From GOT Till SIN

First of all, I would like to apologize for not visiting your blogs for the past few days. It’s because me and hubby have been on a long trip from Gothenburg, Sweden to Singapore. The countdown I was referring to on my previous post ended on Sunday and started a new event to share about. This is actually my first time to blog about a trip to my hometown, Davao. I was there two years ago but it was just the same time I discovered Wordpress so I wasn’t active in the blogsphere then.

So here I am enjoying my summer trip to Singapore. Hubby and I normally booked a flight from Gothenburg to Singapore and from there booked another flight to Davao. Singapore has been our landmark before proceeding to our final destination. It is because of the direct flight from Singapore to Davao. And hubby worked here in Singapore a long time ago so he’s feeling comfortable here and he knows where to find almost anything. And I, too,liked the city the first I was here five years ago.

Anyhow, the flight this time was almost the same as before. From Gothenburg to Amsterdam took 1 hour and 25 minutes. Then we waited for more than two hours for our flight from Amsterdam to Singapore. That was a 12 hour-flight from 9:30pm and that gave me a little sleep on the plane, thanks to late snacks and late dinner.

We’re staying at St. Regis Hotel for 2 nights. We already did a little shopping today and geez, how time flies! We were’nt able to go to Sentosa Island after shopping. There are a lot of places which I would love to visit again here but 2 days are not enough. I have taken some pictures but I’m running out of time to resize them. Maybe when I have time in Davao, I’ll post some pictures and visit your blogs, too. Tomorrow, we’ll fly to Davao. I can’t wait to see my family again. :-)
