Singapore Trip Part 1

15.06.2012, Friday 7.25am - Flight AK5270 take off from LCCT. Half an hour later, we reached Senai International Airport, Johor.

Took cab to J.A Residence Hotel where we stayed! Taxi cost arouond Rm50. Checked in and SLEEP! **so lack of sleep**

11am, we took a cab and off to Larkin bus station. Larkin bus station ni macam puduraya so banyak bus ada. Bus nak ke Singapore ade banyak tapi disebabkan hari pertama, tak sempat nak explore. We took bus no 170 cost RM2.20 per head. (Singapore to JB = SGD2.20)

*Tips*
- J.A Residence Hotel is near to City Square, Police Station and JB Central. Sepatutnya, take a cab and straight to JB Central. (Cheaper and nearer)
- OR you can walk to JB Central tapi penat la.
- Take CAUSEWAY LINK bus to Singapore. Cost = RM1.40 per head. From Singapore to JB also same except they use SGD (Singapore Dollar)

map to J.A. RESIDENCE HOTEL






Surround JA Residence Hotel:-

Hungry? Bored? At night, opposite hotel ada bazaar or something like uptown. I think every night memang ada. So u can just walk around and check out not only food but also clothes and stuff.
Nearest mall to the hotel is JB City Square. Just walk straight up around 5 mins u reach there.

Okay, now i will tell u how is the process of imigresen/kastam if u go by bus:-

the bus will stop at JB imigresen/kastam so bila turun u have to bring your belongings along. Prepare your passport with you then done straight go to the bus stop and take the same bus no that you ride. No need to pay just show the same ticket that you bought earlier. U will see that everyone is running and rushing. Because the bus does not wait for everybody. Either u walk fast or wait for the next bus.
Second stop is the Singapore imigresen/kastam. Same thing as the first one but here you need to fill in a form. I forget to take the picture of the form but once u enter the building you can see on your right side corner everybody is writing something on the counter.
**(tips: take a few with you if the next day you are going to singapore again).**
Done, take the same bus again until you reach the station or place that you are going.

For me, I stop at Kranji MRT station. From there, we went to dhobby ghaut and meet my friend there. We meet for the first time anyway. Thank god I didn't feel awkward. There we visit Plaza Singapura coz my sis nak redeem ticket shinhwa. p/s: shopping in this mall not bad either.
I bought a handbag red color with white polkadots. It cost around sgd18. If at pyramid arouond RM40 ro RM50. The stuff pun lagi best..hahahaha

Next stop mrt Farrer park, nak pergi Mustafa Centre & Seragoon Plaza.
But before that we ate lunch. We ate Indian Food! Sedap gak ar.. memang kenyang cause after that we all tak makan anything sepanjang da whole day kt singapore.








Mustafa Centre and Seragoon Plaza it is a SHOPPING PARADISE. All those junk foods MURAH!! I usually by those sour stick or scribble and it cost around rm6 but kat singapore i bought it for sgd1.20. My sis plak giler baking so when we saw all those almonds and pistachio sgd7 for the big bag dia jadi giler. We jadi macam orang yang tak pernah tengok barang.

Singapore flyer 출발~~  Tapi I tak ride it. 40 mins to complete one whole round! 됐어. Lepak jap minum dessert.. AIS KEPAL, BIRD NEST & LAI CHEE KANG!. Environment die seperti zaman zaman dahulu.. syok gak.. Then straight to Marina Bay Sand located a few meters away. You can just walk. Mall sungguh cantik and luas. Architecture mmg cantik! tempat nie ala ala Pavillion & KLCC. I love the tea party section yg located in the middle of the mall. Bila lalu jek the smell of the tea memang sedap.. ^_^ We also bought MACAROONS with few tea flavored nice gak!









Lastly, we went to bugis street but not even halfway we were tired and out of energy. decided to go back JB. I thinnk we walked to fast. It's supposed to be leisure. hahaha.. plus, we didn't have enough sleep the day before.
