Description
Another busy day walking around and back to Sentosa. Beaches (Siloso, Palawan, Tongjeng), billy carts (luges), and the southern most point of continental Asia. And almost lost my phone. That was scary.
Today’s food samplings included:-Tim Hortons for coffee and donuts, which were as good as what’s available in Canada.-Then up to the food court at Vivocity at the Sentosa sky train for water jiaozi, roast duck, and kaya sandwiches by Toast Box. Lots of carbs!-Evening time we tried Mr. Coconut, a coconut milk shake.-Popiah = some sort of roll-And A&W… which was nothing like in Canada.
Off to the Gardens by the Bay for a light show at night and a walk back to the hotel with a stopover at the Merlion.
And the underground skate scene in Singapore… how is it? Quite in the open.
