Singapore Day 1
11 hours to tokyo. The cafeteria in the airport was horrible. But at least they had a smoking section. Another 7 hours to Singapore and we got there at 1:30 AM on Friday. We left LAX at 12 PM on Wednesday. Time traveling really messes with the mind. After a 3-hour nap freezing I woke to the first peaks of daylight around 6 am. Despite the time change and uncomfortable flights, I feel chipper and excited. The air is clean, the streets are clean. This morning after breakfast we went on a ride on the largest ferris wheel in the world. (check) Then, Jeremy and I went window shopping at Bugis Junction.

I'm LOVING Singapore, all the buildings are different colors, vibrant and alive. The plants and people all seem to be teeming with life. There are some interesting rules, gum chewing is illegal, littering (obviously, and all the cigarettes are covered with these heinous pictures of rotting fleshes. It's raining a bit right now, a hot sticky tropical rain with bits of sun popping out through the clouds. My favorite. Feeling blessed.
