Busy 2 Days


Charlie & family arrived on SQ220 (A380!) on Thursday afternoon. Was already at the airport waiting for them. Managed to get 2 days off ....just nice!

When they came out, I was shocked with the amount of luggage! So many pieces! How to fit into 1 cab????!!!!!! Thank goodness, we managed to get a Maxicab....
Checked them into the hotel (Orchard Grand Court) and then left them to unpack and rest before meeting them for dinner.

Brought them to Chinatown and showed them the Buddha Relic Temple. Planned to bring them to The Soup Restaurant......no longer there! Quickly called up 100 and located one at Suntec Tower 4 basement. Took a cab there and finally settled them for dinner. Dinner was delicious.... nice restaurant....

Showed them the fountain and let them walk around it for good luck. Sent them back to hotel and went back to office... Diana and some others were still in the office! Managed to clear my work..... so tired....

Another long day....met them up at 10:30am. Fist stop was Raffles Place. Showed them the vicinity and then Singapore River, The Fullerton, Merlion, Esplanade and then to VivoCity for lunch. They got to try prata, fried prawn mee, fried carrot cake, ngoh hiong and even ice kacang! After lunch, off to Ngee Ann City where I let them loose to shop around while I sneak off for my coffee.

Then, went to Bugis and showed them the famous Kuan Yin Temple. Then back to hotel to rest. Managed to get home and rested a while before I went to meet them for dinner.
Brought them to Jumbo for seafood dinner. It was a good meal. They were fortunate enough to see the light up tonight at Singapore River, with floats. Walked around Clarke Quay before sending them back to the Hotel..It has certainly been a long day for me..... really tough for me! Hahahaha!

Would be at the hotel to see them off...... Safe and enjoyable trip to Hong Kong & China!
