Chinese New Year - Orchard Style

If you hate squeezing through Chinatown streets buying the Chinese New Year goodies, maybe you can try Orchard road? Slightly quieter, but definitely still able to get what you want. The goodies' pic is taken in Basement level Takashimaya.

Complicated Singapore

If you are wondering where are the places people speaks about in relation to the very moment you landed at Singapore International Airport - Changi, see pic 1 left. Taking a cab to Orchard area should take you only about 30 mins with a relative smooth ride. Out of the airport, you should be on the expressway marked 'City', any other way, the driver is taking you for a ride. From East to West is less than 50km, so go figure. Use that distance as a reference to any other parts of Singapore.
