Angeline,
Five stars experience … our room directly faces the floating platform where the fireworks are. Initially, we only expect fireworks view but we didn’t expect it to be so near. Cos, when we stands at our balcony, the fireworks display is so huge and so loud and so near. Kell was scared cos of the loud noise and she sat on her bed with her Elmo and watched the display in the room with her dad while I enjoyed the whole display at the balcony.
We didn’t expect to catch all the bay activities like the speedboats performances, the two planes ‘kissing’ right in front of us and drew that heart shape, then the big helicopters carrying the Singapore flag flew past our heads, the colored lanterns passed by us. Services were excellent too… they prepared a tots size bed for Kelly, showered her like a royalty with crayons and toys and sweets. Best part of all, our neighbors are policemen… think they are protecting the bay area.
Hubby wanted to go back for grand prix. I told him to give me the money instead. Ritz would be nice cos you will catch the performance on the floating platform but will be too far away from the bay to catch the activities. We already told the hotel that we are going back next year and we want the same room! Fullerton is good… cos it is near to Boat Quay and Merlion Park. We woke up at 7am on Sunday, had breakfast and have a good walk from Fullerton to Clarke Quay… the little one spent two hours drawing and painting at the Singapore River and then another hour at Merlion Park. Solid!
