Day 2 of JM's Simulator Trip - Florida

Though I had the whole night alone, but I bearly could drag myself up this morning. I'd promise my FIL to bring him down to Marina Bay Sands (MBS) for round 2 of family gathering. Got to get dressed up for the event and reach his place by 11:00am.

To make matter worse, my GPS is not update with MBS's coordinates!!! Got to study the route to MBS online and keep it stored in my mind.

12:00pm - Arrival at MBS ... safe and sound. But only upon arrival then I knew there is no public parking at MBS hotel itself. Hotel parking is all via Valet. If wana park myself, got to park at the shopping centre section and walk over. To save trouble, I'd decided to valet the car but only to realise that valet charges as follows:-

1) Hotel Guest - $12/day
2) Non Hotel Guest - $12 for 1st hour. $1 per subsequent 1/2 hour up to max $26 per day.

I almost fainted when I heard it but no choice ... committed liao.

When asked for directions to head to the hotel room, we were told that we had to either register our names at the counter before heading up to the room or get the guest to come down to get us. For this, of cos we rang up the guest and got them to come get us. After all, relatives right ... no need to 客气 with them.

JM's cousin and her hubby stayed at the Chairman Suite at MBS ... located at the 54th level. Private lift up to the level and quite a spectacular view from up there. Lunch was served right in the suite and after that we were escorted to the Sky Park for a 'tour'.

Very good service right ... but you can't expect less if you are paying $7000 plus for a night's stay in that room I say ... LOL

Check out the view that we had HERE!!!
