I am in Singapore!
I can barely believe it but it is true. Such an adventure getting here. One flight canceled and re booked on a different airline. The food on board. The long, long, long, long, long, long, long flights!
But I arrived safely and on time in Singapore at 25 minutes after midnight early Friday morning here ( Thursday afternoon in the states?).
It is beautiful here. We have done and are doing so much already so this will be a quick post and I will catch up on Monday or Tuesday with pictures as well.
Some observations of note:
1) I am of average height here! Love that.
2) The little "bow" that many people do when asking you questions or giving you answers.
3) Geraldine, the tour guide who approached us on the MRT.
4) Food, food and more food everywhere.
5) The MRT (subway) and how you can get anywhere and everywhere quickly and inexpensively.
6) The cost of food in the grocery stores. You will freak a the cost. If you know about Hamburger Helper in the states you know you can get it for 99 cents on sale. Here $7.80!
7) I am of average height here and tower over many people.
8) Shopping, shopping and more shopping everywhere.
9) Seeing Deb. So exciting so wonderful.
10) ANA airlines tiny itty bitty teeny little seats.
11) Hagen Daz pint ice cream $15.80.
12) Languages and dialects.
13) Skyping with Gloria the night I arrived. What a hoot you were Gloria, Deb and I are still laughing, thank you.
14) I am of average height here.
More to come....................
More later with pics.........so many stories already.
