Singapore and Malaysia 2018, May 03 (Prologue)

Just a whole day spent (wasted) travelling, the standard for travelling international:

  • 8:30am
    • Stuck in traffic in Greensborough!
  • 9.30am
    • The Qantas check-in line took forever, expected better from a 'premium' airline
  • 12:00pm
    • Left almost on time
  • 1:00pm
    • Watched Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, not great but helped pass the time
  • 6.00pm
    • Arrived in Singapore, got a bonus 2 hours from the timezone change
  • 7.00pm
    • The immigration queue took like half an hour, just wasn't moving
    • Had those stupid individual lines instead of a single long line
  • 7:30pm
    • Managed to get money from the ATM using my bank card, off to a good start this time
    • Didn't buy a SIM card yet, realised I forgot I can't get the SIM card slot open!
  • 9:00pm
    • Train to Chinatown, had to change lines after one stop, then took about an hour
    • Still like 25 degrees outside, walk to hotel
  • 10:00pm
    • Had a quick walk around to get some good, found some safety pins
    • 7-eleven had all advertising on the door about SIM cards, but had run out of everything!
    • 7-eleven was selling Match Attax cards at least
