Singapore!

After a fifteen hour flight, a run through Hong Kong airport, a suspected loss of the aforementioned guitar and a three hour flight we got here.

Last night we stayed at Klapsons The Boutique Hotel. The hotel is amazing, very design-y. The bathroom actually has a light colour changer for in the shower - so you can switch the colour to any colour of the rainbow.

We got up early this morning, about 6:30AM with the intention of re-setting our internal clocks (Singapore is 15 hours ahead of Vancouver) and combatting jet-lag. Today is a national holiday in Singapore, so many nationals are on vacation. As a result there is not too much work we can do today though we were successful in setting up a few meetings.

After a delicious breakfast at the hotel and some administrative work we headed out into the city - walking through Chinatown, along the river and through a park. It is 30 degrees here today and a bit grey though we've had some periods of sun. As a result our walk felt much longer than it would in Vancouver.



Today we're moving to our home for the next twenty days - the Hotel Bencoolen. More later!
