In Singapore

Hello

We were a little sad to leave Vietnam on Saturday and we are finding Singapore quite a contrast. Halong Bay was spectacular. We were on a private boat with six people looking after us (your money goes a very long way in Vietnam). We paddled through limestone caves into lagoons and saw monkeys. It was all a bit surreal.

When we arrived back in Hanoi we had a day and a half to ourselves and visited the Ho Chi Minh museum (even more surreal) and the Vietnamese History Museum, as well as walking the streets of the old quarter and finding little local restaurants to eat in. Shane even got a hair cut from some guy doing them on the side of the road, and it's not too bad for a $3 job.

Since arriving in Singapore, we've visited the Changi museum, the Merlion, Chinatown and we are currently sitting in Little India. We are thinking of heading to the Night Safari tonight.

Thanks for everyone's comments (which we can get again now) - it's good to hear some news from back home. Hard to believe this all comes to an end in a little over two days now.

Look forward to seeing everyone soon.

Love Megan
