^Parang malalaki yang bibilhin mo esp. working desks. Mahirap siya dalhin mismo so forwarding gagamitin mo.

[ayi21]

^Mukhang ganun na nga. Ilan kayang box ang magagamit ko for those items. Haaay. Di ko alam if itutuloy ko pa bumili there or dito na lang talaga. Baka kasi di din ako makatipid in the end.

[toria]

^Hi sis, another problem is kung pano mo sya dadalhin sa Lucky Plaza since andun yung LBC/JollyB.
For sure mapapataxi ka din =). Sa site ng IKEA may dimensions ng items pag naka pack sila sa box, so magkaka idea ka more or less gaano sila kalaki.

[ayi21]

^thanks sis. i'll check that too.

Question, please!

I'm going to SG in a couple of weeks. The pasalubong that my friend requests that I bring him from SG is any local beer or liquor.

For example, when I went to Japan, what I bought for him was sake, which originates from Japan. So is there anything similar for SG?

Appreciate your help!

^ tiger beer

[engroselle]

^^ Singapore sling :-)

[Heatherette]

^Parang mahirap ata iuwi yan kasi it's a mixed cocktail and you can make it here as long as you have the liquors hehe

[hunny_ally]

There's a ready mix for Singapore sling. If you're MNL based, Tiger beer is readily available in most groceries.

[meimei]

Ay may Tiger pala dito sa Pinas... Ok so ano pa kaya pwede? Guy yung papasalubungan ko and hindi siya mahilig sa cocktails hehe, and di ko nga mauuwi yun (not sure what the ready mix is, pero di pa rin kasi di siya mahilig sa cocktails)...

OMGeeeee look at this!! Craft beer bottles!!!! Sana open pa yung Booze Pharma-C sa Tiong Bahru. Ang daming craft beer on bottle!!!!!

Anyone who has been to adventure cove? Is it worth it and how many hours would you typically spend there? Thank you! 😉

[ri-anne]

^been there. It's fun! It's worth it if mahilig kayo sa water parks. We were there the whole day.
Haba nga lang ng mga pila dun sa mga magagandang slides. But it's expected naman. Enjoy!

[pchym]

^thanks, sis ri anne! Here's my iti draft.  You're all welcome to comment and suggest po. Thanks in advance!

Aug. 28 (sun) 5:40pm eta changi airport t2
                       Check in at strand hotel (recommended by sis heatherette)
Dinner at Makansutra gluttonsbay then stroll na rin sa GBTB, helix bridge, merlion park, mbs, esplanade. Kaya po ba ito and what's the best order of these spots if unahin po namin yung makansutra? We also want to watch the lights and sound show.

Aug. 29 (mon): SG zoo until lunch siguro then malling in the afternoon (ion orchard, etc) OR Adventure cove sentosa. I'm torn between sg zoo and adventure cove kasi kulang ang time namin.

Aug. 30 (tues): USS maghapo na siguro dito then what? Hindi pa kami decided what to do after, if mag cable car, skyride/luge then ikot sa sentosa area

Aug. 31 (wed): Legoland; chinatown, bugis, or mustafa (alin po ba pinaka ok puntahan)

Sept. 1 (thurs): check out early sa hotel or punta muna sa chinatown to buy pasalubongs kung hindi kami umabot sa chinatown after legoland, then Changi city point before going to changi airport for our 6pm departure. Gusto din namin makapagstroll sa airport while waiting for our flight. Mga what time should we be there?

I am travelling with hubby and our 2 kids (8 & 7yrs old).  Also, which is better ez link card or the singapore tourist pass?  Salamat po ng marami sa mga sasagot! 😊

^@pchym

Aug 28 is okay. Sunday schedule of the MBS Light and Water show is 8pm and 9:30pm.
Are you taking taxi from the airport? If yes, then you'll be able to arrive at the hotel maybe around 6:30 or 7pm. From Brash Basah you may take the Circle Line MRT to Bayfront or Bus 106 and alight at MBS.

You might be able to catch the 8pm show. From MBS you may take this walking route
MBS > Helix Bridge > Esplanade > Merlion Park

Aug 29 - I suggest you pick one between Zoo and Adventure Cove. Hindi sila magkalapit sis.
If you choose Adventure Cove, better to be there as early as 10AM para makapagslides kayo ng hindi pa sobrang haba ng pila. Pwede naman until 3pm lang kayo dito.
My tip is to shower na around 3-3:30PM, pagdating kasi ng 4pm onwards ang haba na ng pila sa shower area. Kung hindi pa kayo pagod, you may go to Chinatown to buy pasalubong.

Aug 30 - is okay.

Aug 31 - Last time I went to Legoland, we spent the whole day. Baka pagod na kayo pag balik nyo ng SG lalo na may kids kayong kasama.

Does your kids really want to go to Legoland? Medyo pagod kasi yung magkasunod na Legoland and USS baka hindi nila masyadong ma enjoy. Otherwise, you may remove Adventure Cove/SG Zoo.
Magikot ikot na lang kayo around Orchard, Chinatown, Bugis.

[Heatherette]

Nagawa namin yung USS then the next day Legoland. After Legoland nag-Mustafa Centre kami pero syempre 3 adults kami so kaya naman namin yung 2 magkasunod na theme parks. Di ko lang alam sa kids kung kaya.

[pchym]

^sis toria, What if imove na lang namin yung USS ng Monday then SG Zoo nlng on Tuesday?  I'm thinking kasi baka mas madaming tao sa USS ng mondays. Thank you po.

[Heatherette]

^Usually konti tao ng weekdays sis

[tomatostellar]

Bukas na trip namin! Sana maganda weather

[pchym]

Sulit po ba pumunta sa johor premium outlet? Parang gusto ko sya puntahan after legoland or mag IMM na lang po kami? TIA

[toria]

@pchym Okay mag USS ng weekdays =).
As for Premium Outlet or IMM, ano ba plan mo bilhin? Check mo list ng shops para may idea ka.

@tomatostellar Fair weather these past few days.
