Back to Singapore

We had another couple of days in Singapore and did the more touristy sightseeing things as Pie had arrived to join us.

This meant the Long Bar in the Raffles Hotel, drinking Singapore Slings and throwing monkey nut shells on the floor.

We went to a bar at the top of the Swissotel building to get some good views of the skyline of Singapore at night (and drink some Tiger of course!).

And then there was Sentosa island. Singapore does everything in an organised and efficient manner, and that includes cheesy and tacky touristy resorts. There was even a tourist academy, presumably to teach the Singaporeans the best and most efficient way to take tourists’ money.

And finally we saw Boat and Clark Quay, very touristy areas, which were the only places in Singapore we were pestered and hassled during our stay. I finished off my evening drinking a sample set of beers from a microbrewery on the Clark Quay.
