Day One

　　Day one, with the only 2 SG dollars, we began to walk on the morning Orchard Rd. Money changer opens 9:30 and underground needs 2 dollar each, 1 dollar for deposit of the card.
　　So the first day, we are mainly seeking a good money changer. Lane said the best price is on Raffles Place, then we confused it with Raffles Hotel. Anyway, see a lot while walking.
　　Both of us forgot why we came here, waiting for the off time and began adventure.
　　First day lost my secureID card on cab, very inconvinient. Called the cab company to report the lost, FEW said the chance to get it back is quite big, for it will be a big thing if they find out a thief in this city.

Lovers at singapore river side. On right, a single man, left, the couple. So we decided to steal an extra chair to put bags on from left side. Well, it will be unacceptable for the single, but surely there will be no space for a nonsence chair in the eyes of lovers. :)

　　So it is really a comfort when think of coming closer to equator and people will weight less, haha
　　I agree it is the phoenix wood. Actually I thought might be 凤凰木、相思 木棉 and so on but can't remember exactly.
