Today's tour started off at the URA centre where we got a bird's eye view of the island of Singapore. The models were built accurately to match the real thing. A video presentation and game hosted by Gurmit Singh gave us an insight on Singapore's history. Surprisingly, the book of places you should see before you die say's that you should go to Singapore's food centre's to before you get your 1 way ticket to heaven. After that, we went for a tour around the historical places. Unfortunately, we couldn't walk around Chinatown as it was raining. but we did get to walk around Kampong Glam and Little India as the rain had subsided by then. At Little India, we entered a temple. The statues inside were very beautifully carved and did not fail to amaze. The little knick-knacks sold at kampong glam were interesting as well, ranging from wooden stuff to old tin toys.

We went to the Little India, URA and the temple today. The stuff there was really cheap and beautiful. I bought lots of things there for my family and friends, and of course also some for myself too. I bought a small little handbag for myself and a scarf for my teacher in Hong Kong. There are many things that i actually wanted to buy but i think that there are more in other places.

We went shopping today. I learny lots of things although we just spent a little time for each place. I think do everything can learn things , including shopping. We can see a lot of things, and we can say that this widens our horizons. I enjoyed today's shopping.

Today the whole group went to Chinatown,Little India and Kampong Glam.I went there before a few years ago.But I did not go to Chinatown when i'm in primary school.Of course,I did not shop as much in the cultural tours.The shops in Kampong Glam have many interesting items.There are miniature majong tiles,and some toys.Overall this whole trip is is really fruitful-for my buddy.On the bus,i was so tired that i had to take a nap on the bus!

Today, our school brought us to URA Building, Little India and Kampong Glam. These places have rich cultures and history beneath them. Firstly, we went to school as per usual and then we were released at 1.10pm and boarded the bus at 2pm. We visited URA Building first as we were presented with a 3D model of Singapore. I found my mother's new and old office and told my buddy about it. Next we visited Kampong Glam as we went to shop a little before we went to Little India. In Kampong Glam, we were exposed to the rich malay/arab culture and bought a few things for gifts. We also shopped a little in Little India before we went home and rest.

Today, we visited the URA Building, Little India and Kampong Glam. In the URA Building, we had a quiz about social knowledges of Singapore, a light show and we have seen the 3D map of Singapore, we learnt about the urban planning of Singapore.Later, we went to Little India.We tried some traditional food of Indians.The taste is quite strange to me.Then, we have been to Kampong Glam and go for shopping.I bought some Voodoo Doll for my brother and myself. At last, we returned home at halfpast six.
