Flight 2: Savannah --> Singapore

Well, hello Singapore!
The flights over (26 hours total) were nothing much to talk about, I survived. However, I never want to arrive at 2am in a foreign country utterly alone and lost ever again. Recipe for distress, disaster, and getting ripped off.

I'm living at the Orchard Grand Court Hotel for three days, right by the center of town. Here's my hotel room:


Views from my hotel room window! Prettyyyyy


Updates on what I've been doing later...

Flight 1: Boston --> Savannah

My plane in Boston got delayed after we boarded because of some mechanical error, so I missed my connection in Washingtion DC, Dulles Airport by four minutes, grrr. This was around 9pm, so the next United flight to Savannah wasn't until noon the next day. They shoved me a new ticket, hotel and meal vouchers and left me to bewilderedly find my way. When I finally arrived at 11pm, the hotel itself was really nice, the Hyatt Dulles:

This was my room!
