The best day in Singapore







Today our friend Desley Hegney, who kindly hosted us while we were in Singapore, showed us a grand tour of the town. First we strolled through the botanical gardens. Then we had lunch on Arab Street and then purchased a beautiful Persian run and a silk Persian wall hanging. Next we headed downtown for some shopping and high tea at the famous Raffles Hotel, home of the original Singapore Sling. We decided to walk off that rather large indulgence of tea, crumpets and a few Slings by taking in a huge Tech Expo at the Convention Centre. (I bought a cool pink roll-up keyboard for my Mac.) We ended the day at dinner in Little India - an amazing and incredibly fun day.
