My last day in Singapore! This update comes to you from the refurbished Qantas/British Airways lounge at Singapore Airport. Today we caught the MRT to a couple of “suburban” shopping centres, the goal being kid’s clothes and other things for Nicholas. As always, Quek was very accommodating and spent way too much of his time with us!
Today was a very tiring day, as it seems I’ve caught a cold and I really didn’t feel up to more long walks. I’m glad I did it though — there’s a chain of shops in Singapore called Kiddie Palace and they have a lot of kids clothes and toys, and I’ve brought a bunch of shirts and some Thomas the Tank Engine VCDs (which might be interesting as they might be foreign language even though the sales assistant said “English”).
As I’ve already written, I’m really looking forward to getting home but at the same time I’m sorry that the trip is nearly over. It’s been a really difficult trip, and to be honest we have squeezed way too much into too short a time, but each place we stopped had something to offer and I would not like to have missed anything out.
