I am surprise it is full, consider it to be a weekdays, the duckie on board are mostly tourist, but hehe, they don't know we are local duck, so we pretend pretend a bit.
Just for info, they give local's a 40% discount on weekdays, this is the first time I enjoy special rate as a Singaporean, way to go! but it would be great if we also get discount at the zoo, science centre, bird park etc etc.

The young and charming tour guide, all duckie are enchanted by his powderful Singlish, I mean English, really!
He is also quite well verse in some Singapore history and culture, better than I'm when at his age.

Red leaves cover the ground, and you thought you only get to see this in europe, it sure bring back lots of oversea's memories.

Splash.. but no splash, what a disappointment, who told us we will get wet? But according to the guide, we should, so maybe next time.
As usual, the sea is calm, hardly a wave, in my opinion of course.
At a distance we see Sheares, not almost as glory as he was once build, but nevertheless still stand as a manificient sturture in Singapore.

Boy! she never age a single day, unlike me. We also heard that the papa lion is at sentosa, got to take a look next time.
all and all it is bout an hour trip, fast and furious, no time to ponder too much, but we do get some facts about Singapore:
- our population is actually 4.2 millions with 1 million expat, got it?
- so it is about approx 1640 humans per square km.
- the certificate to own a car is the most expensive in the whole world, more expensive to own a spouse.
- Mandrian Marina is suppose to look like an elephant.
- our 1 dollar coin is make to look like a '八卦' , advise given to our MM by a renoun monk to give each S'porean one. But this is just a rumours.
- The new supreme court is bigger than St. Andrew cathedral.
- The world record for climbing up the 72 storey Raffles tower is 6 minutes, bit that!
Jaa mata!!
