Wonderful night last night with family , or what I remember of it …..🕺🏻Some shenanigans ensued back in the party room.


Time to be a tourist again today with a relaxed approach as have seen so much already. I can see breakfast starts getting a bit later each day and no gym today! Plenty of walking though will help. The breakfast buffet truly is amazeballs.


Lucky with weather so far really wrt storms and rainfall. In fact sounds like Maryhole is copping it for a change . Never get tired of this vista

After breakfast time then for gang to head over the Gardens by the Bay in hot and sweltering conditions. You know, Saturday😏
It’s a fair trek but finally snuck into Marina Sands looking for AC . Truly an architectural wonder

As body temp returned to 38 degrees we headed back out. You have heard of Gorillas in the Mist?
We headed down then and into expanse of the Gardens. If we can work it out may come back later in day for a light show up close but it is a long walk




We then decided to split up and go separate ways as we were keen to see Cloud Forest and Flower Dome in opposite direction. Both very impressive and quite crowded











It was still hot and steamy and a cool pool beckoned so we headed to MRT for home base . Really is a great system . Up to the pool then where JL already were . We swam around and then ordered some lunch as you do. A few spots of rain was enough to raise humidity another 10% . I’ll drink to that


A relaxing afternoon then as wait arrival of 4th couple to conclude the surprise. We have been using Signal Group chat so of course Pete Hegseth may turn up ! At least he drinks I hear
We all met up at Portmans Bar onsite which site which was convenient but not again. Woeful service and pricey . We had a round of drinks but then it was my turn to suggest a place for drinks and maybe dinner. I suggested the Excise Man Wine and Whiskey bar about a 10 min walk. Let’s just say I am now officially a legend. Stunning place with old world elegance and superb service







A truly wonderful night with a couple of extra highlights. An Aussie winemaker from Langmeil in Barossa was doing a tasting and came out for a chat. After dinner and drinks we were given a tour of the tasting rooms and the range of wines on show. I tell ya if Freddo wasn’t 70 he would have been barring up 🤓
We then went for a short walk along esplanade as a beautiful night and a slightly different aspect for us .



Short walk home then and time for rest as another big day tomorrow
