Day 4 - Wednesday 11 March

Singapore - Melbourne

After breakfast, we checked out of our hotel, and caught a taxi to Changi, for our flight home.

Even quieter within a few days.

We took the opportunity to explore the three airport terminals.

Less than 40 passengers on our flight home!

Whilst we're disappointed that the first part of our holiday (2 months cruise + Italy) has been significantly changed, we're grateful to have arrived home safely and healthily, in preparation for the continued global crisis.

Day 3 - Tuesday 10 March

Singapore - Day 3

We had a look through the nearby Bugis Junction Shopping Centre.

We walked to the recently renovated and iconic Raffles Hotel -  https://www.raffles.com/singapore/ (we stayed here 38 years ago!).

Next we wandered around Raffles City Shopping Centre.

After lunch, Di continued her retail review, and Bill went exploring this wonderfully-designed city.
