writing review:

Last week I had a trip to Singapore with our friend’s families and mine. All in all, Singapore is a very beautiful and good country. the first impression of this country was that it is very clean, especially taxis. All the taxis I took were very clean and they looked like a new car. The second impression was that the country is not big, and the distance between two tourist attractions was not long, so it was convenient from one tourist attraction to another tourist attraction. The third impression was that the prices in this country is very high. For example, I bought a cotton candy in the underwater world for my daughter, the price was s$7 which is equal to CNY 35. In China, the price of the cotton candy is less than CNY10
