Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated. While deleting them, I noticed that many restaurants and bakeries no longer exist, with some marked as unknown on the map.

Day 3: Marina Bay Sands Shopping Mall

My mom and I decided to roam around The Shops at the Marina Bay Sands before we will transfer to Crowne Plaza Hotel near the airport.

It is best time to visit the place when it is not so hot. It is best to bring an umbrella or hat to wear during your visit. I can warn you there is a lot of walking and if you are bringing elderly people they may have a difficult time exploring the area.

My mom had complained the whole time. I had ended up holding her hand bag. The time she had walked at her pace and rested at the chairs available it is best to bring drinking water during your visit.









 There is a casino at the shopping mall. You are required to show your passport before you enter.

Did you know people who are a residence in Singapore are not allowed to enter the casino only foreigner who is visiting?

My mom wanted to check out the place. The funny part people kept telling me I don't look like a person who can enter inside. People keep thinking I am still a minor. It is a good compliment when people don't know your real age as you keep traveling with your mom.
