Our Honeymoon, Day 1, The Raffles Hotel, Singapore


After our wedding dinner, we spent our first 2 nights at the Raffles Hotel and flew to Melbourne where we spent another 2 nights before flying off to Tahiti.

This was our honeymoon story.

Day 1, The Raffles Hotel, Singapore:

The morning after the wedding, we were too tired to enjoy a buffet breakfast so we ordered in. Boo had a Spa Breakfast while I had a Japanese Breakfast in the dining area of our room.



We went for our spa appointment after our breakfast. Boo wore her own clothes while I wore the hotel bath robe and just my boxers as I had forgotten to pack my clothes for the hotel stay. It was a good thing that Raffles Amarita Spa was able to provide me with a pair of black shorts.





After the spa session, we stopped by the Raffles shop and bought ourselves each a t-shirt with the Raffles logo that commemorated their 120 years in existence. I never changed back to the bath robe. Instead opting to sign for the polo tee and walked out of the shop wearing it.

Lunch had to be something we may not be able to find as we may be away from Singapore for a while. So we headed for Suntec City to deposit our Ang Pow money and change some of it to AUD and USD. We finally decided to have tonkatsu at Tonkichi as Japanese food tend not to taste very authentic in Melbourne.

The butler service provided by The Raffles Hotel was very good. I had an allergic reaction that evening and rashes were breaking out all over my body. I paged for the butler and told her that I need antihistamines and she actually helped me to get it from me from the pharmacy.
