Hippo Tours in Bedok North

  Two days ago, when I was going to Sentosa to attend a Wedding Dinner with my father, I saw something blue, and the double deck's got an open top. I could see some words like 'Hippo Tours' or something like that.
  
  I was so surprised as to why it got away from the city and came to an area where people are unfamiliar with it. The open top bus is also rare in a place where passenger demand is moderate. Anyone staying in Bedok North spotted this bus outside your HDB apartment or saw it going anywhere outside city? Also, what's the rego of the bus?

  I have seen Hippotours in places like BKE (going to zoo), and Purpee along Lor 7 Toa Payoh, and Pinkie along Lorong 8.

  The air in the east is cleaner. The west got too many factories and industries... Air not very good...
