Singapore Day 1

Finally I flew to Singapore to celebrate Christmas with Steph, its a dream come true indeed.

After almost half year planning and nervousing, we finally made it to Singapore.

FYI this is my first time boarding on a plane damn i was nervous. The feeling is great, i felt like floating in the sky when the plane took off.
Our Plane

We reached Changi International Airport at 2220 sharp.After walking out from the plane we headed to the Immigration Check where i get my brand new passport stamped for the first time. YAY! Then we went for our luggages, Changi is very efficient coz our luggage has already arrive by the time we are there. Very fast indeed.


Changi Airport

Singapore really surprise me how systematic they are, everything are planned and executed nicely even the taxi service are superb. I don't need to wait long for my cab coz they have some guys directing the cab for us. All we need to do is wait at the allocated taxi stand and the person will direct u to an empty cab. The cost from Changi Airport to Orchard road only cost around $20 which to me is very reasonable. Unlike the taxi from our bolehland, singapore's taxi are metered all of them. The taxi driver even wait for us to drop our luggage to our hostel.

When we reached orchard road, the roads leading inside was super jam. We have to walk inside as the taxi driver said its impossible to go inside with car, he is very nice to drop us nearby orchard road where we only walk around 10minutes to get there.

Once there, i was facinated by the decorations there, it is really bright! According to uncle taxi, the decoration this few years are not as last time. Still, to me it is really facinating.

Orchard Road

There was lots of foam flying around when the clock hits 12am. Me and Steph manage to get to a safe location which is directly under the ERP Signboard.

After that we headed back to our hostel to get our well deserved rest.

Stay tune for Day 2 :P
