Trip to Tiger Land

Dave and I went out to near Sentosa today to see Tiger Live, which is a newish feature attraction giving the history and a taste of Tiger Beer. We had our very own tour guide and then got to pour our own beers.






Then we went back to Orchard Road,were drowned in a storm and had to buy(honestly!!) new clothes as we were wet through and very cold as the store air conditioners made us freeze!!
Saw this guy making noodles at the Paragon Plaza food court.

Then a trip to the Hyatt to Mezza9, an expensive but interesting restaurant

Monday....

We also have walked past the National Library a lot!




Today Monday we have spent time around the Funan Plaza looking at electronics and computer gear and I had fun looking at preloved camera gear in what is a photographers haven, the triangle of the Adelphi Plaza the Peninsula Plaza and the Peninsula Hotel all near North Bridge Road. To quote a forum "The Camera Workshop, Camera Exchange, Alan Photo, K-13, Alex Photo and the two shops in Adelphi are all the known second hand camera shops in Singapore."

The guy in a store called Prime Camera Centre had a really good deal for me....

Then a trip in the evening to Little India..

Sojourn 2008 in Singapore..

Dave and I enjoyed a good flight with JetStar and it was good to fly at a civilized time at 6pm on Saturday night. Our hotel,the Carlton is very well located and we have been out and about fairly well. We went to Sim Lim Square on Sunday and a quick trip to Bugis Market and then to Orchard Road.





Lunch was in a fish restaurant with interesting table service...

Spiritual abundance at Casuarina Library!

This morning our library was in good hands when we had 6 Mormon missionaries on our public access computers as well as a Buddhist monk in the library. They all appreciated with good humour the religious coincidence!
