Singapore

Slept pretty good, considering it was the middle of the day to my body.  Up about 7:15, Jen too. We're in the 20 person dorm, so tried to be very quiet.


Showered, then we had breakfast at the hostel (free).


After breakfast, we got directions to the MRT and headed downtown. Downtown Singapore is exactly as I suspected, huge skyscrapers, ultra clean, very modern and super nice. We didn't really have a plan, just walked around the Marine Bay area.


There's a huge hotel complex that looks like it should be in Dubai. It was three massive towers, with a "boat" on top, sporting palm trees and a pool. We tried to go up, but they wanted $20 to go up, and you couldn't even use the pool.


Very humid today.


We headed to Chinatown for lunch and had a beer, then headed to Orchard Road area. Jen had heard about a "4 Floors on Whores" at Orchard Tower and she wanted to check it out. We didn't see much.


We headed back to the hostel around 3:00. So tired. Still jetlagged. Updated journal, then I napped for 2 hours and woke up at 6:00pm, then Jen and me took MRT to Little India to get some Indian food for supper. After supper, went to a pub for a few beers, then took MRT back to hostel.


To bed about 11:00pm.
