SINGAPORE AND CITY WALKING TOUR
Arriving and catching a taxi to our hotel
The Perak Hotel in LIttle India - perfect!
We meet up with our travel buddies Greg and Shandy - Shandy and V tucking into a pre walk drink
We cab it to Raffles Hotel - Greg gets a nice fan to cool down in the front seat
The famous Raffles Hotel
Shandy and I making our way to the Long Bar
Check out the prices of those cocktails - we won't be staying here long ;-)
V tucks into a Singapore Sling - not much for US$30!
The Long Bar
We carry on walking the streets of Singapore
St Andrews Cathedral
The Singapore Cricket Club
The stunning skyline in this beautiful city
The new casino and hotel complex being built - huge and impressive!
We make it to the river
Greg plots our journey to Clarkes Quay
Time for a rest...
... and a jug of Tiger Beer
Clarkes Quay is amazing, full of bars and restaurants
Time for dinner at Marakesh
V and Shandy tucking into some wine and toasting our second last night on tour
A big party and fashion show kicks off
We decide to cab it back to Little India
Our local bar in Singapore - The Prince of Wales
The boys are getting smashed
The girls enjoy some cocktails
We are even treated to some live entertainment
A DAY AT SENTOSA
Making our way to this adventure island
The sky train crossing the water to the island
Shandy and V enjoying the ride...
Crossing into this amazing adventure island which is still being built


First stop the Luge ride - Greg and Shandy catch the cable car for their "race"
And there is no doubt Shandy is the clear winner, despite Greg's later protests ;-)
Next stop the Wavehouse
The wave machine and how you are supposed to surf
Shandy and I prefer to relax in the shade!
Greg is up and away and looking good
Before finally wiping out! Still lasted much longer than I would have
After all that exercise it's time to hit the beach
Looking for a good spot to relax
Another scorching day in Singapore
Our beach is lovely, despite all the tankers cruising past
Time to leave and we pass this huge lizard
V bids a final farewell
We are back at our local enjoying the Super 14 rugby
The start of another big night
Making the most of the last night of our trip!
The bustling streets of Little India at night
Greg is challenged to finish a pint through a straw in 15 seconds - we think it's impossible!
Until they whip the chef out the kitchen who does it in 14 seconds - wow!
Goodbye to our amazing friends Greg and Shandy who have been such fun to travel with - it's back to London tomorrow as our trip finally comes to an end!
