Day four

Day four (post-posted!)

We’re sitting here in Singapore airport waiting for our plane so thought we’d take the opportunity to write today’s (Wednesday’s) blog. Today we got up and packed our stuff and headed to the water front to go on the Singapore Flyer. It’s the world’s largest observation wheel and is much like the London Eye. It’s a bit better actually, because they give you an information audio guide which tells you a little about each of the things that you can see. The view was really good despite the cloudy weather. The view over Marina Bay was particularly good as we were able to see a massive new development from the air. We also could see the F1 track and pit-lane, which was pretty cool.

After the Flyer we went to a few nearby shopping malls where I found two nice dresses and a particularly lovely pair of shoes they’re so pretty!!!

That’s about it for today – just waiting to get on our flight to Cairns. A bit disappointed as we specifically chose a Qantas flight and they’ve stuck us on a JetStar (Aus equivalent to Ryanair) flight instead which is in a tiny plane and has to stop in Darwin; rather than the non-stop flight we had requested. There better be TVs and food! Also, we aren’t sitting next to each other; as we have different surnames they didn’t place us together. A bit stupid so hopefully someone will move to let us sit together. It’s not the first time Singapore has been confused about the lack of marital status actually; the check in staff were very confused at the hotel. Just goes to show that whilst modern on the outside, somethings stay quite antiquated (although it’s quite nice that Mark always gets given the bill!!) Oh well, hopefully it’ll be alright.

Love, Us xxxx
