Days 43-45 – Borneo-Malaysia to Singapore

November 17-19, 2009 - Singapore

Eric and I arrive in Singapore to regroup before heading off on our next adventure. We’re getting quite familiar with Singapore and are enjoying exploring “old” and “new” areas.

On this visit, the newly explored areas include:

- Orchard Road – the shopping metropolis of Singapore which has everything from corner stores & street stalls to Prada & Gucci

- Clark Quay - the entertainment district with tons of restaurants, clubs and bars

- Bugis Junction – the overview of everything Singapore has to offer, including the National Library, cinemas, a large street market and “Macau Pork Buns”, which are delicious.

Singapore is dressed for Christmas with plenty of glitter, Santa Claus’ and streets lined with reindeer. It feels a bit odd to be walking down the street in shorts and a T-shirt, looking at palm trees decorated with Christmas balls.


Eric’s discovered a climbing gym right around the corner from our hostel, so of course we partake in some climbing.
