SINGAPORE SLING
Wow what a place!! We arrived here at about 6pm local time last night and didn't have enough time to assemble our bikes and ride in. Thank goodness, I'm not sure my blood pressure would have coped as when we did ride in, it took us a couple of hours. So we put them in storage and returned the next day. Kim discussed our route with the toilet attendants at the airport and they said that we should just follow the buses as they all head into town. Next thing we were on a motorway in torrential rain! Great fun though, the kids were amazing, and managed to survive the trip. Luckily about 3km from the airport was a 12km cycle pathway that took us almost into the city along the beachfront. When that finished we took to the footpaths, along with the locals, much more sensible ideas as the cars all whizz along. We were the very relieved Thomas's who finally got back to our hotel. We are all loving Singapore, the people are so friendly and everything is sooooo clean. We are chewing through our cash a bit though, so the sooner we leave the better probably. Chinatown and waterfront tomorrow, looking forward to that, then Hit the Road Jack to Malaysia
