Saturday 9 August, Singapore National Day

The beach on Sentosa Island

We were in time for the breakfast buffet at the Grand Park City Hall Hotel in Singapore. We hoped to meet up with Cathy Y but it didn't work out. We took the MRT and monorail to Sentosa Island, now a theme park. It was very hot there.

We got a bus to Siloso Beach and had a cold beer. Then we visited the Aquarium which had many interesting fish, including sharks, rays, tropical fish, sea dragons and jellyfish. We saw a dolphin and seal show, and went through a tunnel where we saw sharks being fed.

Dusk on Singapore National Day

We returned by the same route and rested at the hotel.

We went to enjoy the National Day and fireworks at the Fremantle restaurant by the river. Back at the hotel we had cocktails and listened to the singer.
