Day 1 in Singapore: Orchard Road!

It was Singapore this year for the O family's annual summer getaway. As last year, we were 18 all in all, 10 adults and 8 kids.

Upon arrival at the Changi Airport, we took pictures right away!







For this trip, we decided to hire a bus service to shuttle us throughout our visit. This is the big bus which picked us up from the airport and brought us to our hotel.






Right after lunch at our hotel (home-cooked food which we brought all the way from Manila), E and I brought the kids to Orchard Road, it was a really long walk from the hotel but we enjoyed it:






Me and the kids with their first purchases:






Not used to all the walking, the kids got so tired and hungry, as in masungit na sila! From the end of Orchard Road to Lucky Plaza very near Scotts Road, it was really a long walk, although there were all these malls that we went in and out of. Can't believe I also survived that! Their Tito E had this bright idea to bring them to McDonald's. Look at their wide smiles! Ok na sila ulit. Must tries are the Crispy Spicy Chicken Sandwich ,the Spicy wings, and the best of all, Seaweed fries. Seaweed frieds are your McDo fries with seaweed powder which you shake and mix together in a paper bag.










Finally at the corner of Scotts Road:



Ion, one of Orchard's newest malls.



Part of the tour was to ride Singapore's MRT, which we rode going back to the hotel. Pero sa totoo lang, ayaw na nilang maglakad!







Although I've been to Orchard so many times, it was so nice to see it again with the kids! E and I had so much fun with them.
