1 June (Sat) Inflight… in the air…

Inflight meal: Seafood meal - nice, comes with ice cream. Something new, a different packaging for the butter and milk. 

Love  the return of the hot towel. Hm… being seated right at the last row, the air stewardess missed me. Have to ask for it. Hm… service fall short of. 


Inflight movie, this time, chose to watch 2 Singapore productions: 

  • King of Hawkers
  • What the Heist 

Between the two, the “King of Hawkers” has a more interesting storyline, that goes with Singapore’s accolade - having “Hawker Culture” being inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity on 16 Dec 2020. However, the story resembles some of the HK long ago movies like “God of Food”. 

“What the Heist” follow the no-surprise story ending - all ends well. Again, some elements of the HK movies - some action, but not much.






1 June (Sat) Departing Singapore

I was early… 3 hours or more. 

After checking in the baggage, ventured to the well-known Butterfly Garden at Terminal 3. Not that big actually, I think, though there are 2 levels (entrance at level 1)… pretty crowded as long as the patrons intend to hang around for a while. 




Something interesting, I thought. The garden is filled with fragrance of pineapples! 

Now, I learnt an interesting fact - butterflies are attracted to pineapples! 

The long wait (close to 2 hours) had given me sometime to really sit down to read a book - ok, finished close to ½ the book. What an achievement!
