Trying out the local breakfast
Hmmmm... Porridge with chicken!!!!
Porridge is made with rice and has onions and a raw egg at the bottom - surprisingly tasty! Oh my god so now I'm like over half way through my trip and I'm starting my travels through S.E Asia - unbelievable, time is wizzing by.
After a tiresome 21 hours of flying / transitting at airports I arrived into Singapore Airport grabbed a taxi to Chinatown and caught a few Zzzzzzz
Singapore is actually really nice but 3 days is deffinately enough time to see/do everything unless you wanna shop for England you can spend months here!!
I shopped alittle along Orchard Road (who wouldn't) but not for clothes - I got my self a gadget for my digital camera - a underwater casing, so I can get some awesome pictures when scuba diving! I say that is an essential item - but it does take up a fair amount of space in my itsy bitsy backpack. After a long day walking around the shops in Little India, Chinatown, Orchard Road we planned to go to the Night Safari which we did but we were so tired I didn't really take it in.. but the animals were beautiful - some creatures there I've never seen or heard of before.
Whilst in Singapore I did the tradditional
thang that every tourist to Singapore HAS to do and thats to go for the infamous Singapore Sling cocktail at The Raffles Hotel. It wasn't glitzy like I imagined it but was so cool to eat monkey nuts and throw the shell onto the floor - I felt like a devil as I would never do anything like that in London - and the cocktail was tasty but very exspensive so only stay for one and made our way onto Sentosa to see the fountain light show - was pretty spectacular, which we were lucky to see as its being discontinued to house a 5* resort in its place - shame!!
I found Singapore so cheap for food coming from Oz and New Zealand, I was paying 50p for a noodle dish which was yummy and fruit - oh my god fruit is so much cheaper - I can healthy eating coming back into action!!!
