• Day 104 - Singapore (Heading home!)

    December 20, 2023 in Singapore ⋅ 🌧 30 °C

    After 104 days travelling we are finally on our way back to the UK. Just 14 hrs to go now! We have still been busy today though! Started off with a trip to the observation deck at the Marina Bay Sands hotel. Over 300m high with an infinity pool spanning 3 separate buildings. It is really an amazing piece of engineering. After that we headed off to Raffles and the famous Long Bar. Taken back a bit by the empty peanut shells on the floor but apparently that is the tradition. These however were the most expensive drinks we have ever had. Two Singapore Slings were £60! They were clearly in demand though as there was a queue out the door when we left. Getting dark so we headed to the airport for some food and to see the indoor waterfall at the Jewel, a five story shopping centre within the airport with a rainforest theme. Very impressive engineering again!Read more
