Our Trip to Resorts World Sentosa (Part 2 of 2)
The Casino here doesn’t look as intimidating as the one at Marina Bay Sands. It’s a lot more gaudy too. This place is not as posh, but hotels seem more family and budget friendly. Honestly, if I had to pick … Continue reading

I get a thrill to find Singapore making it to leading newspapers like the New York Times. The recent article touches on how there is the $100 Singapore dollar (US$70) entrance fee per day for Singaporeans. It reports that the … Continue reading
Boat Rides at Marina Bay Sands

I have to Pay S$100 to Enter the Casino
You, my overseas friends, can go in for free. The government needs to nanny its citizens lest we lose all our money. We are called a nanny state for a reason. I just noticed the big warning. My young friends … Continue reading
