Marina Bay
Sunday - August 6th 2023
Our first full day in Singapore. Due to the jetlag we got up early and headed
downstairs for breakfast and then we got ready for our day day exploring the
city. Since it was Sunday we walked through empty and quiet streets to Marina
Bay. There we took some pictures of the impressive skyline and checked out the
Fullerton Hotel before heading to
The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands. Our first stop was at Starbucks to get an iced coffee and the we just
strolled through the shopping center until we found the entrance to the
casino. Getting into the casino was an ordeal thanks to security, but
eventually we got in. The casino itself was huge, but underwhelming and
without gambling we left and checked out the shops instead. For lunch we
stopped at the food court and got smoothies and fried noodles.

After lunch Claudia and I were on our way to
Singapore Flyer. We had booked our tickets in advance, but there was no line at all and soon
we were able to board our gondola. From the ferris wheel we had an amazing
view over Marina Bay and Singapore's skyline. Back on the ground we got ice
cream before visiting
Gardens by the Bay. We purchased tickets for the Flower Dome, Cloud Forest and OCBC Skyway.
Since it was Sunday the domes were a little bit crowded, but it was still
okay. Gardens by the Bay were amazing, especially the Flower Dome was
fantastic with all its beautiful flowers. After the impressive botanic domes
we checked out the OCBC Skyway from where we had a great view on the massive
flower trees. In the afternoon we returned to our hotel and relaxed with a
couple of beers by the pool before heading out to Lau Pa Sat Food Market for
dinner. Today we got delicious Indian food, beers. shaved ice with mango and
durian, the most disgusting fruit I had ever tried. Not only did it smell
badly, but it tasted terrible as well. After that horrible fruit we went back
to our hotel.
