Motykas in Asia 2015 Part 5 - Singapore

Do you know what awesome friends are?

Awesome friends are the ones that visit you halfway around the earth and when you say hey, you wanna go to Singapore? They say YES let's do it! So this is the story of our trip to Singapore for 2 days, 1 night.

You wouldn't believe it, we missed our flight!!! That's right. Silly me had too many itineraries in my email and I looked at the wrong flight. We ended up having to buy more tickets but luckily it was not Canadian airline price! After all that was settled we camped at Starbucks waiting for our new flight.

We flew with Air Asia and you always need to take the bus to get to the plane here in T3 Soekarno Hatta airport.

An hour and a half later, we arrived at Changi Airport Singapore, dubbed one of the best airports in the world.


In the monorail

We had planned to take the hotel shuttle bus from the airport but we were told it was delayed, so we decided to take the MRT instead. The Capri Hotel we were staying at was only 1 stop away from the airport. As soon as you arrive in Singapore you can feel the difference in the atmosphere.

Inside the MRT

MM saw this golden tree at the mall by the hotel and she wanted a picture :)

After we checked in, we walked over about 5 minutes away for Song Fa Bakuteh. Only MM and I ate there while the boys had sandwiches at a cafe next door.

Not wanting to lose any more time, as soon as we finished lunch we headed out to Gardens by The Bay. A must see if you are in Singapore and haven't been there.

After this picture here they named me Oko Yono...

Then we took the path to the Marina Bay Sands Mall...

After we walked around we proceeded to Clarke Quay for dinner...

And that was the end of our first day in Singapore... On the following day we did not have much time before we had to fly back to Jakarta and the only pictures I have are from the Butterfly Garden at the airport...

From here, we boarded the plane and went back to Jakarta...
Stay tuned for Part 6!

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan. I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm

Labuan Bajo 2023 Part 3 - 3 Days 2 Nights Diving Trip With Chakana Liveaboard

Photo credit: Lukas Rissing @thestudypacker A live-aboard experience is one of the highlights of Labuan Bajo. It has been on my bucket list for a while but every time I tried to go, something just didn't work out.... until now! The opportunity arose to join an impressive-looking boat this year and the dates matched Miss Kiki's holiday perfectly, how could I not take this rare chance! With less than a month to prepare, we booked plane tickets, accommodations, and whatever equipment we thought we might need. So off we flew to Labuan Bajo with little preparation and a lot of faith. ;) You can read the first and second parts of the trip in my previous posts. After we checked out of our hotel on the third day, we went to the pier and hopped on to a dinghy that took us to Chakana Liveaboard, a 47-meter-long phinisi-style yacht that was going to be our accommodation for the next two nights. My heart raced as we approached the pretty boat and spotted a group of staff excitedly wavi

Labuan Bajo 2023 Part 2 - Leisure Day Trip

I booked a leisure day trip for our second day in Labuan Bajo via Traveloka . When I say leisure, I meant a non-diving trip. We have a live onboard trip booked for the 3rd to the 5th day but that one is a diving trip covering different places and adventures so we tried to cram the other must-visits of Komodo National Park in one day. For breakfast that morning, we had breakfast boxes that the resort had prepared for us by order. The tour was operated by East Cruise Komodo and it was an open trip consisting of thirty-something people. East Cruise Komodo picked us up at Sudamala Resort where we stayed at 5:30 am and brought us to the harbour. The re-registration process at the harbour took about half an hour and after we were assigned a boat, we boarded. On the boat, our tour leader collected what was supposed to be the entrance fee for the National Komodo Park. It was IDR 150k per person for locals and IDR 300k per person for foreigners. We never saw the tickets but later on, we foun
