Dinner at Lau Pa Sat

It was really a tiring day for the four of us. Thanks for a short nap at the hotel, re-energized but still I feel sick. Have to get up and meet Mr. Valedictorian at the hotel lobby. Itinerary for tonight is dinner at Lau Pa Sat then city stroll (MBS, Helix Bridge, Merlion Park).

Mr. Valedictorian walked us from the hotel to the nearest MRT station. My God! It was a 30 minute walk, and imagine it doubled my sickness.

In Singapore, your feet and your knees are your best friend. It should be strong and sturdy or else you won't enjoy the places. LOL! It was a long walk again from the train station to Lau Pa Sat. Met Carol at the interchange. Chismax to the max! :)))))

We dined at Lau Pa Sat street hawkers. First food at Singapore. I really enjoyed it. Super yummy, happy tummy. I looooove the cereal prawns the most. Chili crab next. During weekdays, street hawkers in Lau Pa Sat are open from 3PM onwards. Just some trivia: Lau Pa Sat means "Old Market".The place is like our own "DAMPA" or "Banchetto" but it has more stalls to choose from. No live bands performing. Many Filipinos too. Safe place to eat, clean and fun, cool ambiance (tall buildings as back-draft). ^_^

Since I'm still feverish, the city stroll was re-scheduled. Have to have a good night sleep, big day tomorrow at USS.
