I Heart Sing - Part Three, Sightseeing

One day I set out walking..  I walked until my hips said "enough!"; and then some.  Here's a little of what I saw:

Rain

More rain

This could take a while..  (I am sheltering under
the awning of a riverside restaurant)

My destination

After the rain

With thanks to the lovely young woman who
removed the "paper on your face".
Note to self:  carry better quality tissues
for sweaty brow mopping

Oh, for knees that could do that!

Getting closer and the weather is improving

Nearly there - the Marina Bay Sands Hotel

Pit Stop

Singapore Arts Science Museum:  I took in the Andy Warhol
exhibition while I was about it - fascinating

I got an impromptu photography lesson from this guy -
I couldn't understand most of what he said, but it must
have worked, 'cos here's what happened next..

In stark contrast to the building, this gorgeous lily pond
surrounds the Arts Science Museum - it's fab

Made it to the top - photo not brilliant but you can see how high up it is

View of Singapore Flyer from the Sky Park,
Marina Bay Sands Hotel

Ditto

Lovely splash of colour

Comments

Sorry people: a number of times I've been told "I'd like to comment, but it wouldn't let me".. 
I think I have now sorted out the settings so it is EASY.  I think.  And I'd love to hear from you :)

I Heart Sing - Part Two, Little India

Having been warned that Little India gets crazily busy on a Sunday, Heather and I decided to set out early to explore, before it got too crowded.  It's not easy to get a taxi early on a Sunday morning as the drivers are taking a break from ferrying home the Saturday night revellers; however it's not impossible. We met up at 7.30am - starting at the Tekka Centre; "part wet market, part food centre and part shopping mall" .  
First stop was for coffee - not as we know it, but nevertheless a strangely compelling brew laced with condensed milk.  We surprised the stall owner by ordering another; and once suitably fired up on sugar and caffeine, went for a wander…

Wonder what they were on?

Dude! Seriously cool..

Hands up who loves their job?

Hands down who doesn't

Everywhere a riot of colour

Lovely coffee maker

I'd be getting that washing in soon

Nice breakfast

Definitely a man happy in his work

Rambutans - still getting the hang of the camera settings,
but pretty anyway

Jackfruit

Ditto earlier photo

Jackfruit & Dragonfruit

Early birds

Feeling crabby

Fishy tails

There's a story to this..  later

Black-skinned chickens

Tails of two fishies

Still pretty quiet

Can't have too many spoons

Or buckets

So much colour

In a couple of hours this will be heaving with people

I'm sure I need something from here

Gorgeous!
