LUXURIOUS YACHT SINGAPORE CITY SKYLINE CRUISE | FROM SENTOSA COVE TO MARINA BAY - ONLY $50 MOCKTAIL INCLUDED

ABBEY: Being on a yacht cruise is one of the items in my list. At last we managed to book a 1-hr City Skyline Cruise on December 12. This includes a mocktail. We’re ready and excited for our cruise. But a couple of hours before our schedule I got a call that due to bad weather it will be cancelled. We were able to reschedule it at the end of January the next year. Come that day, we’re at One15 Marina Club thirty minutes early.

We onboarded late but the crew assured us that we will be having our whole 60 minutes. And just we were promised we maximized our time; taking snaps with Singapore Skyline and explore the perimeter of Singapore Southern Islands. We enjoyed the whole time and even got a tote bag as souvenir. This is indeed a new way to explore the Red Dot. 



WILL: We are scheduled to have this yacht cruise for our festivity celebration BUT the weather didn’t  permit it. After waiting almost 2 months we were re-scheduled. Anyways! Safety first right? 

 What you will expect at the yacht Singapore skyline tour? Well, it is an hour of travel. You will be seeing the Lazarus Island, Sister and Kusu Island. You will be having a cute lecture about Singapore’s history. You will see for yourself the floating hotel that is on standby for sudden COVID influx. Of course the sight of Marina Bay will not be missed. Be cautious Singapore has huge waves maybe because of the cargo ships moving around the island. 

Yacht Cruise is only $50 (mocktail included) if you book through Sentosa but you can book directly to Le Tara look for kabayan Capt. Fred and you know the drill right? Cough** Discount - Cough**Freebies Haha.

Natureland Spa Premium at Marina Bay Sands

ABBEY: At last after almost two years, our bodies got themselves a massage from a premium spa Natureland (Marina Bay Sands). Have a reservation before you head there. The session was 30 minutes behind the schedule but we got a nice couple room. I told the masseuse not to be fooled by Wilma’s built and they can give her a hard massage. 

I enjoyed the neck cracking and “elbowing”. I felt my spine decompressed, my shoulders and calves relaxed. I was continuously asked if I’m OK, which I am. All the muscle stiffness is gone. I turned into a jelly. Haha. 

We were given ginger tea and water after the session. Definitely recommended!

WILL: Natureland Spa branches are sprouting in many places in Singapore and one of their newest premier branch is at Marina Bay Sands. 

We booked 4PM and arrived on time but I am not sure what happened and our schedule was pushed to 440pm. Before 5PM we are already at one of their couple room and we were handed a disposable underwears. The room, the sheets are clean and pleasantly smells. We chose exotic oil aroma for our massage.

Abbey advised my masseur that I need a hard massage and it is the start of my new life! Haha! The masseur frantically kneaded my back, my shoulder and side of my ribcage. It is a total relief. This is one if the few spa that I will give a 5-Stars. Haha!

Definitely will comeback by April.

Café De Muse at Shaw House | 24 Hours Cafe in Orchard

ABBEY: After a hearty Japanese lunch, we went to Cafe de Muse to have our caffeine fix. I had Vanilla Latte. It taste like my childhood drink Sustagen. 

A bit disappointed though as I’m expecting more coffee flavor at the bottom. I thought the vanilla taste will fade as a drink it but turns out it drowned the espresso shot. I also tried their not-too-sweet ondeh ondeh cake. Other cakes like basque burnt cheesecake and black forrest are available.

WILL: After our movie with Wonder Woman, we went to Muse Cafe to wash down our Japanaese cuisine lunch. Muse Cafe is 24-hour cafe located at the heart of Orchard. You can see them if you pass by at the Shaw building. 

Their spot is perfect for people watching  Due to non-stop cravings of sweet and coconut bits, of course, Abbey and I ordered for their Ondeh-ondeh cake. It is YUM! The sweetness, creamy texture and the good amount of coconut bits were present. Ondeh-ondeh cake was partnered with pot of Muse Special tea. Perfect! Did I mention that their price point is lower and their serving size is bigger than your well-known cafe? This is a good place to visit whenever you are in Orchard.

Wonder Woman 1984 - Singapore iMax

ABBEY: I was excited waking up on Christmas Day. This is the day with Gal Gadot via WW1984. To be honest I’m not an avid fan of Wonder Woman and doesn’t know the story in depth. For me it is just like another kid’s superhero movie: small guy became big guy then goes bad but hero saves the day and ending. 

But the scene where Gal used the Lasso of Truth to communicate to people is really touching. As they say the truth shall prevail. Gal (Wonder Woman) is beautiful whenever she laughs, smile, sarcastic or even cries. Spoiler Alert: Wait for the OG Wonder Woman at the end.

WILL: Abbey’s all time crush. This will be our first and last movie screening for year 2020. Ohh. COVID! Haha. So Wonder Woman is not from planet Earth, ahhmmm am I correct? Haha! She is powerful woman that can swing by the clouds and lightning. 

Ohh, sorry but it is so childish. As usual, Wonder Woman 1984 is catered for DC fans. I am Marvel. So what can you expect? I can’t fathom the storyline. Well, whatever. It is feel good movie but not my cup of tea.
