Singapore twirl

As the travel bible says (The Lonely Planet), Singapore is the nicest place in South East Asia. It's clean, polite, orderly - and expensive! Having a great time. Outings have included a boat trip on the river, Chinatown, Little India, Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, and a few fab eating and drinking places around Clarke Quay and Boat Quay. There's a food festival on too - good timing or what!

I visited Orchard Road this morning, a great time to go shopping - none of the shops open before 11am. This afternoon we're checking out Marina Bay Sands. Then tomorrow it's home!!
