Singapore
Singapore is both city and state. It is an island with about 3.5 million. Chinese, Malaysian, and Indian make up the majority of the population. English is widely spoken. Beautiful and very modern infrastructure.
Since we have visited all of the “must see” locations on our first visit to Singapore, we decided to go visit Danny at Tony’s fashions. I had two suits a tux and some shirts made here on our last visit. We both want to buy some more clothes.
We decided to walk the 3.5 miles. It was a nice walk but very warm When we reached Tony’s place in ChinaTown, my shirt was full of sweat. We spent some time here getting measured and choosing fabric. We decided to have some lunch and then take the subway back to the ship, get some rest, hide from the heat and then head back out.
Danny wanted us at 5 pm for a fitting. We went back to Chinatown by subway. The subway now uses apple pay. No purchasing tickets or cards or anything else. Your phone is all you need. Phone to get in, phone on your way out. Easy.
We saw Danny again and then walked to Clarke Quay. It was about 6:30 and the evening was just beginning. This is very popular place in Singapore. Lot’s or restaurants and other happenings. We thought “When in Singapore, why not get Mexican?”.
We sat and enjoyed dinner. The restaurant was right on the Singapore river. Lots of people in this area.
We started a walk back to the metro station and found a shop that sold coffee. Not easy to find in Singapore. I think tea is the preferred drink.
We hopped on the metro, transferred twice and walked back to the ship.
Long, hot day. Bedtime was early.…
