Back to Changi Capri Fraser!
Hasn’t changed much really since our last visit during COVID in Sep 2021, save for the reception which has been temporarily moved to the rear-end of the lobby in view of some reno works (the games corner at the lobby is still available with some really good board/card games, along with the Spin & Play (Laundry/Games room on each floor).
We’ve been here a couple of times now (first was when it was still SHN during COVID!) and always seem to discover something new in this somewhat of a gem tucked away in an otherwise unexplored part of Singapore (note NeWater Visitor Centre which we wanted to visit but unfortunately did not get this time round – tours don’t run daily and should be booked out ahead).
We also discover another way (other than the basement via the carpark) to get into an otherwise nice and quiet adjacent mall.
Note we get a somewhat smaller room (looks to be the lead-in category vs. the previously upgraded room).
Not an issue since one of us kids fit snuggly into the ‘sofa-bed’ – given it was a 2-night affair, both Jie Jie and I had a go at that!
Being at the far east, we decide to check out Changi airport, a mere stop away from Expo/Changi City Point, but not before finishing up work – though the pool outside looks so inviting!
Managed to sneak in a note for Daddy – he’s such a sucker for our littl’ notes! 🙂
We get on the MRT and there was an incident where someone dropped his phone into the gap between the train and platform. Poor guy looked as though he was going to cry but Daddy does a good dead, goes up to him and punches the emergency button to report the issue. Way to go Dad-O!
We get to Changi Airport and find our way to Jewel.
My, look who’s here?
It’s a me-Mario! And Princess Peach!
Turns out it was the Mario’s Pipe Around the World exhibition at Jewel!
We head back to the expo to grab dinner thereafter headed back to the room!
Later in the night Daddy and Mummy wanted to grab us supper from Mackers but it appeared it closed at 10pm, as with all the shops/restaurants at the mall (would’ve thought Macs would at least be opened till late!), but oh well…
So again in a blitz the 2nights come to a really quick end (and nope Daddy didn’t get time to swim with us in the pool as he promised!) and we’re looking forward to our trip to Europe for Christmas 2023.
Stay tuned!
Flashback and kick-blast from the past!
