Sing-a-ling

So we're back and we have lots of photos to share from our adventures in Asia. We had a great time exploring Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. The Quatchis made some good friends along the way too.

On day one of our trip, we flew Air Canada from YYZ >> HKG >> SIN. It was a long haul - 19 hours - but at least the flights were on time and the connections were easy peasy. We lucked out from YYZ to HKG - we had the whole row of seats to ourselves!

In the morning we explored Little India. There wasn't much action going on. Usually Serangoon Road is bustling with activity.

We then headed to Arab Street to check out the Sultan's Mosque, local merchants, and to have lunch.

The weather was hot and humid, so we spent most of the afternoon in the shopping malls. At night time, we walked all over Marina Square. The night view was fantastic!
 
We ended the night at the Long Bar in the Raffles Hotel. No trip is complete to Singapore without a Singapore Sling! It was probably the most expensive drink I've ever bought, but totally worth it! The Quatchis also enjoyed the live music.

What a great first day in Singapore!

  2. The Singapore Sling was really (I mean really) sweet! Glad we tried it though!
