Shops, shops and more shops! Singapore seems to be a city full of shopping malls! We wandered all the way along Orchard Road which I think is their shopping street, although we had no money for shopping so wasn't very productive. We went to go for a Singapore Sling at Raffles - where the drink itself was invented, although they cost $25 (singapore) each! So just had a little looksee around and quickly departed haha... We checked out Bugis street market - the largest in Singapore, where we found a cool little dodgey looking food court and got ourselves some pork mince fish ball noodle soup for about 1 pound each :-) It was absolutely bucketing down with rain so thought this would kill some time until the storm blew over. It was the first time in sooo long that I've experienced a summer storm - it was great! The humidity, the smells.... ahhhh.... memories of home....
We walked down to the river and had a little look at the cute restaurants along the river but it was pouring rain so got the metro back to the hostel for a nap and then a pork bun! (thats food)
Singapore was lovely although a day was really enough, we were ready to hit the beaches!!
