We have docked at the brand new terminal at Marina Bay and have to get a shuttle into town. As we plan to spend a few days in Singapore next year, we just decided to hit the shops, with a list a mile long!!!
We must have walked up and down Orchard Road ten times and into just about every shop – and it was getting very frustrating as we couldn't find anything we wanted…… until late in the afternoon and Colin scored a pair of trousers and me a pair of casual shoes - but it was fun looking!!!
Lo and behold just as we were about to board the shuttle bus back to the ship, Colin couldn't find his phone!!!! Criminal penalties are very strick, so we were hopeful that it wasn't stolen…. Back into the mall and information desk, to ring a couple of the shops, without success. After going through Customs we thought we should report the loss, for insurance purposes, so more time and paperwork!!! Eventually we got back to the cabin and there was an email telling us that Colin had left his phone in their shop – yeah!!! We emailed them back suggesting we pay for them to post it back to Sydney so are hoping we can organize that. At least we have one less thing to worry about losing now!!!
A happy sailaway, dinner and totally exhausted, hit the sack……
