Wow, I cannot believe that I have not been back to Singapore for over 9 months. Finally made it today. We are staying at the Pan Pacific. Got upgraded to a private balcony and these are the views we are seeing now. By far the best from any hotel we have stayed so far. We are overlooking back to downtown area where the famous lion head spilling water and the Fullerton Hotel. The flywheel is from another angle from the balcony. Not that interesting. I'll post a day time picture tomorrow.
Today we walked for about 15 minutes from our hotel to city hall - all underground! Too hot outside! We would have cooked. 32C with very high humidity. I reflected that in North America we walked indoor due to the cold and snow; here, due to the heat and must have air con full blast.
One thing that bugged me. Our MRT cards expired. Need a new one. Fine. But the SIN gov't does not recycle the old cards. We asked the ticket office to recycle, the agent gave them back to us and said "throw them to the garbage bin". That's just sick! RFID cards. Totally valid. Why replace? There does not seem to have a business reason at all.
