1 DAY TRIP TO SINGAPORE DELIVER SOME SHIRT

Hi...here we are back again with new story!
Now this trip destination is Singapore.
A mission from God with a bunch of Tshirt to bring to a fellow named Jean Marc at Thomson road.
A promes has been made to meet up the guy at 10 am at Thomson Road condominium.

 
After buying 2 Ticket for me and my daughter Kak Ai, we sail by ferry From Batam Center ferry Terminal , toward to Harbour front Singapore  ferry terminal. Currently Ticket price is IDR 480.000 for man and IDR 380.000 for children. Above is one ferry just going back from Singapore we meet when departed.



 A huge  Cruise ship we met ,  almost reach the harbour front.



Too late, now 9 am Singapore time, and there is so many tourist already at the imigration standing in Line. We forget this is sunday, and we should take 1st ferry instead those 8 am ferry to get less people here.



After a blah blah blah question from Immigration Indian wacky women, we pass the office and straight toward to Jean Marc Apartment at Thomson Road by TAXI. It cost 10 SGD or IDR 90.000 to reach this place. No Choice since Jean wanna leave his apartment on 1 pm, we rushed to catch him by TAXI. Now we are waiting Jean Marc to go down for his level 24room  at Lobby.


Look satisfied with the Tshirt i have made for him. He is agree to take picture with us.
(...Didnt Jean Marc look like personel of SUM 41 or others punk EMO band member?)


Based on Jean direction, we have to walk toward to NOVENA MRT. around 200 m from his apartment.
Kak Ai is pictured as she stand front of the road board.



Raffles palace garden. You can reach everyplace by MRT  since it is very cheap.Only 1 - 2 SGD per trip by MRTrain.  From Novena MRT station, we go to Raffles Place MRT stsn for about 15 minutes and out from there to this nice garden.

 
even a bird can eat steady safe on this garden. In Indonesia maybe this bird alread sell to a market for a pocket money.

 

 Nice construction.


Zhang he (Ceng ho) boat statue? here in raffles palace.


as we walk from Raffles Garden to Merlion park, we found this place is already near to Marina Bay Sand.




finally, after walk 10 minutes, we reach the Iconic merlion statue on Merlion park near behind Fullerton hotels. Walk again??? man...
In Singapore, people is used to walk to go everywhere. Since Singapore has many MRT and BUS Station everywhere, then Singaporean only has to walk to complete their trip and  go to their destination. The town look so amazingly very very clean.Singaporean has use to face a tourist, so they are kind of warm people and kind to answer even your very stupid question about direction.



From Merlion park, you can see many iconic building such as , Marine baysand, Esplanade Theater, the giant Wheel etc.


skyscrapper everywhere on Singapore. How sad to think that Batam island actually can reach same level as Singapore. But currently as too many political and wrong bussiness issue in Batam and Jakarta, then batam cannot reach as stable growth as Singapore. I wish batam is out from Indonesia, and made his own country maybe it can reach as good as Singapore.



After and hour at Merlion park, we got back Raffles MRT and go to Bugis Junction MRT stsn.  From there we walk to Bugis street.
If Jakarta have Tanah abang, the Singapore has Bugis street. A place to buy cheap singapore souvenir and apparell. very crowded here.



From Bugis Junction MRT we go to Bayfront MRT station. After looking from Exit B then we walk  via this Tunnel toward to GARDEN by the bay. You can reach Garden By the Bay by walk around 10 minutes.
Sometime those MRT has kind of 3 level floor below surface underground. can you imagine : 3 or 4 level floor MRT station underground??



GARDEN BY THE BAY!..This is actually a garden in a center of downtown concept garden. With a huge construction of flower tower. and huge glass house conservatorium and many kind of plant and flower.
That is a pitty we arrive here too soon as the Flower Tower havent got trun ON the lamp.


if you visit a t night, this garden tower can be as beautifull as this. How perfect and beauty!


We lucky to get this vision from Garden BTB.  Singapore Giant Wheel.



and more lucky to know that, Marina Bay Sand is only 10 minutes walk from Garden BTB.





From Garden BTB, we walk into Marina Bay Sand (MBS) use a very fast bulding lift, we go up to level 57 to a SKY PARK on MBS. Only visitor who stay at the hotel can swim at this Famous Flying Pool. If you see kind of boat on the top of MBS bulding from far, is it actually this pool and a small garden on top of it.
and then rate per night to stay at this hotel is IDR 6 jt !!


say goodbye to this Iconic Building MBS.



Beautifull sunset at HB front Ferry Terminal and  it is 8.10 PM Spore time or 7.10 pm Batam Time, as we walk toward to Majestic ferry to bring us home to Batam center ferry terminal.
