It was sight seeing within the city of Singapore and Nysa, a graduate in Arts & Mass Communication was our guide for the purpose.
We'd started off with the Botanic Garden and the world of orchids. It was a lot of walk but made in a cool ambience thanks to the thick foliage shielding us from the fierce heat. The serial was follwed by the boat cruise in the Singapore River and with the commentary on the screens, within the confines of the boat, along with Nysa's inputs made it a knowledgeable and pleasant experience. All too soon it was lunch time and then we're off to the Bird Park - a blissful two hour experience with a 'tram safari' followed by a scintillating show! The birds - of various species - have been thoroughly trained, I must say!
And having completed the itinerary for the day, it was back to scouting the markets for momentoes and curios.
A dinner invite made the evening interesting with the opportunity to meet more people and in the process, picked up a few friends.
Tailpiece.
All in all, an interesting visit and quite a few sights! Meanwhile:-
(a) F1 formula races on the Singapore circuit is on and Vettel seems to be in form.
(b) The Malaysian Open tennis matches are on at Kuala Lumpur!
