Explore our sunny island

Are you spending your holiday in Singapore?

Well, it is not going to as devastating as what you have in mind (though I cannot agree on that), instead of sulking, why not explore this sunny (rainy) island.

Animal lovers, culturist, explorers and islanders; we have got it all for each and every one of you. Shall we explore the Zoo, The National Museum of Singapore, Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve and Sentosa. And if it is a holiday, take the public transport like how you would overseas (if you have not in a long time); take your time to explore the beauty of this island.
First and foremost, take your camera along and snap as many pictures as possible. Grab a good map from the tourism centre for navigation (tourist, remember?).
