NUH Parking Woes?
So, I'm visiting my aunt at the National University Hospital, NUH for short, and parking is a NIGHTMARE. Seriously, I circled the entire block three times. It's like they designed the place to be be… more
Oof, NUH parking is legendary for its…challenges. Three times around the block? I feel your pain. My grandma used to get stuck there for ages. There aren't really any "secret" lots, sadly. Your best bet is to arrive super early, like ridiculously early, or use the public transport. The MRT is pretty close, and honestly, the walk is probably less painful than circling for an hour. Failing that, maybe try one of the nearby HDB carparks a bit further away – it’ll be cheaper at least, but yeah, the walk's a killer.
MBS Infinity Pool: Worth the Hype?
So, I'm heading to Marina Bay Sands next month. Staying at the hotel, naturally. Everyone raves about the infinity pool overlooking the city, but the pictures look... photoshopped. Is the view *rea… more
Yeah, the pictures are a little over-the-top. It's still amazing, though. Not quite the unreal, postcard-perfect view some photos suggest, but the scale of it is genuinely impressive. The pool itself is really nice—clean, well-maintained, etc. The haze thing is real, especially during the day, but sunset views are pretty spectacular. Save the telescope, unless you're planning on birdwatching. You'll get a great view without needing extra magnification. Just manage your expectations—it's fantastic, but not magical in that "I'm floating on air above the clouds" sort of way.
Totally get what you mean. I've seen those photos too – seriously misleading! Good to know about the haze, though. I'm thinking sunset is the way to go then. Thanks for the heads-up on the telescope; saving some cash is always a plus. Sounds like a solid "expensive but worth it" kind of situation.
