Rediscovering Singapore

Rediscovering Singapore

As you are reading this post, I’m aboard Singapore Airlines en route to Singapore, perhaps trying to get some sleep due to lack of it as caused by packing and writing this post at 2am earlier.

Ok, honestly, I was too excited to sleep. I don’t know why. I’m usually this excited only when it is my first time to travel to a place. I’ve been to Singapore in 2008 and 2009. This would be my third.

I think it’s the thought of going to the new Marina Bay Sands. I only see it on the Internet, magazines, and TV, having only opened late last year.

I can still remember when I was watching the last season of The Amazing Race Asia where The Richards (Philippine Team) won an accommodation/tour to the Marina Bay Sands for landing first in the pit stop of a certain leg. How much I wished I could be there too.

And today, at 5:30pm, that will come true. 🙂 It’s high time to rediscover Singapore, I guess.

I wonder if I would be able to pass by Sago Lane near Maxwell Food Center (Chinatown) again. 🙂

Aside from the Marina Bay Sands main highlight, I am also excited for the Singapore Food Trail. I heard it’s Singapore’s newest major foodie spot right beside the Singapore Flyer (the last time I went there in 2009, it was just an empty lot/parking lot). 🙂

I would like to thank the Singapore Tourism Board for this media familiarization opportunity to see the new and transformed Singapore. Indeed, every time I go back to Singapore, there is something new to discover.
