Memories: 2nd day at Singapore
So.. the 2nd day of Singapore sucked.
We planned to go to the complex where hub's bro-in-law asked to see about his shoes but after talking to the taxi driver, we changed our mind and asked to go to Geylang Serai instead. It was quite a long drive but since we started early, when we got there, only about half of the shops are opened & the rest are still closed. Hubs was only interested in the classic malay cds and he spent a lot of time on one shop since it was the only one selling what he wanted. I spent most of the time walking around with a sleepy toddler in a sling after I didn't find what mum wanted in the cd shop.
Then we went to the building across it and hubs bought some food before we left to go back to the hotel. However on the way back, we decided to give the complex for the shoes another try but when we got there, it was the wrong place. More specifically, it was in the wrong country because the name that hub's brother-in-law gave us (Lot 10) is found in KL, not Singapore. At least that's what I thought because I've gone to that place before but I wasn't sure at the time because there was a possibility there is branch in Singapore. When I remember that taxi driver commented that it sounded like a popular complex in KL, it only cemented my suspicion. Just that instead of Lot 10 in KL, there is Junction 10 in Singapore. So yeah, we went to Junction 10 where taxis are rare. It took nearly an hour before I gave up and went around to see if I can find a way out of the complex because the surroundings were mostly apartments separated by highways. Thankfully there was a free shuttle and we got on that & I could only guess by the lrt crossing overhead where we should stop. It was embarrassing coz we nearly tumbled, standing up too early before the shuttle properly stopped because I thought the driver was stopping at a stand instead of a red light. Oh well, we made it safely out of the complex at least, and we went straight to the nearest station to head to Bugis Junction. It took probably 3 line changes to get there and we went back to the hotel from the station after buying more supplies. I had to rest after that because the trip was exhausting and unfulfilling. I didn't feel like going out after that so I brought Dibs to play at the pool & had to tire him out walking outside the hotel before he wanted to go to sleep. I forgot what I had for dinner... *sigh*
