First Night in Singapore

We got off the plane in Singapore and as usual, a bit of reverse culture shock, to be in a First World kind of environment. Mom was pretty bowled over by the Fullerton Hotel, where we're staying - a bit on the swank side, in a beautiful building that was originally Singapore's post office. I'd decided a while ago to treat myself and her and stay in a place a bit nicer than usual!


Mom helped herself to the robes and sandals and seemed to adjust to the luxury environment quite quickly.


We walked out for an evening meal along the beautiful waterfront, packed with outdoor restaurants serving amazing food. Singapore's reputation as possibly having the best food in the world is well-deserved.


Now two days of sightseeing and relaxing before the long flight home!
