made it to singapore just fine! arrived here at roughly 8:45pm local time and guess what the temp was? 29 degrees celcius! at 9pm at night! i couldnt believe it. i forgot how hot and humid it is here! crazy! so ive got the perma-layer of sweat on me as we speak. thank god for a/c
the hostel im staying at is right in the centre of 'little india' and well i havnt been to india but i guess i know now what its like - nothing really crazy. just a bit scary to be walking around alone. people look at you a bit weird but thats to be expected. im glad im only here for a few nights though. im gonna sleep in tomorrow and maybe check out the merlion, orchard road (big shopping district), and i dunno what else. i'll consult my tour book - already the prices are cheaper! i paid $0.60 for a 500ml bottle of water where as back in australia the same thing would cost probabley $2.20 - such a relief!
met a really nice older australian couple on the shuttle to the hostel - they gave me lots of good pointers about traveling through asia. they were both in their 50s and going backpacking in vietnam for 5 weeks i thought that was pretty cool.
well im on a bit of a jet lag here - singapore is 2hours behind australia so im gonna hit the hay
much love!

sleep is always wonderful, with, or without the jetleg. :)
glad to hear you made it, safe and sound. it's really warm here, but more like 26 degrees in the middle of the afternoon, and only 10 degrees at night. how warm was it there during the day if it was 29 at night? thats crazy... keep hydrated!! and with those conditions... you'll be all tanned up in no time.
im so tired, and i have an hour left of work. ugh. seen the doctor today, everything is fantastic. im healthy and looking good, as my doctor put it. lol... anyways i should get some more work done. take care. keep hydrated!!
