Singapore in a Nutshell

The Best of Singapore:
  1. Fullerton Buffet: anything from King crab, indian cury to Steak and potatos...oh yea, and free flowing wine!!
  2. Night Safari at the Singapore zoo: Being scared sh!tless from bats swooping past your head but laughing hysterically after Adam gets Bat 'Juice' in his mouth!
  3. Chinatown during Chinese New year
  4. Fulfilling Ice cream cravings: nothing like Cookies and Cream at 7 in the morning!
  5. Langkawi, Malaysia: gorgeous resort island in Northern Malaysia
  6. Watching a moped park job being done on SAND by an inexperienced moped driver wearing a helmet too small for his noggin...aka AT!
  7. Full body massage, black rice scrub and an aroma bath to finish it off...pure bliss!
  8. Being asked by a Gr. 5 student if I've ever been ripped off by Mr. Turner!
  9. Dining: Brazilian, Singapore Chilli crab, Hawkers, Thai....it's all about the food!
  10. Holding claim on Adam at 4 floors- Dance clubs filled with ladyboys and such...
  11. Finding out Luke and Dalia are expecting in Aug....Congrats!
  12. Quality times with an incredible host!




The Worst of Singapore:
  1. Sweating constantly 24/7
  2. Cockroaches, geckos and any other creepy crawlers
  3. Staying the first night in Langkawi at a rundown hostel...bugs, webs, springs shooting out of the mattress and don't get me started with the washroom...ahahaa!
  4. Maintaining a status of a 'mail order bride'...only by my own family...thanks guys!
  5. Having to leave...

In my defense, I am an experienced moped driver (now have driven in Greece and Malaysia). In both cases, I had bad experiences because of May - she forced me to drive through sand and then laughed hysterically at me because I couldn't keep balance.

Although, she does have one point right - the helmet was waaaaayyyy to small.

Great times and I don't have too many cockroaches - only one in the last month that I've seen..
