Touring Singapore..


It all happened like a flash. Till twentieth of Jan, this year, I never knew that, not more than a week of time is required to plan for a foreign trip. My boss dint believe that i am going to SG, when i asked for leave, even after showing him the ticket. He thought I was going for a date or something, somewhere in Chennai.

Okay. Lemme explicate the trip.

Though the flight journey was ordinary, the girl who sat beside me was extra-ordinary. Thanks to Sadesh, for giving up that seat for me. My belief that Indian girls are the most beautiful in the world grew, even more stronger after seeing her. But it din't last long any further, when I saw the Chinese girls, who always carried coquettish, slandering smile on their glowing yellow faces! I felt the porcupine headed Chinese guys are too lucky!

Even in Singapore we stayed in India! Yup.. The Place we stayed was 'Little India'. The dorm in which we stayed was too cheap on a Singaporian's perspective and was too good on an Indian's perspective! At the beginning, we were gaped for most of the time, either by seeing girls in scanty dresses or the Skyscrapers. I could visualize how people in India would have treated ATM machines when they were first introduced, when i was standing in front of a drink-vending machine which was written fully in Chinese.

We traveled a lot in MRT(metro trains at SG). The Bird Park and Night Safari we went were good but not extra-ordinary except some special shows. Even Sentosa island too was not that great. But, roaming in the Singapore streets aimlessly, taking snaps of whatever we encounter on our way, felt really good. In fact, it was an awesome experience of getting in a train, getting down at random places, go and explore the malls and streets there and continue the same again. We took snaps with almost all popular brands of cars. To top all this we traveled in Mercedes Benz. Believe it or not, they run Benz as a taxi for minimum 3 SGD.(around 100 Indian Rupees)

We could find beer cheaper than water there. We had a very new experience of dealing everything in dollars for the whole trip.

Original Thai food was different, but we got Spicy Indian foods too. One must go to China Town, where we get a variety of Thai and sea foods in Food street. To be precise we can call China Town as Chinese Ranganathan Street, where people were busy in selling almost everything.

We were roaming, roaming and roaming, got tired, ran out of money in pockets and leave at office, got a feel that Indian girls were better than their Chinese counterparts before we boarded a flight back to India!

Precisely, I can tell that the tour was Amazing and Great Experience!
