Sentosa Island

While we were in Singapore, we had a free day, and three of us girls and a couple of the guys went off to Sentosa Island for some beach time! Just getting there was an adventure in and of itself. We ended up taking the MRT (metro subway train thing) and then another train over to the island itself. We ate lunch at a sit down beach restaurant and I had fish and chips for the first time ever! It was absolutely delicious. They had margaritas that sounded good, but none of us wanted to pay $15 for one drink!

We decided to go to Tanjong beach on the island because we were told that it was much less crowded and mostly visited by local residents. Once we got there, we had the beach pretty much to ourselves except for one or two other couples. We spent a couple hours on the beach, laying in the sun and swimming, and then we swam out to a little island with lots of rocks and sat around there for a while.

Even though we wore sunscreen, I still ended up getting burnt on my shoulders! It was well worth it though, by far the most relaxing and fun day I have had on this trip so far!
