SIngapore Part 2

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. Lets continue with my Singapore trip part 2.

During my trip there me and steph stayed in The Hive Backpackers, it is a hostel. 1 reason why we choose a hostel instead of hotel is because hostel is cheap, and our main purpose to Singapore is to walk around the interesting places not staying in a high class hotel.

The hostel is kinda modest, but with an air con room what more can i ask. The bathroom though is shared. Our 3 nights stay cost us only $150. Personally i would recommend this hostel to everyone, it is very clean and the staff is friendly.

The Hive is located at Serangoon Rd just beside Boon Keng MRT

We headed to Harbour Front MRT station to get our tickets to Sentosa Island. Read more bout Sentosa Island here . In Sentosa we visited The Merlion, Butterfly Farm, Underwater World, Dolphin Lagoon and Tiger Sky Tower. We oso took the famous Luge ride and a skylift.

At night we enjoy a beautiful display of laser lights and water art in Songs Of The Sea. This is a show not to be miss for those that visited Sentosa Island for the first time.
