From Colonial District to the Quays to the Bay

overcast 29 °C

Late afternoon around 6:30pm I walked from my hotel, back to Chijmes to take photos (have to wait before I can put them here). Then walked to Clarke Quay, then Boat Quay. Took a rest in Boat Quay, sitting by the river. It was 8pm. After giving my legs a little rest and taking some photos, I continued walking along the river to the bay where Merlion statue stands. Very thirsty and started to get hungry. Took photos of Esplanade Theatre on the bay and the Merlion statue. Walked back to Boat Quay, had a few gulp of cold bottled water, and walked to MRT station - I wouldn't go back to the hotel by foot, no thanks.

Took a train ride to Bugis and had dinner at Bugis Junction. When I left it was 10pm, I walked back to the hotel, tired but satisfied. Instead of spending time at the gym on treadmill getting nowhere, what I did is better. I walked, got sweaty and got to many places.
