At long last the time finally arrived. We were off! After a few cheeky airport beers we boarded an Etihad Airways flight bound for Singapore.
Flying over the Gulf of Caprenteria, East Timor and Indonesia, I must say the level of service and attention Etihad gave all of their passengers on the flight were outstanding. I never had an empty drink in front of me.
Walked out of the fragrant Changi Airport and headed straight into a taxi for our hotel in Geylang, Singapore's 'Red Light District'. More on that in the next blog.
We ventured into the metropolis and finally hailed down a cab to check out Marina Bay Sands. After being denied access to the top of Marina Bay Sky Park (I wasn't wearing long pants), we wandered down to The Singapore Flyer for 165 metre high spectacular views of absolutely everything.
We were exhausted. Stuffed. We stumbled back across the bridge and went home to the hotel. The room is tiny. My feet and ankles hang off the rock hard bed but my gees I slept like a baby.
That ends day one. Tomorrow we tackle Singapore head on! Can't wait!
