Well we have arrived. 21 hours and three countries later we finally are here. We're staying at a hostel in the Little India district, lots of temples and mosques (hindu, buddhist, muslim etc. ) But at every corner there are food vendors and lots of english speaking people. Also, lots of vegetarian food, who knew? We're sure glad it was the first place we've stopped at, makes the buses and subway alot less confusing.
So far we've only touched on Singapore, with only Little india under our belts. In the coming days we're going to hit , Little China and some of the other ethnic districs. We managed to find the 14 story national library in our random trekking through streets in our area.
Although we really are a minority here, it really hasn't felt like we don't fit in. We thought there would be a little more transition between our culture and theirs. The hostel experience is quite interesting, a 30 bed room shared with men and women, showers with stalls and bathrooms shared again, but really its private enough and quiet and clean when your trying to sleep. We hope you'll like these pictures, we're having a

18 armed somethingUmmm we had to hide the camera between swena and I while kev took the pictures in here, then a dude walked by with a video camera so we thought it was probably alright.
TempleThe place was so empty that we didn't know if we should go in, there was a huge shrine at the back with thousands of pictures of dead family members, a lady again told us it was ok to go in
\14th floor Singapore National LibraryThey drive on the left if you really look.....but the library was huge, and very efficient like the rest of singapore. The escalators wouldn't start until you virtually stepped on them.

Hey I was totally shocked that you guys were over there already. For some reason I thought you weren't leaving for another week. Those pictures are great. You guys are going to have an awesome time. Thanks for the update. Life isn't the same over here without you, but we're managing. Later.
wow Kevin, it looks like a great place. Thanks for sharing your neat pictures.
Hey Kev, hey Dust its good to know that y'all arrived safely. From the looks of things y'all got an eye full as soon as you stepped off the plane!! Continue to have fun experiencing the culture and all it has to offer.
Peaceout,
Wray
