    August 23 in Singapore ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    Very fortunate with my run as it was dry and balmy. When I looked out on the balcony after my shower there was quite a storm blowing in. The rain had pretty much cleared away for my walk to brekkie. Because it was still undecided (rain/dry) and I was checking out late morning I had a relaxing balcony morning reading and reflecting on a great visit still happening. I walked to the train for the 2 station trip to City Hall. The Pullman is just around the corner from the station. Very impressive check in and then my suite - very very nice and an excellent way to see the trip out. I dashed out to the Long Bar (a block and a half away) to find a queue reaching from the bar door almost to the staircase. I am not about to queue up for an (albeit very good) overpriced cocktail that I have had before so I went back to the room and had a refreshing Tiger I had brought with me. I changed then caught a Grab to Maxwell Food Centre. It was Saturday lunch busy but a table became available (shared) after some laps. The congee lady was having a day off .so it was signature Maxwell oyster cake then an absolutely delicious Roti Prata. With time on my hands I walked back to the hotel via the old Police Station on Hill St. This inspiring building draws me back every time. Love being in a lux hotel and also enjoy being in a different part of this great city. The club lounge opens in a minute so l will head there and I am also hopeful the breakfast is as good as the place promises. I have a late checkout so I may give the Long Bar another crack tomorrow morning.Read more
