More Singapore

Singapore has been fantastic! I have walked my little feet off and will be glad of the sit down that tomorrow's flight will give me!

Yesterday I went to the zoo and night safari. Really good venues in beautiful settings. Sadly this crusty old computer won't let me upload photos, grrr! At the Night Safari I had my feet nibbled by little fish - deliberately! They're called Doctor Fish and they eat the hard skin on your feet, like an interractive pumice stone (I don't know how they know when to stop!). It's supposed to do you good. Don't know if it does them any good - I hope they like sun tan lotion 'cos I forgot that my legs had some on! Oops! Well, I don't suppose they'll get sun burnt then! 

Today I took the train to go to the Science Centre. I specifically wanted to see the Body Worlds exhibition (which I've missed whenever it's been in the UK). It's a crossover between art, medicine and freak show. I especially liked the slice by slice giraffe.

Oh yes, I also went of a bit of a wild goose chase this afternoon. The other day I happened to see seaweed flavour pringles - oh, yes! Did I buy them? No. Can I find them now? No! Grrr. Not sure my poor feet can carry me out to find them again.

So, tomorrow - if I can get up in time I'll go to the Singapore Art Musuem (right next to my hotel (almost)), and hopefully find time for a Singapore Sling in the Raffles Hotel - assuming they let me in! ;- ) Then it's a short taxi ride to the airport for my flight to NZ (via Sydney) and catch up with my old friend John, in Auckland. Hopefully Auckland will be a bit cooler than it's been here!
