I was surprised and delighted to see many mural arts while explore Singapore River this Monday sunny afternoon. There are bright colourful painting that features Singapore history from Sang Nila Utama, Stamford Raffles, Chinese coolies and hardworking Samsui women who worked in the construction industry. Take a look at the street arts below!

If you want to have a great vantage view of Singapore, you can dine at the top floor level 57 at Marina Bay Sands instead of paying for the Skypark observation. We have really beautiful architectures in this city. Do go and explore if you haven't.
I love today beautiful fluffy clouds. This morning, the clouds are like soft fluffy cotton and this afternoon the clouds are much crisper and brighter with bright shining sun up in the sky. What a beautiful day today!

I took this photo of this amazing cloud formation like Yin Yang cloud where one part of the sky is filled with clouds and the other side devoid of cloud at my workplace at Singapore on 14 June 2021 morning. Amazing isn't it?
I'm pretty thankful to my government for giving out $100.00 Singapore Rediscover $100.00 vouchers to Singapore citizens (18 years old and above) to support local tourism in this pandemic. To show my support, I used the vouchers to purchase three Ducktour tickets for my parents and me. In the end, my father had another appointment so my other cousin joined us. My buddy aka my ex-colleague also join this duck tour with me using her Singapore Rediscover vouchers.
This duck tour allows you to explore Singapore on an amphibious Vietnamese war craft that used to transport ammunition in Vietnam war. Hmm, this is really creative reuse of an old war craft for recreation use now.
This 50 minutes tour started at the Suntec City where we went to collect the tickets. From Suntec City, it passes by the Singapore Flyer and then splashes to Marina Bay where you get to see Gardens by the Bay domes, Merlion and Art Science Museum on the sea. After the sea tour, you head back to the Suntec City and your get to see the historical Civic District and the Fountain of Wealth at Suntec City.

One of my favourite places in Singapore, the Esplanade theatres by the bay.
For the first time, River Hongbao show is held at the Gardens by the Bay instead of the Marina Bay platform.
Unlike previous years when you could just enter the premise, this time you have to book the tickets due to social distancing measures. I managed to book ticket on last Thursday 11 am and tickets ran out very fast.
Last Friday, my friend and I went to Gardens by the Bay and we managed to see some lantern light-ups at the Supertree area. I booked the ticket for this Saturday evening. I'll post some nice photos of the event.
