Tourists in Singapore


We were tourists for a day, visiting the famous hotspot, Gardens by the Bay, with our aunt J and uncle B. I was apprehensive about the crowd, seeing that it was a public holiday, but it actually turned out to be a great day. I'm sure it was also because we had good company.

We enjoyed the domes greatly because of the air-conditioned comfort. The hubby is a lover of flowers and plants, so the different species and where they are from was interesting for him. Chubbs was on the lookout for purple (his favourite colour) flowers, and was most thrilled to have gotten to sit on a tiger (his favourite animal) sculpture.

I'm looking forward to making more visits to study the plants more closely. I was particularly fascinated by the Baobabs, and loved the funky names the Aussie plants had. We'll be back soon, I'll be sure to pack a picnic.
