We landed very early at 6.15am. Amazing service at Changi Airport - within 45 minutes of landing we were off the plane, traveled the transfer train, through customs, picked up our luggage and then on the train to the city. Super efficient Singaporeans.
We stayed at the same hotel as our last trip in 2018 (D'Hotel). Good standard and reasonably priced. Not in the centre but very easy to hop back and forwards on the MRT to the bayfront.
On arrival we did get an early check in but had to twiddle our thumbs for 3 hours until we got into our room. After 13 hours flight and only 25 minutes sleep, jetlag started to kick in. I felt like the earth was shaking. 😂
I've been told many times that you should stay up for as long as possible the day you arrive. Very sorry but by 11am I was showered and in bed asleep🛌 for about 5 hours. Which was great at the time, until it was time to go to bed later. That's the fun of long haul travel. 😴
As we've been here before we did not revisit Raffles or major sightseeing spots. But we did go down to Marina Bay to take some photos and also eat with the locals in the reasonably priced shopping mall food court. Check out my Instagram and Facebook for the amazing video of the Rain Oculus 😀
Marina Bay Sands looks amazing in the day but even better at night. When we go back in March 2023 I will definitely get to the Gardens by the Bay at night to share some more photos.
Singapore has been a very short stop to *try* and acclimatise to the climate and timezone. After 48 hours we move onto Malaysia and the fun of the land border crossing.
I saw this great poster in the public toilets on my way out of Singapore 😂
