Singapore

The second visit to Kuala Lumpur was only to catch the train from there to Singapore a daunting seven and a half hour trip. It turned out to be OK apart from the border crossing at Singapore where we had to leave the train with all our baggage and go through the checkpoint and re-board the train again.

There are quite a few craft beer pubs in Singapore and I got to try the beer in two of them, Brewerkz and Paulaner, both had excellent beers.

Singapore has not changed that much apart from Sentosa island where they are building lots of resorts.

In our opinion it has changed for the worse as the first time we visited, some twenty years ago, it was an original island without modern buildings and lots of open green areas, now it’s trying to compete with Disneyland with monorail attendants waving as you leave and arrive at stations.
