Greetings From Singapore

We landed in Singapore just after 1AM last night. Singapore is a tropical country so we've packed up the heavier clothes we were using in Japan and brought out the shorts and light clothing.
Singapore is an interesting contrast to Japan. Where Japan is a mix of the utilitarian steal and concrete where every inch is used for a specific purpose, Singapore has a more organic and free flowing feel, where streets have a lot of aesthetic touches.


We've visited some fantastic gardens today. The botanical and national orchard garden are top notch. Check out the photo slide show. However, being a tropical country the weather can change in an instant, and today was no exception.


We also had a chance to visit one of the Electronics malls. That's 8 floors of Electronics and computers goods.
