Chad and I were talking the other day about how much we need a vacation. I don't mean traveling... which is what I consider most of our holidays - - roaming around, rapidly taking in the sights, exploring, hiking, diving, etc. I mean a sit on a beach and do absolutely nothing for three or four days holiday. Chad mentioned he thought we did just have a holiday... to Singapore.
Well, I wouldn't call the stress of running around an unknown city trying to figure out if you are going to move yourself around the world to live there a holiday. But, we did get a chance to do a little bit of unwinding and it WAS an adult only trip. Made me remember that I did take a few pictures that I thought others might enjoy of the town of Singapore.
In fact, many westerners do stop over in Singapore when traveling in Asia for vacation. It is a hot spot for lots of Asian travelers as it is so modern and westernized... and has great shopping. Since we weren't really viewing it from a tourist perspective, it's difficult to comments on what that vantage point. What I can say is that Singapore is a vibrant, pulsating, modern Asian city. Here are some photos for you to enjoy.
