Went south to Sentosa Island and spent a leisurely day on Siloso Beach, with picnic... wandered around Clark Quay in the evening but decided against a happy hour beer at £14 a pint!
Cup of tea ☕️ sounds much nicer than a beer 🍻. What a lovely clear beach 🌊 take care Gem
Lyndsay McDonnellCan't believe a pint of beer costs £14 and we would certainly give it a miss. See that James has a new friend and love Louisa's new dress. Enjoy yourselves and take care. Lots of love Mom and Dad xxxx
