A New Perspective


Well today was an adventure day!

I tackled the subway and bus system which is really easy here. I made it o the bird park and it was amazing. They have done a very good job of it and there were so many beautiful birds. Thats sayin something coming from me as i am NOT a birder. My favorite part was the penguins and the waterfall. I tried to make it to the zoo and night safari but the rain came and somehow i set my watch back an hour which really cut back on time! So i sat at the zoo for an hour then made my way back to the hostel. Its now 8pm and I'm just siting down to eat on a very busy street restaurant. Tonight was dumpling and some veggie thing. I intended to take a picture of my dumplings but i ate them all before i remembered! Hopefully i can catch a dragon dance now cause its the finals happening here. I saw a short one at the bird park and its pretty incredible what they do. I had no idea it was like that. Actually i bailed on the dance...they're just jumping around anyway.

As it turns out there is a lot to do and see in Singapore. Its a wonderful and gorgeous city that takes up its own island. I'm planning on coming back a day early to see what i missed in the first 2 days!

  1. HI Taryn,
    It looks like an amazing city. Too bad about the zoo, but a good idea to return early and see it. Those greens look amazing, we needed some of those in Indo...
    Love Mom please be careful !!!! xoxo
