We recently visiting Singapore for a few days on the way to our 10 day adventure in Vietnam. It was great to seem some friends and to explore the city state of Singapore. The best way I can find to describe Singapore is 'Asia-Light'. It has a lot of Asian influence, however still has all the comforts of Western Culture....they have Wendy's for crying-out-loud.
Probably biggest attraction to Singapore is the Shopping (at least it was for Jess). I believe because the weather is so hot and humid, shopping is a form of entertainment which comes with free air conditioning! While the goods didn't seem too expensive, it was also not overly cheap and had a lot U.S. brands throughout.
One of most unique parts of our trip included a visit to a Fish Spa, where small fish eat the dead skin from your lower legs and feet. Admittedly, I would not have gone without the coercion of Jess and Lee. While I am not likely to go again, I am glad to have had the experience.
Here are our photos from the trip to Singapore. Vietnam photos to follow (eventually).
