Singapore 19 January 2011










It is hot but prepared for this sort of weather. Check out time at the Roxy is 12 noon so we have a wee wander around. It is a shame that it is more in the Suburbs, but we had a brief pleasant stay. The Taxis are very reasonable here and a great way to get from A to B especially with our luggage. Our Hotel “The Fairmont” is well situated in Bras Basah Road across the road from Raffles Hotel. As expected our room was not ready as we had arrived early. While our room was being prepared we spent a couple of hours lounging in and around the pool. Life could be a lot worse.
On collecting our key we discover that the hotel has given us an awesome upgrade to Executive Club Level, situated on the top of the Hotel. It is a hotel within a hotel. Our room is wonderful as the photos show with not just all the extras but a coffee machine. We also have unlimited internet access plus the exclusive use of the club lounge which like a business class lounge everything is laid on including dinner which is a tremendous saving as eating out in Singapore is expensive. We both feel very blessed.
Had a wonderful evening. We caught up with Mark and Lisa from Atlanta who we met on the ship. We spent an evening together and went to the Night Safari which on many recommendations was fantastic. It lived up to our expectations, so enjoy the photo selection.
A late night for us. Our bed is the same comfort level of what we experienced in the Royal Suite on the Splendida and fits to our bodies. Extremely comfortable. Slept like logs.
