Malaysia in a day

 


Driving from Singapore across Johor Straits to Malaysia.

What better way to celebrate Chinese New Year than to go to Legoland Malaysia. 



When we were done with the water park, we explored the local area. 
The fish scooping game. 

At a newly built shopping centre in a newly built suburb

This is how locals do Chinese New Year

Sentosa Island

 Today was literally a washout, as we went to a water park on Sentosa Island. But it's more than just theme parks, it's Singapore's playground. It's like a jungle island with fancy beach resorts, but full of entertainment from bungee jumping, to iFly, a casino, luge track. You could easily stay on the island and not see the rest of city. 



Also, Sentosa is the southern most tip of the Asian continent.

Orchard Road is basically 2km of wall-to-wall shopping malls. 


Starting at Plaza Singapura which is 7 above-ground floors, and another 2 below ground. 


Ending at ION shopping mall, which has an obervation deck on the 55th floor. 


The lift goes from level 4 to 55 with nothing in between!
