Today we had agreed to wake at our leisure as we were planning to be out until the evening. We went to my parents' room when we were ready and sat on their balcony while planning the day.
We started off with breakfast at the food court across the road from the hotel. Mum and Dad were skeptical about the breakfast choices, but in the end Mum was happy with some plainish roast chicken with rice and a small juice. We all ended up with chicken and rice, and the rest of us got lime juices. We got a table full of delicious and healthy food for under $10!
After breakfast we caught the train to Marina Bay. Oops! That should have been Bayfront! Never mind, it was a nice day for a short walk around the Marina Bay Sands.
We finally found our way to Gardens by the Bay. We were aiming for the Supertree Grove to start with, and had to cross a few bridges along the way.
The Supertree Grove was easy to find. The path to get to it was not! However, we did eventually find a way in.
Everyone decided that they wanted to do the Skywalk, so we bought our tickets and climbed up. I was surprised that Dad was keen, as he isn't so fond of heights. It was actually Mum who I caught struggling at times!
I tried to get some different photos to last time, but I think I just ended up with the same again Only this time the was more blue sky.
The Supertrees themselves are always fascinating, the way they are put together.
When we were all done on the Skywalk, we decided it would be a good time to break for some refreshments. DH and I led the way to the cafe we went to last time that had the best cheesecake ever. It did not disappoint.
We discussed the next plan of attack over our ridiculously creamy and tasty cheesecakes
