Relaxing Day at Capella, Sentosa

Kaiwei and Yanni had a staycation at Capella and they graciously invited us over to check out the resort/room before adjourning to W hotel for dinner. As we drove into the driveway of Capella, I felt as if I was transported into a different country even though in reality, we were still in Singapore. Yanni & I began our self-declared tai-tai training for this day, lol! First,  we headed over to the tea lounge for afternoon high tea. 
With our partners, Leecher & Kaiwei. While the wives dreamt of being tai-tai, they also aspire to be man-tai, lol!
Afternoon tea began its roots back in England, in the year 1840. The traditional afternoon tea consisted of a selection of dainty sandwiches, scones served with clotted cream, preserves, cakes and pastries served on delicate chinaware.
We chilled out at the lounge for a couple of hours eating our fill of sandwiches, cakes and cookies. They even served moon cakes, as Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching. We then headed to the pool for a quick swim. The pools weren't great for swimming - more of hanging out. A Taiwanese couple was making out in the pool, even though there were kids playing around them. We decided to call it a day but the guys had something else in mind. 
The guys decided to check out the beach! We followed the path and walked downhill before seeing a side door that leads to the beach. Since Yanni & I had already "washed up", we sat at the beach while the boys headed out for a swim in the sea. 
After the boys had their fun, we went back to freshen up before heading out for dinner. This dinner was to celebrate Kaiwei's birthday! I brought my new lens along and I was still adjusting to the new focal length of this lens. 
Quick pic with Yanni before the lift door closed, lol! #cheapthrill. I will be blogging about the dinner at Skirt, W Hotel in the next entry, so keep a lookout for it!
