Today we caught the bus out to the Botanic Gardens and then walked through the gardens and visited the Orchid Garden. Caught the bus part of the way back then walk down Orchard Road and looked at all the shops. At night we went out to the the lights at the Marina Bay Sands.
33 degrees today in Singapore. We went down to the Gardens by the Bay and this evening walked up to Bugis Street.
Arrived safely in Singapore. On the 24th floor of the Carlton which is just across the road from Raffles. Have a great view down to the harbour. The smog is really bad. Local schools have been closed and 2 days before we arrived the hotel was advising people not to go out.
Walked around the Louvre on our way to buy tickets for the next day. Visited the amazing shop called Lafayette where everything has a huge price tag.
Botanic gardens and walk along the river. Sat and watched the barges and boats on the river being controlled by traffic lights.
