Arrived in Singapore on Monday night, Valentine's Day ! I had all my paperwork so immigration was easy. Had a PCR test and then took a taxi to the hotel - Capri by Fraser, Changi City. Checked in within one hour of landing!
I had to stay in the hotel until I received my test results, which came overnight. So I was able to leave the hotel the next day. I went shopping at the adjoining mall and went for a walk. Area is very industrial as it's near the airport, so there wasn't much to see.
On the Wednesday, I checked out, and moved to my colleague's apartment at 8 Mount Sophia. He is in HK and offered me his place. It's a nice area adjoining a mall which adjoins Dhoby Ghaut MRT station which is only two stops to Raffles Place where my office is, or two stops on another line to Chinatown, where the good bars and food are.
It's a lovely complex and pretty large. I was in Tower 10. I did laps most days in the pool...
Wednesday night I went for a walk down Orchard Road. Was going to have a drink at Emerald Hill but couldn't fine a seat outside.
On Thursday, I worked from a cafe in the city and then headed to the office. That night I had some Cantonese food and did some calls.
Friday I headed back to the city and worked at Dimbulah which is across the road from my office.
Then I headed to the office.
On Saturday I hired a bike and rode to East Coast Park. Overcast so it wasn't too hot and it was a really nice ride.
Looking back to the city from Gardens by the Bay...
You can tell Singapore is a big port due to all the container ships...
Sunday I went to Sentosa as I wanted to go the the Tanjong Beach Club. However, it was fully booked so I went to another one, five minutes down the road.
This is Sentosa from Harbourfront. I then walked over the pedestrian bridge...
