Singapore Down Pours

A very sad goodbye was said to the Burnett Clan in Perth as we departed fro Singapore.

On arrival it was humid and sticky coupled with a bad map reader in James and the result is a 5 hungry and tired girls. A very scary concept for James!!! Needless to say we seeked out food in China Town and were much happier.
The next day rained so hard we just had to go shopping where James thought it would be a good idea to spend 1000 english pounds (yes I said 1000) on binoculars and an i-pod! What rain can do to some people is unthinkable!!! The rain also drove the girls to have what sounded like the most painful waxing experience ever.



Day 2 was drier but not much. However we draved the elements and chanced it with a visit to the Night Safari. This was excellent and we were able to see clouded leopards, lions and have fruit bats fly out our heads! We didn't make it home till 1am. What ravers we are!


Sadly Singapore is where James and I waved goodbye to the girls :( They departed fro home sweet home leaving James and I to head for the Raffles Hotel. At first the doorman wouldn't let us into the hotel (I think it was cause James shirt was so loud!) sending us to another bar around the corner which was cheap and nasty. So we hung aorund and slipped in when he wasn't looking! Two singapore Slings later and it was homeward bound on the bus! Oh the Glamour!

Ha ha ha, was it really because of his shirt or is that a joke? Singapore Slings are just far nicer than they should be, eh!
