The Nex

Searching for an apartment was fun.  I loved all of the places that we went to (4 total) and I could see us happy in any of them.  One was a favorite though, and we are in the process of making an offer.  It's a bit complicated because of bank accounts and timing, but we're working it out.  I'll tell you more about the apartment if our offer is accepted.

After visiting the apartments, we stopped at The Nex for lunch.  The Nex will be my main source for shopping and entertainment once we move to the new hood.  It's more than a mall.  It also has grocery stores, the library, a movie theater, tons of restaurants and of course shopping.  It's huge!  I got a couple of pictures...

After lunch, we were returned back to our hotel.  It was about 2:45 PM, and on our way up to our floor, I remembered that there was a scheduled fire drill at 3:00!!!  Oh NO!  The elevators would be shut down and we would be required to exit the building via stairs...  3 kids, 22nd floor... NO THANKS!  So, we turned right around and went back out.  

We've been wanting to try the MRT (subway/train system) and just hadn't yet.  So, we headed over to the Nicolls station on the circle line.  We got passes and took the MRT to a station where we could switch to the green line and then go to Bugis Station.  It was fun!  Easy!  The kids did great with it.  We picked up some more groceries at Bugis and then walked "home".

We had a light dinner and early bath.  The kids watched a movie and then bed.  I read a little in my book and tried to sleep.  I'm pretty excited about the apartment that we are trying to rent.  I really hope it works out.

Dragon Fruit not only comes in the black/white variety, but also black/pink!

I also took these pics of the night sky...

Tomorrow...  I think we'll ride the Singapore Flyer!
