A day in Singapore

A light breakfast and then hitting the streets. We walked and walked seeing Hindu temples, Mosques, Buddhist temples and Cathedrals. The Temples have it hands down for colour and interest as the cathedral was white and large and traditional.

L and M both decided on a henna tattoo. L going for a traditional hand and finger decoration, while M took on a Chinese dragon.

We took a bus around from Little India to Chinatown and had lunch in a food hall populated by locals. SGD2.50 for chicken and noodles but the most interesting was when we visited the food market in the basement. All manner of fruit, veg, fish and meats to be found and then we stumbled upon the 'live section'. Frogs, eels and catfish swimming around in buckets. B1, B2 and M had a time trying to capture an eel each in their bare hands - so brave and then the alcohol hand wash came out afterwards.

L was most impressed with Orchard Road - the names just rattled off her lips - D &G; YSL; Armani. I noticed the Chanel, but she s things like Forever 21 and Top Shop.

After a late afternoon nap we're off to find a curry for dinner - a nice cold beer as well.
