Absolutely loved Singapore after spending four nights there. Went to Sentosa, the beachy island- this place is great and is so well planned. You have to travel there by monorail or cable car (we went for monorail). It was so fast and easy to get to but you feel like you could be anywhere in the world as the island is so tropical with sandy beaches and palm trees!
We also spent time window shopping in all the many malls. Every time you use the MRT (underground tube) you seem to end up trapped inside yet another shopping centre!
We also happened to be in the centre to see the Liverpool FC press conference. It was so funny to hear the football songs being sung by Asian fans with funny accents!! We saw four players (although we didn't know who they were!) answer questions and talk about the match this weekend. Simon you'll have to help me out and tell me who they are!

We spent our last night in Singapore re-visiting Raffles Hotel and walking by the riverside admiring all the lights and views. We had pina coladas at 'The Penny Black' English style pub on the river before heading back to bed.

The next morning Lucy left for Vietnam and I spent the day cooling off in some more shopping malls before leaving for the airport.

Today I have arrived in a cool and rainy Cairns, North East Australia. This will be my home for the next 6 nights so I hope the weather clears up soon. Im tired after travelling through the night. The flight left Singapore at around 8:30 pm last night and we landed in Darwin at about 2 am. I then slept for a couple of hours in the airport before re-boarding the plane to head for Cairns. I arrived at the hostel at 9am this morning. My hostel- Bohemia Central is good and has a pool and is clean etc. I am however on high spider alert as ive heard many horror stories!!
Im now sat in an internet cafe uploading pictures which seems to be taking ages!
