Singapore Part 2

Sorry this post is a few days late! Better late than never though!

The last two days in Singapore were not quite as exciting as the first two, due to crummy weather, but we still had a great time. The last post left off on Friday evening, so fittingly I will start this post with Saturday. Saturday was the day we went to the ship. We took our time getting there, and took our time on the ship. We got back to the hotel around 2 and ended up staying in the hotel for the remainder of the day. The rain started around 4 and by the time it let up enough to go out we were already pretty tired. So, no pictures or fun stories from Saturday, but it was a much needed day of relaxation.

On Sunday, we went back up to Little India and Kevin bought some spices and oils that he can't get in the States for some good Asian cooking! He was one happy shopper! We then went back to Chinatown to get some gifts and souvenirs. It was pretty hot out so before we went back to the hotel we stopped to get some drinks. We went back to the hotel around 1 and took a nap while the rain poured down again. The rain had not stopped when we decided to go out and get some dinner. We ran to the bus stop in the rain and hopped on the train, back to Suntec City. We had Thai food for dinner and then watched the light show at the Fountain of Wealth. The show was slightly disappointing, but I am still glad we got to see it. There were definitely some very neat aspects of the fountain that we would not have seen without attending the show. We went back to the hotel around 8:30 and packed our bags. We left the hotel at 4:45am on Monday morning (Sunday at 1pm in Colorado) and arrived home at 5pm on Monday evening (Tuesday at 8am in the morning). We traveled for 27 hours and were more than happy to finally make it home.

Baskets full of stinky durians. I chickened out and did not actually try one while we were there.

Durians smell so bad, that there are signs on the train that specify NO durians!

This is the picture we bought at the Fountain of Wealth. We walked around this ring 3 times, while touching the water with our right hands, and making a wish.

This picture is from the day I was at the Kennedy Space Center, but I just scanned it in. I thought you would enjoy it.

Overall, we had a great trip, but it is wonderful to be home! The next trips planned are at the end of the month. The first trip is with my mom to NYC! The second trip is with Kevin and some of our great friends to Vegas! Stay tuned for picutres from these trips! Again, thanks for checking out the page! It is a blast to share all of this with you!
