Singapore trip
One of the recent business trips to Singapore.
Loads of pictures. Less words.
This is KLIA's toilet. Later compare it with Changi's toilet ok?
Inside Singapore airlines..
Take off..
On air...
Look at the river...nice right? Like the map in my Form 3 Geography text book, he he:-) I always insist on taking the window seat and specify that i don't want to sit so near the wing...but i usually end up getting a place where i could see the wing in its full glory :-(
Landing...check out how the wing modifies itself, like Volvo C70...
Changi Airport.
Changi's toilet. :-)
In the taxi with my vendors, heading to the office.
My hotel. Crown Prince. Nice right?
A huge bed all for myself. A real relief from my small single bed back at the place I'm staying. I slept really well:-). Wrapped myself with the blanket and found it hard to get out of my self made cocoon in the morning...The aircond was darned cold!
The view outside from my hotel room window. (During the day)
Messing with the camera. Bored ler..
Walking down the streets in Orchard Road for dinner.
Dinner at Coca Restaurant. It was steamboat dish. Seafood steamboat with crabs, lobster, vege, mushrooms, prawns, and mussels.
My first morsel.
The food was ok. Too bland for my spiced Indian tongue. But the sauce, some Thai styled type was so yummy...i almost wanted to drink it. :D I had two helpings of that sauce ;-)
The aftermath. :-)
Lively orchard road. It's a streetful of shopping complexes. Like a clubbing scene minus the pubs, people were dressed up and the streets were well lit. The Great Singapore Sale was going on when i was there.The lady at the Crown Prince hotel where we all stayed handed me this brochure. Only to me as the rest of the gang with me were males. Not sure what she was implicating..guys don't shop? :P
Not really that cheap if you convert it to our currency. The exchange rate was 2.3 at the time i was there.
I bought a bar of chocolate to eat in the room. They sell mostly Australian made chocolates.
Enjoying my chocolate while watching World Cup match happily in my hotel room ;-)
Now u see...
Now you don't...:D
The view outside from my hotel room window, at night.
The view from my hotel lift.
One of the good things about having a client who deals with fast moving consumer goods is that you get fed well...when we were there, there was always a lady who came to ask us if we have enough munchies in the room, provided drinks and also two 2L cartons of orange juice and crackers and sweets, until one of my vendors said, 'lets take that lady back home, no one bothers about us in the Malaysian office':-D...and every single corner in the place has something about food, either boxes of food or pictures of food...made me hungry all the time...
More of Singapore..
It's extremely easy to get a cab in singapore. And their call center is automated and you get a taxi coming your way in less than 10 minutes. You don't even have to call them twice. The automated machine calls you back and informs you when the taxi has arrived. It was a huge relief from what i face almost everyday other day in Malaysia. They should implement this over here...
The way back-----------------
Inside Changi..
While waiting for my flight, trying to pass the time ;-)
Inside the flight...still trying to pass time before take off..
Doesn't this remind you of Night Shamalan's movie?
Coffee! Damn yucky!
That's it...Ciaoz...
