“We’re gonna have a sixteen-hour layover in Singapore,” I told C as I was sorting out our Scoot flight from Manila to Australia. “Is that okay with you? What can we do in Singapore for sixteen hours?” I asked her.

“Eat!” was her one-word reply.

It was past nine when we arrived at Singapore’s Changi Airport. We’re taking it slow—browsing at the cameras shops, looking for Starbucks mugs, and checking out Lego prices—we’re not in a hurry, after all, we still have more than enough time to go to the city, eat our favorite dishes, and walk around a bit before going back for our Scoot Singapore to Sydney flight which was still at one in the morning.
