Singapore – Day 7

Thursday, 22-Oct-2015

Tags: Travel

The morning was spent at the beach area of Sentosa. I took the SMRT to Harborfront and the Sentosa Express monorail to the beach, and walked the beach, dipping my feet in the water, and heading out to the (artificial) most southern point of continental Asia.




Southernmost point, though constructed as so.


I headed back to meet up with Larry for a river cruise on the Singapore River.

First Generation, Fullerton Hotel (2000). Chong Fah Cheong.


Another shot of the Merlion


Yet another shot of the threesome: Flyer, ArtScience Museum, and the Sands.


Still on the boat, on the way back to Clarke Quay, the old and new Supreme Court buildings (domed building and spaceship).


One of the two side-by-side The Esplanade Theatres, nicknamed the “Durian” because they are shaped liked the spiky fruit.


Another interesting building on the way back, can’t quite remember what.


By the Clarke Quay is the G-MAX Reverse Bungy and GX-5 Extreme Swing. The G-MAX and the GX-5 were designed and created in New Zealand, the home of bungy! The G-MAX reaches 60 meters in the air, hitting speeds of up to 100kph and G force 5. The GX-5 falls from 50m, reaching over 120kph.


Then we lounged on the rooftop, packed, and left very early the next morning to the airport.
