Singapore

We landed in Singapore about 2pm so we had a bit of time to squeeze in some sightseeing that night. 
So we headed to our hotel, Hotel Royal @ Queens. Nice place, adequate for what we needed and not a bad location. 

View from our room - the Art Museum



We headed out on foot a block or two down the road to Raffles - what a beautiful place! Unfortunately I didn't get a pic of the front as I didn't realise it was around the corner!



 We kept walking towards the Singapore Flyer. It was a bit further than we thought but we could see it in the distance and just kept heading that direction! But on the way we did get to walk through a few shopping malls.
Great views from the Flyer.


Gardens by the Bay

Part of the F1 circuit

Stadium


A soccer field on a pontoon!

Marina Bay Sands
We then headed over to Marina Bay Sands for a quick look at the bay and the shops underneath


Then onto the Gardens by the Bay. It was getting dark by this time but we managed to squeeze in a quick look at the Cloud Dome - amazing!

The waterfall inside the dome





We then hopped into a taxi to our last stop for the night - Satay Street. They close this street off at 7pm and all the street vendors come out with their satay cookers - what a fun thing to do - and delicious satay!!


Whew - what a day! Back to the hotel for a much needed sleep!

Stay tuned!
