Singapore - Day 3 Return to Adelaide

Carol elects to stay in again. She will finish packing for this evening's return to Adelaide. 

We have a new visa and are good until Oct 4, 2024 but still with the silly 90-day departure requirements.

CJ is off on an adventure. He takes a taxi to Mount Faber to catch the gondola to Sentosa Island. He intends to try to hurt himself trying to keep up with the kiddies on Sentosa's Luge runs.

The gondola delivers him to the Luge. It is a scenic ride with views of the Singapore Straits, Sentosa Island, and Singapore.

Two luge runs later, he is dripping sweat, his shirt is glued to his body and soaked through as are his shorts and underwear.

It is a struggle to board the gondola for the return ride. With the way he is sweating it is a wonder they allow him to board. Leaving Mount Faber, his attention was on the straits and city views. Returning he's drawn to the wooded density of Mount Faber. Hidden amongst its forest are colonial houses.

The return taxi ride is exciting when the driver achieves speeds of 80km/hr through Singapore's CBD streets.

By five pm, we are in the Singapore Airlines lounge at the airport. It is a long six hours before our flight and a too short six hours back to Adelaide, too short to get good sleep.

All good things eventually come to an end.
