Now that we cant travel overseas, we had to find some activities to do instead of just staying at home, it was so boring. So we decided to be local tourists in our own home country. 

 Marina Bay Sands is having a promotion called 3 in 1 bundle for the first 300 visitors per day at a promotion price of only S$10 to visit three attractions in their premises but need to be a member to be able to enjoy these promotion price. It was easy, just  sign up for the free membership online via their website. Promotion ends 15 November 2020.

Life is almost back to normal but we are still taking lots of cautions due to the Covid Pandemic

It was a weekday, I had to run some errands at Marina Bay Sands. Normally I would not travel far from my home but need to go to collect something. It was a very different Marina Bay Sands from the usual sight. Not many people in here due to the covid travel ban in many countries, otherwise it would be full of tourists. 

It was great to be able to take some photos without people blocking my view but I need to be cautious too. I am wearing a mask. It was mandatory in Singapore to wear masks indoor or outdoor unless dining or doing exercises.


After finished my errands, did some walking around the mall and love the peaceful atmosphere.
Like this foral arrangement very much and in my favourite colour too.


Time to head back. I was the only one in the MRT train between Bayfront Station and Promenade Station but after that lots of people coming in. Life has almost back to normal in Singapore. It is still empty in the CBD but not the heartlands.


Full of shoppers and diners in shopping mall located in the heartlands. Weekend it would be very very crowded but social distance is still in place and masks is still mandatory. We are all very law abiding and everyone wear the masks. For those not wearing masks, there's a fine of S$300. And we cannot gather more than five people at the moment except when there's a wedding (100 people), religious events, cinema etc. More Covid 19 restrictions has been eased and we are looking foward to everything back to normal . There's very low number of cases in the community and sometimes zero. Wearing the masks certainly help stop the spreading of the virus and also need the community to co operate in wearing the masks and social distancing. 


I am so used to wearing the mask now and never leave home without one. Also using the hand sanitizer more often especially after payment for my purchases, using the public transport, etc

People queuing to dine in newly open restaurants in the heartland shopping malls. Staffs around to make sure people are social distancing when queueing otherwise the restaurants will also face a fine.

Revolution Travel Fair 2015 at Marina Bay Sands

The Revolution Travel Fair 2015 held at Marina Bay Sands Singapore, is organized by 24 travel agencies, including the travel industry’s Big Four – Chan Brothers Travel, CTC Travel, SA Tours, and Dynasty Travel. This brand new travel fair is to rival the well known NATAS Travel Fair, and is to be held on 3 – 5 April 2015 (postponed from the initial plan of 27 – 29 March 2015).

This travel fair looks better than the NATAS Fair that I posted in earlier post.

Best of all both fairs are free admission. NATAS used to charge admission fees at few dollars per person. Come on, we ain't going alone, it can be costly if we attend the fair in a family of four or more.

I have been attending such travel fair since decades ago when the fair started and it used to be free admission. The reason for such fair is for the convenience of both travel agents and consumers, so we can get information and compare prices under one roof, and decided which travel agents gives the best price for the tours we wanted to go, and also to get information from different tourism boards all under one roof too.

The crowd definitely looks bigger. I managed to get the information that I needed.

Wow the Thailand booth looks beautiful with its decorations.

Mascot for Chan Brothers Travel

Saw this advertisement for Tokyo,the price looks very attractive.

No, I did not book this tour, but I am going Japan in a couple of months, is a DIY tour.

Skywatch Friday - Happy New Year 2015

My first post for 2015, wishing everyone a very Happy New Year. May there be peace on earth and no more disasters.

Many penned their wishes for the new year on the huge balloons and the huge balloons were floated in Marina.

This year being the 50th anniversary of Singapore, the red ballons were shaped in the number 50.

Skywatch Friday - Marina Bay

Took photos of these tall office tower buildings at the Marina Bay Financial Centre. My sister worked in one of the tall building so I got a chance to visit inside one of the building but only on the lobby area, could not go up to her office due to security reasons.

Love this stretch of the link between Marina Bay Financial Centre and Marina Bay Sands. A great place to take photo of the whole rows of financial buildings and the Singapore river.

Spotted among the tall building was Clifford Pier. Clifford Pier was built between 1927 and 1933, and was named after Sir Hugh Clifford, Governor of the Straits Settlements between 1927 and 1929.
