so my chinese new year eve was less sober than the previous post suggested, and much more exciting.
we woke up real early at 7am, and headed over to a friends house at sentosa cove. once we got there, we boarded the yacht and headed out to sea. as far as boats go, speedboats are still the best :D although the luxury of the yacht was a tad sinful.
for the day, we hung out on the yacht. not much to do in the middle of the sea, although i did try my best to prep for it the day before. too bad my ipod died on me and newsweek proved too dizzifying to read. fishing terribly failed on me as well, despite the wonderous tiger prawns we used to bait and the brand new fishing rods. we did get a ride on the small speedboat attached though, but the PCG was around so we couldnt really speed.
lunch on the yacht was zomgawesome. huge grilled prawns, steak and crayfish. the prawns were
to die for.
pictures!
in front of forementioned condo. i think my mom was very pretty :D
with my dad and my sea-sickness-preventing green apple.
it was windy!
good at posing, not so good at fishing.
speedboat!
the seas of singapore are extremely sad compared to those of wales. surrounded by huge tankers and petrol companies and chemical plants, quit a bit of imagination is required to pretend we're in an exotic holiday location. and the water was a bit gross so i gave up on the thought of swimming (my dad went in and got scrapped on some fish or another. cue first air box) but it was still, a pretty good trip.
dinner was at the yacht club, one15. but like i mentioned, it paled in comparison to lunch.
