Singapore

We have arrived in Singapore after a long flight, including rice! Christina and I spent a bit of time gazing at Australia out the window.Wow Not a rice paddy in sight but very red and huge. We must visit the outback sometime. Unfortunately it was pretty bumpy for quite a bit of the flight but the service from the cabin crew was incredible.
We were met at the airport by Debbie and our first impression of Singapore is heaps of high rice :-) buildings, rain and clean!
We spent a lovely evening with Debbie and Ian at their apartment (no rice)and today we head off to explore the city.
It has been great to have such a lovely place to stay and with ex-pat Kiwis it is making the transition to Asia very pleasant.






Ella has found a new favourite fruit mangosteen - which none of us have heard of before and Christina has just eaten a whole mango for breakfast - heaven!



Mangosteen... yummy!












High Rice Buildings!
