See it All

Met the group at the Marina Hotel and all seems fine. Small groups seem to work out best. We all took an afternoon tour through Singapore. I have a new appreciation for the quick city tour. Although it was to many places I did see, I also saw some that I didn’t. The view from Mt. Faber was spectacular but the highlight was a great Chinese dinner at the Legend located in the old Fort Canning Center, old British army barracks. Our leader K seems mellow and easy going. Interesting past having lived in such places as Burma and Peru.

In a few hours we catch the ferry to Batam where we possibly will meet with the Governor of the province. Always excited to go somewhere I’ve never been! I found a great travel aid today. Crossing the date line makes keeping the time doubly difficult back home. You don’t just not know the time; you are not even sure about the date. This site lets you key in the times of up to 25 cities so you can be up to date. http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/setpersonal.html
