Good morning from Singapore!

We landed nice and early, and it wasn’t too much of a Taxi before we pulled up at the far end of the F gates. That meant that it was a major stomp from there to immigration thankfully there were multiple travelators along the way









immigration was empty and it was straight to an E gate and straight through.

The bags took, maybe, 10 minutes before they started to arrive and mine was the fifth one off priority baggage actually seems to work for Singapore airline!

Then it was a short stroll through customs and to Gate 3 to meet my driver who was not there yet as I was much earlier than expected on the ground. It took him about 10 minutes to arrive.

The drive to the hotel was fun. He was a good conversationalist and was telling me all kinds of things about Singapore and the joys of living here. eventually we made it to the four points by Sheraton which will be my bed for the next three nights





I was amazingly happy to find that the room was available given that this is a little after 7 am. That’s some kind of Early check in! A standard room with no status upgrades, but I’m not complaining I’ll take the seven hour early check-in any day!






i’m also very thankful that check-in was quick and efficient because I’ve been in the room no more than two minutes when the explanation for my lack of appetite became very apparent. Let us just say that my next few meals are liable to be Imodium green lipped muscles and oysters anyone? 🙄

I was already planning on just crashing and burning when I got here but given the circumstance I suspect I’ll also not be wanting to wander too far from the room for some time!

It’s like I’m trying to get the full set of common traveller ailments in one trip!
