After a reasonable nights sleep we decided to go get some breakfast and see a few sites. Breakfast was a buffet and simply fantastic.
After breakfast we decided to take the hop on hop off bus to the river and do a river tour. After waiting for 45 minutes in the stiffling heat (31C, 90%H) the bus arrived. We got on and it went 500m around the road, turned a corner and let us off!
The river tour was brief, but interesting. Some of the Architecture in Singapore is amazing. We had lunch at an "Amercian Diner" and then went for a tour to Sentosa Island.
Sentosa Island is stunning. It has amzaing views and (artificial) sandy beaches. It's an island by name only as we went there by bus! The tour guide Kamal was great and had us all in stitches. We went to Underwater world, which is very similar to Kelly Tarltons in Auckland, and the Singapore Museum.
The Museum was fairly boring and Madison was mobbed by Japanese tourists in the gift shop for about 15 minutes. One old lady took her off us for a cuddle at one point, which was a little strange!
We got a family photo with a Python outside the Museum and had a "New Zealand Natural" ice-cream. Hokey pokey of course!
The tour ended with a cable car trip back to the mainland, which was good. It gave an amazing view of the port and just how busy the bay's and sea around the port of Singapore is.
Day two finished with dinner in the hotel and early night.
