This route takes us to the stations along the North East Line. Starting at HarbourFront, we went to Outram Park, then Dhoby Ghaut, then Serangoon, then Hougang, then Sengkang, and finally Punggol.
We had lunch at City Square Mall (top floor food court). And we had drinks at Heartland Mall (Burger King). Then we had dinner at Waterway Point (So Pho).
The journey was quite fulfilling, as it's quite an achievement to clear an entire MRT line at once. From the very bottom of Singapore, to the north east coast, we got to see many different parts of Singapore. The journey was pretty linear, so our straight line distance was pretty good. I think the bad parts were at the very start, where we had to make a big detour to find our way to Outram Park. Another bad part was the section between Sengkang and Punggol, which was quite far. But I think that's mostly Donovan complaining about it. I find it okay leh.
If you want to try this route, wait until the Circle Line is complete, then all the construction will disappear, making the early portion much more navigable.
