Tour around Singapore for NN Awards Day 2

Nuffnang Asia Pacific blogging awards

gave more than what is expected during the 1st day

with a good hotel for us..

lots of good food..

awesome performances..

and of course the awesomeness of being

in the midst of 400 other bloggers

you can refer to this post

well the excitement didn't stop there!

as Nuffnang planned a whole day trip

for the 2nd day we were in Singapore

The day started off at 8am

as we jumped into 4 separate buses

as there were so many of us

and couldn't crowd in 1 location all at once

hence..

we were divided into 4 groups

to tour all the same destinations at different destinations at a time

so as for my Group

which is Group B..

we headed off to the 1st place which is:

The Chinatown heritage Centre

it exhibits all the Chinese ways of living

in the earlier years of Singapore

such as:

(clockwise from top)

A Prostitutes room

A Kopitiam

A Chinese kitchen

Chinese local dishes

Chinese barang barang

Firecrackers

Gangster's table

Names

so as we finished the Chinese Heritage Centre

we started walking towards the URA Centre

but as we were walking

we had typical distractions

A temple

Bloggers looking in awe

and of course!

Bloggers being Bloggers

so finally:

we reached the URA Centre

The URA Centre shows the development of Singapore

in its buildings and architecture

somehow this looks...

simply AWESOME !!!

lolwth =.=

we headed over for lunch at the food court

and headed to the

MINT Museum of Toys

This is one of the places i love the most from the tour!

seriously this Museum is not the typical museum you see

as the collection is some things you wont see in other museums

as the toys are backdated till the 1900s

one toy could fetch up to $20,000

or even more for the bigger ones

the best part is..

This is only 1/10 of the actual toys collected by the owner

as its mostly kept in the warehouse

so if u do visit singapore

do visit this place

as the collections keep on changing every season

and you wont be bored of it!

we then headed to the opposite of MINT museum

which is:

Raffles Hotel

which is the historical hotel of singapore

and its really beautiful by the inside and outside

so as we were exploring the hotel

we started:

Modeling & Photoshooting

well most of em were the girls trying to take shots with beautiful scenaries

Showing off!

wthhh

we headed off to

The Singapore Royal Selangor Pewter Museum

as you realise

"Royal Selangor" is actually the Malaysian Trademark

but since Singapore was part of Malaysia last time

there is still Singapore "Royal Selangor"

in this part of the trip

we were divided into two groups

as..

we were able to create our own pewter bowl

with our own engravings inside

that is so cool!

you should try it if you hadn't!

we headed off to the Singapore Flyer

after the other group has done their bowls

as you know

the Singapore Flyer is now the world's largest observation wheel

we were able to go on a 30 minute ride on the flyer

and we had great views of:

Jackie's sexay pants! Wootz!

The Singapore flyer cabin can also be rented for a dining experience

*especially for the rich & romantic people*

our next stop was:

The Esplanade

it is a durian shaped building

used for performances and shows

its awesome architecture makes you go WOW

but in the end..

we just started taking random pics again...

we then headed off to

Bugis & Orchard road for shopping

Bugis Street

in the end

Bryan, Me, Jeremy, Kristine & Kim bought the same shirt

which spells "EMO"

hahaa stupid but yeah =)

the girls then continued their shopping for clothes

while the guys went shopping for cheap alcohol =)

we then headed back to the hotel after that

and we had our long chats

ghost stories and so on
