Singapore.
Hi all. Just landed safely in Bali and catching up with great friends and my family.
We were in Singapore for 3 days. Met some great people and went to some great places.
I have to say for me Singapore did not feel like part of our asian trip. The country is so westernized but in a different way. Almost sterile I personally found.
Day one I attempted to complete #operationiohone5 without success ending in an all out argument with a store owner who stated one price as the 'final price' and preceded to charge my credit card SNG$300 more. When I refused to sign the print out due tot he higher figure he stated he would charge my credit card any way .. Ha don't play that game with me sweetness. I was on the phone to my credit card company in Australia and they put a note on my file for any suspect transactions to be blocked. Good luck matey
So after my tantrum Frankie, his friend with whom we stayed and I headed off to NO SIGNBOARD seafood restaurant. A must for chili crab enthusiasts. A word of warning. Do not take dates here. Crab eating is not a silver service type event. You have to get into and suck every morsel of meat from the poor dead crustacean.
Day 2 we headed to the universal studios Singapore and later a beach club to cool off
Day3 slow start but finished with a bang. Trip to marina bay sands and a club called Avalon last night for the Singapore manhunt model contest. Was very exclusive. Lucky we had some friends who sorted it all for us.
PS #operationiohone5 was sorted out in Singapore.
