Singapore

---

We have spent the last few days in Singapore which is a fantastic city with a great buzz. Singapore is a complete contrast to Malaysia and Thailand which were laid back and chilled out.

The main task whilst we've been here has been shopping, and boy is this the right place to shop!! The main shopping area is Orchard Road which has more shopping malls than I have ever seen in my life. (That is quite a statement coming from a retail planner!) Each mall is a shopping centre in its own right and there must be about a dozen malls along Orchard Road, each with about 6 floors of shops. It's shopping heaven for me!!! Though goodness knows how all these shops are supported?!

We have also spent our time here checking out the sights from the F1 track, (D is F1 mad for those who didn't know), and generally sight seeing. Singapore is a great city, with some amazing buildings both modern skyscrapers, and historic buildings from the colonial days. It's a really clean city and everything is so well organised - I love it!!

Singapore is trying to place itself firmly on the international circuit, and it's working. There's everything here that you could want, even beaches on Sentosa island. Singapore airport is also amazing, it's the best in the world and it really shows, they have everything that you need... even a butterfly garden should you need one!
