Geo: 1.35221, 103.991

Left Melbourne at 1105 an hour earlier then what we had been told and an air hostess came looking for us, running most of the way to get to the plane, I tripped up twice. Pretty sure it had something to do with the beverages I had at O'Relies! We were at the airport by 6.30pm and still nearly missed the plane.


We arrived at 5.15am, in Singapore and 31c with rain, caught a taxi to the Mecure Roxy Hotel and were picked up by another taxi to meet the tour bus to the Zoo. We saw a lot of Singapore because the Taxi driver could not find the tour bus.


Very impressed with how clean the city is and green, really lovely and the people have been very helpful.



The Zoo was amazing with huge open areas for the animals and the Orang tangs were great to get up close with having our breakfast, will come back when we stop for 7 days the trams around the zoo were not running and we were not fit enough to walk today.


Arrived back at the Airport with a few hours to kill and found one place

Join the cue heaps of us wanting a photo taken and the big one turned his back on me. Mick was not interested in a photo. They had every type of food you could want. We went for a stroll around the Zoo then caught a Taxi back to the airport.
in the whole Airport where we could get a coffee. Found another coffee place when Mick went for a smoke, the Airport was huge!



Finally arrived in Chiang Mai at 5.15pm settled in and went for a walk around the night market then back to our room for an early night
