We didn't plan to go to Singapore, but because there's a promo flight in Airphil, so we just grabbed the opportunity 😄 And since this will be our first international flight, we need to do more research. First, the tourist spots, accommodation, and passports.
We found a cheap transient in Tampines, which is far in the city, but it is closer to the airport. So that's ok, and there's MRT 😊.
We made our down payment for the accommodation, 1 month prior to our arrival date
Next budget, we plan to spent just Php10,000, maximum will be Php12,000...haha (luckily, we were able to pull this off) and of course, our itinerary.
We bought our USS ticket online, to avoid falling in line at the counter.
Well before our flight, something happened.
Nov. 16, was the day they scheduled to release my brother's passport, but all of a sudden, they declared it a holiday. And now it will be released on the day of our flight. Crossfingers.
I went to the DFA early in the morning, and asked if the passports for November 16, are already availble, and they told me that it is not, and they may not be. They asked me if I could wait until 2pm, to have some updates. So I wait, I just prayed, that it will be availble by 2pm, because, we may need to cancel our trip if it happens 😱.
So I waited until 2pm, and thank God😂. Because my brother's passport was release on time. And now I need hurry and go to the airport, for our 4:40pm flight. Go! go! go!
My sister and brother were already at the airport by the time I got there. Luckily, the immigration lane was so quick and we just needed to wait for the boarding time 😊
This is our first international flight 😋 so, SINGAPORE, HERE WE COME!!!
We arrived at Changi airport around 8:00pm
We got our luggage, and bought a sim so we can call the owner (Lhanies) of the house, but weird thing is, they said that it is a wrong number. So we decided to just take a taxi and go directly to the house.
Well, fortunately, we found the right room at the condo building.
The taxi is expensive, for just a 10min ride, we paid SGD12, good thing it is close to the airport, or else...
And time to rest 😃
