We woke up after an ok nights sleep it was a little strange to sleep in a room with so many other people. Breakfast was served until 10.30am so we got up had cereal and toast and went back to our bunk. One thing we wanted to do today was to go to Singapore zoo we'd read it can take all day to look around properly so we had showers and set off. We got the MRT as far as we could then was planning on getting public bus the rest of the way. But just as we went throug...

Got up really early this morning to be ready to get a taxi to the airport at around 6.30am. Found a taxi and did the hours drive to the airport. We checked in and were flying at 9.15am, we got a free meal on the plane which was a bonus. We got to Singapore and got the MRT from the airport close to Little India where we're staying. From the MRT the walk really wasn't very far to the hostel. We checked in and were shown to our room. This is the first dorm room we h...

We are both feeling much better after getting some good sleep, we got up and had breakfast. We started getting our bags together as we're leaving the island today.

At 10 ish we walked down to the ferry office and got our tickets sorted and dropped our bags...

We were now both feeling a little under the weather so we had a slow start to the day. We wandered down to the beach to find somewhere to chill on some comfy beanbags to read our books. We found somewhere which did just the trick, plus it had wifi. James received a message from his friend Ahmed who we are staying with when we get to Sydney Australia, there was a problem. He asked if we could change our dates we would be there, there was no way we could do that be...

We got up later today after sleeping much better than the night before. I've had a mouth ulcer for a few days and have now started with ear ache, guess it's my turn now after James is just starting to get better. We got our things together and headed off to the beach, we put our things down in a shady spot and went for a snorkel straight away. We spent quite a while looking around and spotting fish, we did see an enormous trigger fish and a mantis shrimp like we'...
