The End of the Year in Singapore

On Boxing Day we flew out of Jakarta to spend 7 days in Sue's favorite city, Singapore. We have been here many times and have fond memories here, because this is the place where both of our kids were born. I have to admit that it is a very nice place to visit. Everything is so well organized and clean and the people are friendly(except for most cab drivers) , helpful and civilized .

It's a great place to visit with small children because of all the cool attractions for them.
When we visit SNG we like to stay in a serviced apartment. Nowadays we need a 2 bedroom apartment and this time we stayed at a place called Tanglin View. The apartment was ok, nothing spectacular but clean and decent enough. The grounds however were fabulous with awesome pools,fountains and playground for kids.

The first three days or so, it rained non stop and it was 'cold' for this part of the world. The day we arrived it was 22C. Can you believe that? Freezing! My wife made sure that our kids were well protected against this vicious cold and they never left the apartment without at least 3 layers of clothing on them....
Despite the rain, there were still plenty of things for us to do in Singapore and fortunately after 3 days the weather cleared up and we had some sunny days as well with more bearable temperatures.

We went to the Night Safari, The Bird park, Snow City, Sentosa Island with Under water world. And of course when you go to Singapore, there is shopping. Sue made sure to make the most of our stay and she had no problems doubling our lugage weight.....
