Singapore Lah

I am in Singapore. I arrived a few days back on Wednesday afternoon and have been relaxing in complete comfort.

Well almost complete. It is about 5 degrees warmer than Hong Kong and a hell of a lot more humid. Kinda reminds me of when I first arrived in HK back in August.

Typical westerner all hot, red faced, and greasy. Yuck!

But I am doing ok here in S'pore. I have adjusted to the climate. Furthermore S'pore is experiencing a lot of rain these days. In fact last month there was so much rain, that there was flooding as well as landslides. Land slides! Singapore is an island so it really can't afford to let too much land slide away right?

Anyhow the food is one of the best parts of S'pore. The locals seem preoccupied with finding it, consuming it, and planning for the next meal all at the same time. Can't blame them though as the food at hand is your choice of Indian, Malay, and several varieties of Chinese style cooking as well as some awesome hybrid styles. Delicious!

Here in South East Asia the flavours and life is a lot more raw. Spicy baby!

I'll have some more snaps in the next couple of weeks. I'm also trying to put together a short trip to Malaysia assuming a certain agitant from my past can get his sh*t together and meet me in KL.
Yeah! I am talking about you Z*m! Wah lao! Faster a bit lor!
