People, People and More People

Did you know it's hot here?! I'm not talking Colorado summer hot, I'm talking constant sweat and sticky grossness everywhere. This whole humidity thing is very overrated. I'm ready for the beach! Thank goodness that happens soon.

Singapore is a pretty interesting city that I've enjoyed wandering around. We went on a Little India walking tour and learned how different cultures came to Singapore and how they all combine and work together. Little India is filled with plenty of gold shops, food stalls, and lots of colors. 
 

For me, no trip would be complete without a little Harry Potter. And I make no exceptions! Lunch was in a tiny cafe filled with Harry Potter fun. While this little restaurant, Platform 1094, did a great job of not copywriting my beloved entertainment they had plenty to make crazy fans feel right at home. From drinks that spark with fire, to wearing my Gryffindor tie while eating, I knew I was among my people. To top it off the food was delicious, and Johnny made a friend! 

 

Next up was a walk around the botanic gardens with hopes of seeing monkeys. Sadly they did not make an appearance, but I have plenty of time left. 

 
The river safari and night safari were great stops. The animals seemed to have space and going through the zoo at night gave us a chance to see tons of interactions between them. Sadly this is where we encountered the worst of the pushy tourists, and I was eager to get away from crowds and move onto a more relaxing spot. And that is where I am at this very moment. Lounging by the ocean with a cool breeze ready for my next country, Thailand!
