It was an interesting time to be in Singapore with the coronavirus just emerging. We were very impressed with their public health messages such as videos showing on big screens outside shopping malls and posters. We were reassured with the authority’s contact tracing and monitoring of new cases in the media. We were impressed to see that the Apple Store had hand sanitisers at the entrance and that everyone was using them. We took universal precautions and stayed away from public transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I liked when we went to the Merlion. I also liked the hostel and the food courts.<\/p>Martha<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It was hot and humid but I liked the food, especially the meat and rice!<\/p>Sam<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Sam and Martha enjoyed eating at the various food courts and hawker stalls. Sam particularly enjoyed our 2 visits to the Michelin star stall Hawker Chan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We felt that there were less tourists around than there would have normally been, especially around Chinatown. In our short time in Singapore we were able to visit all the places that we wanted to but would like to return and see more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
