Because Singapore is closer to the equator, the heat seems to be more intense! To be honest, heat is my enemy and I think I must have been an eskimo in my past life because I love the cold and I love winter! LOL! The birthday girl, Ruffa, organized a morning pool party and a yummy crab lunch at the world famous no signboard! I was so excited because I really love their chili crab!
.

This is Marina Bay Sands hotel! It seems I was revolving around this place the whole time I was in Singapore.
.
Our crew got bigger when darling friends Garlic, Crystalle, Divine and Victor joined. We had a fantastic time feasting on fresh seafood and lots of crabs.
.

My favorites arrived! D+V! Met up at the NO SIGNBOARD seafood restaurant.

BFF's Crystalle and Garlic with the birthday girl!

We started ordering and in minutes the cereal prawns arrived! So fresh and oh so good!

White pepper crab! Light and subtle flavors bring out the sweetness of the crab.

The lunch crew!

This is my favorite! Chili crab! The crab is slowly cooked in this rich safron colored lake of goodness! The sauce alone is already worth the trip to Singapore. I could lap it all up and just go straight to heaven after! This just makes me smile!

Had to strike a pose!

Cabs were few and hard to find! I found that really frustrating about this trip to Singapore. Managed to make it a photo opportunity instead.
.
We all decided to check out the Marina Bay Sands mall! I have never been to the new Marina Bay Sands and by the looks of it, I wanted to see up close this new icon of Singapore with its bustling architectural landscape. The Mall was quite impressive. It had all the major stores from Prada to Pucci and everything else in between. This is the place to do your power shopping and also a power walk because the mall seems endless. The mall has a restaurant line up that would make any foodie faint! Names like Batalli, Bouloud, Savoy! OHVEY! were all competing for my attention. LOL! Sadly we did not have time to try any of these restaurants in this trip. Motivating me to plan a fun trip in the future.

Had to check out the new mall at the Marina Bay Sands hotel! View from the bottom!

The super gigantic mall!

My girls!

Lion King was showing and they had a display of the magical costumes.

I saw it years ago and I can't wait to take my nieces and nephew to see it with me again.
.
After the mall, we all converged at the penthouse of Ruffa’s friends where they were having a pool party and BBQ. I guess the pool parties were really needed to cool everyone down. It was very chill and relaxed. From there, Ruffa hired a PARTY BUS to shuttle us around the city! It was a brilliant move on her part because weekends and taxi cabs don’t happen in this town! LOL! The party bus was HUGE! Seating more than 40 people.
.

- Moved to a pool and bbq party and they had the men stewing in the pool! It was a bit like a buffet no? LOL!

Gorgeous women! Ruffa with Stephanie Zubiri and Mika Lagdameo-Martinez.

Had to take a photo of the party bus! It was HUGE!!!!

Fierce Dong meets his shopping match! Leah de Guzman.

My seatmate was the super sweet Crystalle Belo Henares

The party continues in the disco bus!

Found William and asked him to join in!

Only if he flashed us every 5 minutes! LOL!
.
Next stop was Lantern Bar at the new Fullerton Hotel! I loved the views! We all had a fantastic time having an impromptu photo shoot overlooking the fabulous Marina Bay Sands Hotel. More friends joined the party and enjoyed the flowing champagne. It was great to see friends from all over gather to celebrate with Ruffa.
.

- Got to the Fullerton Bay hotel and loved the interiors!

Had to pose! It was breathtaking!

BFF'S! Garlic and Crystalle!

The views around the bar!

Our friend Christian Bautista joined in! So proud of this young man. He is in Singapore shooting a musical! I think he will be a major major international star! SOON!

Ruffa and the gang! The party gets bigger and better!

Ruffa and more friends! Christian, Leah, JM, Divine, Karylle and Jackie!
.
We hopped on the bus again. ( This party made me think like this is really a party marathon! ) This time headed to KUDETA Club! Touted to be the hottest club to go to in Singapore. Situated at the peak of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel! The place was really HOT! Figuratively and literally! Good thing, I had my fan, if not I would have passed out! More champagne came like there was not tomorrow! We all danced and drank till the wee hours of the morning! I called it a day at close to 4am and managed to get home in one piece! LOL! Happy birthday Ruffa!
.

Headed now to KUDETA located at the Marina Bay Sands! this is the cool lobby!

Detail of the super high ceilings!

Went up to the peak and this is what you will see!

Had a chance to see the world's longest infinity pool! Plus one amazing view!

Champagne for the Birthday girl!

Ruffa looks so happy!

Cheers sweetie!

Tim Yap finally arrives and immediately parties with the girls!
