I am very impressed with Sinapore. Its a lovely city, clean, friendly, multi cultural and very interesting. But…. its hasn’t stopped raining since I arrived! Think the recent floods in Dublin…. except it isn’t so bad because it is warm and you soon dry out. This afternoon, I went on a city tour. It was slightly alternative but very enjoyable. We saw the famous Singapore Merlion (in the rain), the oldest Chinese Temple in Singapore (in the rain), a factory where they make pictures from hand polished gem stones (indoors, phew), the beautiful National Orchid Garden at the Botantic Gardens (both the rain and the orchids were amazing) and Little India (not impressive in the rain).
This evening I met up with Rachel Ruddy and we had a lovely Indian meal in Boat Quay – still raining. Rachel is here working as a physio – there are no jobs for young graduate physios in Dublin. She has had an amazing time and travelled to so many interesting places. Wish I was young again. We had a great chat.
Some photos of the day below. Tomorrow morning I am off to Australia – Perth.
