WELL ANOTHER TOILET STORY FOR YA, IN JAPAN IT WAS SUPER HIGH TECH TOILETS BUT IN SINGAPORE IT IS A SHOWER AND A TOILET IN THE SAME ROOM, SO WHEN YOU ARE HAVING A SHOWER THE TOILET AND EVERYTHING IS GETTING SOAKED IT IS SOO STRANGE BUT I GUESS THAT IS HOW THEY DO IT HERE, SO THERE IS NO ENTRY THAT BATHROOM EVER WITH OUT SHOES LOL
BUT THIS MORNING WE WOKE UP AND WENT DOWNSTAIRS FOR OUR CONTINTIAL BREAKFEST WHICH WAS FREE AND A REASON WHY WE BOOKED THIS HOSTEL, BUT I WAS DISAPOINTED TO FIND OUT BREAKFEST WAS ONLY COFFEE AND WHITE TOAST WITH PEANUT BUTTER JAM, NOT EXTRAGEVENT LIKE I WAS THINKING, BUT IT WAS FREE AND MY BACKPACKING BUDGET LOVED IT :(
THIS MORNING WE WHERE OFF TO SENTOSA IT IS A SMALL ISLAND RIGHT BESIDE SINGAPORE, WE CAUGHT THE MRT (TRAIN THERE) IN SINGAPORE THE TRAIN STATION IS SUPER HIGH TECH WHEN YOU PURCHASE YOUR TICKET IT IS ALL TOUCH SCREEN AND YOU TICKET IS A CARD LIKE A DEBIT CARD AND YOU SCAN IT TO GET ON THE TRAIN. SEEMS VERY HI-TECH HERE
WHEN WE GOT TO SENTOSA WE MET A COUPLE FROM EDMONTON WE RECONGIZED THEM BECAUSE THEY WHERE WEARING A CAPITAL X BACK PACK, WE APPROACHED THEM AS WHERE LOST AND LOOKING FOR THE BEACH AND SO WHERE THEY SO WENT TO FIND THE BEACH TOGETHER, IT WAS FUN MEETING THEM AS THEY SPOKE GOOD ENGLISH AND WE COULD UNDERSTAND THEM COMPARED TO EVERYONE ELSE ! SINGAPORE FIRST LANGUAGE IS ENGLISH BUT A LARGE POPULATION IS CHINESSE, BUT HERE THE LOCALS ARE ALOT BETTER AT ENGLISH THEN THE JAPANESSE SO IT IS A RELIEF.
WHEN WE FOUND THE BEACH WE WHERE WELCOMED TO WHITE SANDS AND PALM TREES, WE WALKED THE BEACH AND IT JUST SEEMED TO GO FOREVER, WITH TONS OF RESTUARNTS AND BEACH ACTIVITYS ALONG THE SHORE, THEY EVEN HAD A PLACE ON THE BEACH WHICH WAS A POOL THAT YOU COULD PRACTISE SURFING IN, IT LOOKED REALLY FUN.
IN SENTOSA THERE IS A UNDERGROUND AQUARIUM SO WE DECIDED TO GO THERE THE AQUARIUM HAS SOME OF THE WEIRDEST LOOKING FISH AND EVEN HAD A SKELOTON OF A JAPANNESSE CRAB, THE CRAB WAS TALLER THEN ME ! I WOULD HATE TO SEE THAT CRAWLING ON THE BEACH, BUT I WOULD SURE LIKE TO EAT THOSE CRAB LEGS! IN THE AQUAIRUM THEY ALSO HAD JELLY FISH WHICH I HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE THEY CONTINUE TO CHANGE COLOURS FROM BLUE RED GREEN AND YELLOW, THEY LOOKED REALLY COOL BUT ARE SUPER DANGEROUS POSIONOUS. THE AQUAIRIUM ALSO HAD A ELECTRIC BELT YOU STOOD ON AND A TUBE SHAPED AQUAIRUM OVER TOP OF YOU AND THE BELT TOOK YOU AROUND WELL THE FISH SWAM OVER YOU THERE WAS MANY DIFFERENT FISH SHARKS STINGRAYS AND FISH I DIDNT EVEN KNOW.! THE ALSO HAD GIANT SEA TURTLES THEY WHERE REALLY COOL TO SEE.
I DID SWIM IN THE OCEAN IT WAS REALLY WARM , JOSIE HAD FORGOTTEN HER BIKINI BOTTOMS SO SHE DID NOT COME IN SO I FLOATED MYSELF. THE DAYS TEMPURTURE WAS 30 DEGREE AND CLOUDY BUT I STILL GOT A SUNBURN! THERE WAS ALSO ALOT OF INDIAN PEOPLE THERE AGAIN AND THE INDIAN GIRLS WHERE ALL WRAPPED I FELT BAD THEY MUST HAVE BEEN SO HOT , AND I WAS WALKING AROUND IN A SUNDRESS THEY DIDNT GIVE ME THE BEST LOOKS!
JOSIE DID GET A FISH REFLEXOLOGY AND A MASSAGE AT THE BEACH, THE FISH REFLEXOLOGY IS WHERE THE FISH EAT ALL THE DEAD SKIN OFF YOUR FEET, SHE REALLY ENJOYED IT AND HER FEET WHERE REALLY SMOOTH! I WILL HAVE TO TRY THAT WHEN I GET HOME!
AFTER THE DAY OF THE BEACH AND THE GREEN PLANTS EVERYWHERE WE WENT BACK TO THE HOSTEL BUT ON OUR WAY WE STOPPED IN AT THE MALL, THE MALL HAD THE COOLEST CLOTHES YOU HAVE EVER SEEN, I WILL COME BACK TO SINGAPORE JUST LIKE JAPAN TO SHOP SHOP SHOP TELL I DROP!! BUT I DID GET 2 PAIRS OF SHOES!! HEHE THEY WHERE SOO CHEAP AND SO SEXY! GREAT PURCHASE! THE MALL WAS REALLY FANCY ALSO WITH WEIRD SHAPPED BALLS ON THE ROOF AND EVEN A WADING POOL ON THE ROOF! WE ALSO GOT A FOOD COURT MEAL THERE THE RICE WAS 80CENTS I THOUGHT I WOULD GET SOME RICE BUT THE LADY WOULDNT LET ME JUST PURCHASE THE RICE I WAS NOT IMPRESSED, SO I GOT SOME DRAGON FRUIT FOR A $1 SO GOOD! I ALSO HAD RICE , BEAN SPROUTS, AND SWEET AND SOUR PORK FOR $3 SO THAT WAS A GOOD DEAL ALSO, AND THE CANADIAN DOLLAR IS ALOT BETTER THEN THE SINGAPORE SO IN CANADIAN IT WAS PROBABLY LIKE $2
