Day 1:
We boarded our flight at Don Mueang Airport at 5:30 PM and arrived at Changi Airport Terminal 4 around 9:15 PM local time. Singapore is one hour ahead of Thailand. We were excited to begin our adventure!
We have successfully exchanged money from Thailand.
After clearing immigration, follow the signs for Bus to T2 & MRT to board the free bus to Terminal 2. From there, you can take the MRT (Changi Station).
After a short ride, I arrived at Terminal 2. I then followed the signs for "Train to City" to board the Mrt.

Before boarding the MRT, we first need to purchase an EZ-link card. The card costs SGD 12, which includes SGD 5 for the card itself and SGD 7 in stored value. We topped up the card with an additional SGD 10. After obtaining the card, we took the MRT to our hostel.
From Changi Station (Jo koon), change at Expo (Bukit Panjang), change at Chinatown (Punggol), and arrive at Clarke Quay. Exit E, turn left, walk through the tunnel to the second bridge. The hostel will be on your right. The hostel we booked is 5Footway.inn Project Boat Quay, booked through the Agoda app. We booked 3 nights for 5,546 baht. We chose this place because it is conveniently located near the Clarke Quay MRT and Marina Bay, and the price is not too expensive.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by a friendly staff member who assisted us with checking in to our room via a convenient kiosk.
Please translate the following sentence:
After packing our belongings, we had some time to explore the area around Clarke Quay.

After a short walk, we started to feel hungry. We bought some instant noodles at the minimart next to the MRT Clark Quay and sat down to eat by the river. It was a different kind of atmosphere.
[Day 2]
We woke up at 6 am today because we had a packed schedule. The hostel had breakfast, but we didn't have time to eat because we had plans to eat breakfast at Ya Kun Kaya Toast. It was very quiet here on a weekend morning. We took some photos along the way.
Please translate the following sentence:
The journey began with a 15-minute walk from our accommodation, leading us to Ya Kun Kaya Toast, a renowned establishment specializing in Singaporean breakfast cuisine.
The branch we visited is the oldest one, located at 18 China Street, near Fareast Square and Chinatown.
The menu offers both set and individual options. We opted for a set to share, as we weren't particularly hungry, and added a cup of hot ginger tea. Initially, we chose set C, but the staff recommended set A, claiming we wouldn't regret it. Well, if they say so, we had to try it! And they were right, it was delicious. The crispy, toasty bread, fresh from the charcoal oven, paired perfectly with the sweet and creamy kaya and butter. We enjoyed it with soft-boiled eggs and, of course, a cup of strong coffee.
After lunch, we walked to the People Park shopping mall to buy Universal tickets at the Sea Wheel Travel shop.
The shop is located on the 3rd floor. This shop is popular among Thai people because it sells tickets at a cheaper price than buying them at the event. The ticket price is $68.
After shopping, we went for a walk in Chinatown.
This area is teeming with a variety of small shops, including restaurants, cafes, hotels, and souvenir shops. The buildings here are predominantly colonial in style, adorned with colorful lanterns.
We took a leisurely stroll, stopping to browse souvenirs, until we arrived at the Sri Mariamman Temple, the oldest temple in Chinatown and a registered historical site. Its most striking feature is the majestic, towering gopuram at the entrance.
