| Taken while riding the Singapore Flyer |
My trip started from NAIA 3 terminal with a Cebu Pacific Flight to Changi International Airport that lasted approximately 4 hours and 30 minutes including the delays due to air traffic.
The country of Singapore is located near the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula The country may be small in size and lacks natural resources with only a land area of 710 square kilometers and a population of 5 million people but it is highly urbanized and boost of tourist attractions[1].

| Singapore Flyer |
My first stop was the Singapore Flyer. The Singapore Flyer is a
giant Ferris wheel the ride is approximately 35 minutes long (one revolution). From
the top you could see the Singapore skyline and some of the Indonesian islands.
Inside the capsule you will not feel any motion sickness. Even those that are terrified
of heights, you will not be scared.

| Merlion Statue |
The second stop was the Merlion statue. It is half lion and half fish. It is located at Merlion Park near the tip of the One Fullerton Hotel. At the back of the original Merlion, you will see it cub or as we called it during our trip the Baby Merlion. The visit to Singapore is not complete without seeing the Merlion.
After visiting the Merlion Park, it was back to 30 Raffles Avenue or the Food Court of the Singapore Flyer to use the $10 coupon that we had for supper. Singapore food widely varies from Indian, Chinese and Malay influenced food to western.

| Singapore River Cruise |
After eating we went to for the Singapore River Cruise depending on your choice it can be from 40 to 60 minutes. Personally go for the cruise during the night. Seeing the nightlights, the lower temperature will help a lot to enjoy your trip. Oh, I also forgot to mention that the sunset is around 7:00pm. Strange for those like me from the Philippines who are used to having the sun set by 6:00pm. After the river cruise, it was time to check in to our hotel and have a good nights rest!
