..السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته
Alhamdulillah.. Our family getaway went well. Was pretty nervous on how Little I will behave throughout the trip but all the feeling went down the drain.. Really impress with the litle guy. He's very friendly and despite anything, semua orang kan ditagurnya!!
Son is pretty fond of airplanes and trains so you can imagine how excited he went to see them going all 'Wooooowwww....plaaaaannnneeeee!!!!!' at the airport and 'Traaaaaaaiiiinnn!!!' at the MRT stations!! Upon boarding at the gate mesti seated by the window so that he can view all the people working...It's good to know that he can be a stress reliever, semua they smiled and waved at him from down below hehehe and Alhamdulillah, he slept all the way through the flight. Mama and Babah were all smiles! ☺️
Went to all places we've planned back in Brunei like :
- Universal Studio
- S.E.A Aquarium
- Singapore Flyer
- The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands
- Orchard Road (iON, Wisma Atria, Ngee Ann City etc) and we only depended on the MRT!! Bought a $20 worth of Singapore Tourist Pass for 3 days that provide us UNLIMITED travels all around the Lion City via MRT and its buses. Value for money right?!!
Managed to get some stuffs for Little I, got a few clothing items aaaaannnd my long awaited Geox Respira shoes!! Kalau diikutkan mcm kan buy sampai 3 pairs but I'm soooo in love with the one I bought...

Didn't manage to get any handbags this time, hehe ah well... the one ordered online is already something! Disappointed I was yes.. then again, banyak masih my bags yg belum worn off. So, I just let it pass this time around... kumpul2 $$$ dulu hehe
Hubs too got his targetted itemssss... Yes, banyak bh olehnya. True what some ppl say, when MEN shop, they reaaaaally shop!!! Then we went on satisfying our cravings at Krispy Kreme doughnuts.. daily dosage of the original glazed for breakfast at the hotel.... nyum!! Even Little.I is satisfied! *lol*
Speaking of hotel... got a tiny problem with my reservation. Thinking that we could save some $$$ I reserved our stay at the V Hotel Lavender.... my review??? Stayed there on the night of the arrival and checked out the next day!!! Yes! The room was so small... good for those who travel light i.e backpackers. Has a small gerai that sell halal meal tho but it's just not for a family. I can even tell that Little.I pun inda kesiukkan in the hotel. Didn't get a good night sleep and ended up making a reservation for the rest of our stay at Royal Plaza On Scotts... Stayed here once and has always remembered the ultimate comfort of the bed and spending my days walking back and forth from Orchard to the hotel *lol*
So why didn't I booked RP in the first place you all asked?? Pasal they don't have any offer back then and it's expensive! LUCKILY though on my last minute booking (directly from the hotel website) via my phone.. it has an offer which we can't refuse... almost 60% off the regular price (well, I may be exaggerating here.. but it was way cheaper that I surfed on before the trip!) Husband was satisfied with the comfort, Little.I was very happy with the space provided even for a mere superior room... everything about RP is just how we imagine it would be. Plus the MRT stations not that far off jua.... simply going from one spot to another via underpasses and making sure we went at the right exit! Alhamdulillah, since we've planned our journey sudah... we've managed! :) Kinda reminded me of the London tubes... and that Singapore Tourist Pass is a saviour! No need to buy MRT day tickets, it's one off and you can exit at any train stations!! Yes- ANY!!! Oh- except going to Sentosa ofcourse.. the sentosa express is a different train from Vivocity Mall which cost you just $4.00/person and it is a return tix. Would love to ride the cable car but since we were chasing the time... nda lah we jadi. Would be fun tho... maybe next time when all the kids are big enough to enjoy all the rides or probably, just us (Me & Hubs) hehe.... insya-Allah~
Until my next entry.... xoxo~
