Kelong Walk (where u can see ppl fishing), Sailing Walk (a LOT of sailing boats + u can see those really nice sailing club houses), etc…


Didn’t do much that day.Just met up with my cousin and uncle and aunty and my 2 nieces for dinner. x)




Day 2


We went to the Singapore Zoo with my uncle and 2 nieces.


And OF COURSE we had to go see the famous white tigers that killed the Malaysian zookeeper.
Which reminds me, what exactly happened to that m’sian guy?


Malaysian version: Malaysian zookeeper fell into the tiger’s area and got killed.

OR

Singapore version: He wanted to commit suicide, called his family members to the zoo and evertyhing and said bye to them.then he went into the tiger habitat.halfway he changed his mind suddenly and wanted to come out, but was too late and the tiger killed him.


Anywayyyy, went to see all the animals.warthogs,hippos,polar bears,etc…
And yup,my 7 year old niece is VERY amused by the baboons red butts. x)


And I even held a boa constrictor! Scary larr, can feel all the muscles moving when the snake moved.and the tail was curling around my hand.ahh!


But couldn’t see the whole zoo coz it’s really huge!And it rained halfway.


Then we went back to another hotel near Orchard Road to check in. Spent the whole evening with my family & nieces in the hotel.


At night,went to Novena 2 Square for dinner.




Day 3


Spent the whole day in Orchard Road shopping!! I bought sport shoes there. :)
And went for lunch in some club my uncle joins.
Then I went with my mom and dad to walk around Orchard Road. We even passed Emerald Hill Road to see all the old-fashioned buildings.really nice!


And for dinner, we went to another club my uncle joined. (which makes me wonder why s’poreans like to join so many many clubs)


At night, I went with my dad to walk around the place. Great weather + I love the way Singapore has walkways and zebra-crossings so that it’s so easy to walk all over the place. x)




Day 4


Basically we got ready to go home. Took a taxi to HarbourFront Centre.The taxi driver was real friendly :)
Hung around in the shopping mall. Then took the bus back to Malaysia. And all the bus they were showing Balls of Fury –super borriiinnnggg show, seems to me it’s all about ping-pong and fierce people. But they also showed a lot of episodes of Friends, so had quite a good laugh. x)


And no,no metal detector in the M’sian customs so yeah,no embarrassing incidents. :p



So, that’s ends my trip.
Haha,I love vacations!
