After 6 months of waiting, the day we've been waiting for has finally come! Supposedly it's a Superfriends' plan but the promo was not enough to accommodate all of us. And just in time, Lesio & Babaks gave their big yes to pursue our long time dream!
Since, Babaks & I have gotten to Palawan and Baguio and with Lesio in Boracay last year, we need to beat our travel destination this 2015. And what can we think would be the better place to go? of course, to travel outside the country! This will be our first international flight together and so everything was thoroughly planned. And since I was tasked to plan our itineraries, I should not fail theirs & my expectations.
And the day has finally come...WELCOME TO SINGAPORE AND MALAYSIA!!!
This is the JaChellElizAdventures!!!

05:30 am - To Golden Mile Tower (5001 Beach Road #01-12 GM Complex Transtar Counter): Billion Star Bus
Took our breakfast (pancit and bihon) the fastest way since that's the only hawker open at that very early and we were afraid that the bus might leave us!hehe
7:30 am - SG to KL (Php2,177 v.v. reserved ahead) bus departed at 8 am.
It was also then we realized that sunrise will took at 7 am and sunset at 7 pm in SG. Got a chance to look around the City inside the bus while we were on our way going out. We saw the Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay but we have to take the KL itineraries first.
From time to time we slept. We took down from the bus to get inside the immigration in SG (1 hour) nearing the border to KL. Then again we took down after we crossover the bridge to enter the immigration in Malaysia. From there, it took more than 4 hours to get to KL.
