My Adventures at the Lion City Part 1

Last week, my mum and I went to Singapore. I took a break from taking photos of my handmade flower tutorials. We only stayed a few days but my feet were so angry from walking! We usually leave the hotel at 10am and go back at 10pm! I didn’t shop for pretty stuff this time. All I cared about was eating and taking photos of one of my favorite cities. My internet in our accommodation was not so good plus the computer I brought with me to send the tutorials and to reply from messages was so ancient that it took me a good 30 minutes to reply on each message! I’m not exaggerating.

The great Singapore Flyer that greeted us when we arrived in Singapore.

W Hotel

My mum and I stayed in a budget hotel along Beach Road. We went to see my sister who stayed at W Hotel in Sentosa. It was a newly opened hotel last September. All I can say is this is one of the most photogenic hotels I have ever been! My sister’s spacious suite had a plunge pool, a living room, a powder room, a master’s bedroom, and a really elegant bath that was a lot bigger than our hotel room at Econ Inn (lol).

The hotel’s stylist’s attention to detail is superb…that’s the master bedroom’s headboard.

Bencoolen Link / Waterloo Street

Me and my bad sense of direction. Despite the warnings of our inn’s receptionist, mummy and I attempted to walk from Beach Road to Little India. Well, we failed and took the cab. But before we took the cab, we stumbled upon Bencoolen Link / Waterloo Street that has a lot of interesting sites.

The store owner, whom I call “Uncle”, gave the directions to Little India to my mummy…we still failed to get to Little India on foot. Uncle was really nice.
