Hi All,
I'm "stuck"
in Singapore for the next 3 weeks and figured I'd share some pix with you all. I've been fortunate to travel to these exotic places due to work - I don't think I would have made it here on my own, had it not been for my work. Enjoy. Maybe these will help you conjure up the urge to book a trip here - a trip that starts with a 36 hour flight itinerary.
From my hotel room the morning of arriving - off in the distance you can just see the petrol-refineries and the cranes of the shipping port. In the first pix you can see the Singapore River:
River Cleaning - way to make some extra money if you own a "Cat"
I took a $13 - 30 minute "Bumboat" ride on the Singapore River. First pix is the outside of the boat, 2nd is the inside. Straight inboard diesel (I think) with a tiller steering.
Obligatory "Tourist pix" of the Merlion Park
More to come.
