after some hasty preparation, we finally managed to fly to singapore last weekend.
sightseeing was the main priority so it didn’t really leave us enough time to do some shopping (which is a marginal relief to my pockets). as usual, orchard road was an irresistible magnet so i spent a few hours there and snapped a few pictures while browsing through the malls.
sadly though we weren’t able to visit Sentosa sland this time around (i still remember the last time we were there. i expect there has been a lot of changes since then so it’s a pity for me to miss it). we did manage to go on a midnight safari though. and that trip to the National Orchid Garden (the orchids were gorgeous!).
the night safari was a singular experience, but the real downer was that it was too dark for us to take good pictures of the creatures in there. the guides kept on admonishing us not to use our cameras because the flash would bother the animals. i was able to snap a few images, but the results (the images were simply too smudged or murky) leave a lot to be desired. oh well.
after 4 days, we’re finally back here in manila.
