I’m in Singapore. Exciting because I’ve never been there. I could also file it under hot as well because that is what it also is. I have posted some photos. Left Australia at 9pm on Emirates. Didn’t get a buisness class upgrade but did get 3 seats to myself. Watched Spiderman 2 again then stretched out for a nap. Probably got about 4 hours. (Its about an 8 hour flight) – Got to the hotel about 3:20am local time (5:20am Brisbane time) for another few hours sleep.

So what to do when your in Singapore for a day? Shop! Ofcourse I’ll be in Singapore for two days this trip (on the way back too) so I saved the shopping till then. Reframing the question: What to do in Singapore for the first of two days when you don’t want to carry your shopping around the whole trip? Walk around like a tourist (fortunately I was) Walked for about 3 and half hours and this is what I saw:

• Chinatown.
• The Merlion (I asked one of the guys I was travelling with, If I was in singapore for one day and had to take a photo of something so people would know I was in Singapore what should I take a photo of? The Merlion is the answer)
• Raffles Landing Site

New items learnt about Singapore:

• Raffles is the name of the British person that founded it
• Driving a car is regulated. Only a certain number of people are allowed to own cars and drive them around. (To keep the poluition and congestion down) You get a license to use your car for a year.
• Other stuff that I’ll edit in later like it really here the whole time

Off to the airport and on to India.
