Trip to Singapore




The whole trip was tiring but enjoyable..

Day 1
Reached Singapore at around 8am, by train..Ivan picked us up from Woodland train station before sending my sis to Changi Airport..(she was on duty on that day)..had a quick breakfast at Mcds.. Then, went to sis's place at Pasir Ris to drop our luggage and MC was there to welcome us..Later in the noon, she took us for a tour to the city..One thing good about Spore was that the transportation system was really convenient..you can go anywhere by MRT..as Ivan said, its hard to get lost in Spore..We went to Bugis, City Hall, Orchard, China Town, Takashimaya etc..we had 'xiao long bao' for teatime..actually, nothing special about the 'xiao long bao'..the skin was kinda thick.. Then, later at night, we went to The Oriental Hotel (where the wedding dinner was gonna be held) to meet up with aunty and family.. Aunty was so excited and happy for her eldest son is getting married tomorrow till she realised she forgotten to bring something important from home..the word '喜喜'..so, I tried to cut out the word using the papers we got it from the hotel..and ta ta..I managed to do so and it was pretty good..however, in future, I think I wanna cut it into a love shape to replace the '口'..
Ivan came to pick us from the hotel and we went to Changi again, to pick up sis..then had Ramen for dinner..

Day 2-The wedding day
Early in the morning, we went to the hotel to meet up with cousins..we were asked to follow KS to the bride's house..迎接新娘..KS was very sporting and did pretty well for all the challenges from the 'ji mui' ..there were 3 major tasks..of which if he failed, his 'xiong di' had to be punished-applying nail polish in each fingers for one wrong answer..
KS even sang a love song to the bride..it was so romantic..praise God for this newly-wed couple and may the Lord bless their marriage.
Buffet dinner at night was nice and classy..the oysters were fresh and yummy..wide variety of food, desserts..and the environment was just perfect for such a memorable day..

Day 3-Departure
Again, gotta woke up early as we are going home by train..820am..the ride was 8 hours..haha..can you imagine what sis and I gonna do in the train??...we met these 2 old woman and chatted with them..they were praising us for being helpful, pretty, good etc..:p

It was a short trip..and I didn't manage to meet my friends also...hopefully will have a chance to visit Singapore during Christmas..
