Singapore Part Two


The first night in Singapore we went to a place that Justin had researched on the internet - Morton's Steakhouse.  We met up with some friends from Carnarvon who had been in Vietnam with us as well but had come to Singapore a few days before us.  It was a great (although not cheap!!) dinner, beautiful prime rib, cocktails, wine and for desert there was REAL New York Cheese cake - flown in from New York! It was great! 



 This place is actually a hotel you can stay in... there is a bar up on top and there is a great view over Singapore at night, photos from that still to come.....


 

 A giant ferris wheel is in the centre of town.  It takes about 40 minutes to do a complete rotation and gives a great view of Singapore.  There were so many boats in the harbour, it was a huge port!
Another Hard Rock Cafe moment! We were celebrating here and so in addition to the Hurricanes and Margaritas we thought we better have some B52 shots. Fun! 

And the best and cheapest place to get dinner in the whole of Singapore? Chinatown hawker street food; huge plates of Char Kway Teow, freshly made spring rolls, steamy BBQ pork buns and big icy glasses of Tiger beer. Ahhhh what a great way to end our first day being engaged!
