Cousin Laura and Mom visit Singapore

Hey,

Last weekend my Mom and Cousin Laura arrived in Singapore to visit for a week. I spent the whole weekend touring Singapore with them along with a few nights last week after classes. We spent Friday checking out Clarke Quay and then Saturday we hit up Sentosa Island and the new Marina Bay Sands Resort (which I hadnt toured yet) followed by a little walk around the bay. The resort was really neat, and just as we had been told the water flowed right over the edge of the building from the pool.

It was pretty wild. A pic of us on top the Resort can be found to the right. Sunday they toured my campus and then we did a 5 mile hike through a bunch of parks connected in the city. In addition to these little adventures they toured a Budhist, a Hindu, and a Islam temple along with China town and Little India. They learned a little about the history of Singapore at the Singapore Museum. Overall it was a really fun time and I am glad they could make it. More pics can be found here.

In a hour I am leaving for Thailand and so will post again when we get back on Tuesday. Hope everything is going well in the states.

Until then, later,

Brett
