Apparently they like their shoes here in Singapore. Reminds me of a nursery rhyme
Singapore Sling, come on you really want me to drink this
The only two sane people in a sea of chaos
Guilty or not guilty, you be the judge
Now what is he looking at?

This is how you order a fresh round in Singapore
Raffles @ night
They forgot to tell this guy they were painting the rail
Umm, Grilled in the center of you table
Blazing tongs of fury
The girls enjoying some meat
The crystal skull
What the hell is he talking about
Everyone is a model when they get around these things

Come on Honey try the durian

Anyone recognize this look
The problem solver hard at work
The $200 victim
Toys toys toys
Barbara's new friend
Michelle being Michelle AKA Trouble
Aamir rocking the house
Denise, Aamir's lovely wife
Bye for now

OK I know this isn't the best pic but I though the ladies might be able to understand it...
So this is the first rental we got. After driving it for a few days we realized it wasn't sporty enough
So we went for this...You wouldn't believe how many of these things are on the road around here, along with the Maserati's and Ferrari's. These things cost a half mill each over here.
Now onto food. Hmm, so much to chose from, do I want KFC or Yoshimata or
MMMMM....Fish head curry,,,Yeah yeah that's what we want..Yes that is a fish head and if you look close enough you can see the teeth and eye. Nothing is left behind
The aftermath. No nobody ate the eyes, look close and one is still on top, yum yum.
Remember what I was saying about the good dishes? Here all we got was a banana leaf to eat fish head curry off of. What kind of barbaric society are we living in??? Oh yeah one that drives Ferrari's and Maserati's...Hm
It wasn't really my idea (Yeah right, shes not guilty)
Now we are off to the whiskey bar for drinks. That is one solid cube of ice formed into a perfect baseball shape for each individual drink. It was super cool and really good drinks.
And check out those snacks they give you. I could have made a meal out of those alone. They also brought shaved ham and two types of chips it was great.
SMOOTH
Barbara and Gio enjoying their libations. Everything seems normal, but does anybody recall the rule "Brown Booze Bad for Brett"?
This is why
Now for desert.UMMM UM Fried Durian ice cream. Pretty damn good, but it had a taste that kinda lingered,,,,for a couple of days
This stuff stinks so bad they wont even let you take in a cab, on the bus or the MRT. Needless to say Barbara wasn't impressed.

Bye for now

Six hours sleep in our pods and look how rested and refreshed we look.

There is no amount of water that is going to help. Bring on the G&T, a double please
Happy to be in our temporary home. Yes that is a scarf Barbara is wearing. You have to dress warm in these tropical climates.
We ran into a language barrier so this is how Barbara communicates with me
And apparently this is how they spell water.
Barbara's empty water glass
They got this spelling right though.

I've noticed they don't seem to trust the foreigners with the good glass wear so they give us tin cups to drink out of
and only serve us food on sticks. But come on its hot dog wrapped in bacon, does it get any better than that?
Stay tuned for drinks and more interesting food from Singapore.
