Singapore April 4th
Singapore is an absolutely beautiful city. Lush greenery everywhere, and absolutely the cleanest city you will ever see. We docked at the new Cruise Center, and made our way through the Cruise Center Mall, to the street, where we hired a taxi to take us to Merlion Park, on the waterfront. Directly across from the spouting Merlion, is the new Singapore concert center, which locals have dubbed the Durien, because it resembles the infamous smelling Durien fruit, a favorite fruit in this area.
From Merlion Park, we followed the monument trail which took us along the river until reaching Raffles Place. Monuments depicting Singapore history, and it’s former leaders are situated along the way. From Raffles Place, we headed over to China town where we stopped at a restaurant we had visited on our earlier stop in Singapore, for Peking Duck. We then walked through the streets of China town, then took a cab back to the ship. Tomorrow will be Kuala Lumpur

Did you stop for a Singapore Sling at Raffles?
ReplyDeleteDid that the last time there, so decided to do something different this time. Great news about Alan and Elizabeth!
