TWG at Marina Bay Sands
Service still kinda sucks, but I can’t resist the pretty crockery and fragrant teas. The scones are some of the best I’ve had especially with the clotted cream and refreshing tea jam. The sandwiches are forgettable and pathetic for the … Continue reading

SkyPark: To the Top of Marina Bay Sands Again

Moomin at ION
It used to be pretty difficult to find Moomin toys. But last week I spotted this at a store on the 4th level of ION selling cards and gifts. I find these characters created in Finland in the 1945 so … Continue reading

Christmas Decorations at Paragon
Merry Christmas. It’s past midnight and Christmas already. Just wanted to share photos I took at Paragon. Haven’t been there in a while and thought of checking it out. Not much of a change.
Disney Christmas at Changi Airport
I think the airport is going to be extra crowded with kids just going there to play. There’s a humongous bouncy castle plus disney characters like Mickey and Minnie. Saw this at Terminal 2.

Marina Bay Sands: Skating Rink Decorated for Christmas
The best view of the skating rink would be from the top. The artificial ice has been covered so you can walk on the skating rink and many people were taking photos. There was live music too.

Christmas at Bedok Mall
I found the huge art installation out front eye catching but very weird looking. Just like at Changi Airport, the mall has a bouncy castle for Christmas.
