Supreme Singapore

<br>Awoken by a cockney<br>accent, I have a chuckle to myslef that those guts went one better<br>than Jamie and Kirsty and he actually kipped in the room all night!!<br>I check the time and it's 7ish!! Switching on the laptop I hed<br>straight to FB and end up chatting to Stu for over an hour which was<br>a treat. What a good catch up, shame we never got that beer in the<br>last four years or so but hey...one day!! I upload my pics and head<br>for a ...

After spending the night at Katie and Jason's we left for the airport and duly arrived in plenty of time to check-in and then have a coffee with Katie before she headed off to work.<br>Had a browse through the Duty Free shop with a view to purchasing some stuff on the way back and then boarded our flight.<br>The flight was excellent - nice lunch (with a couple of reds to wash it down) and then ...

... to say that the Backstreet Boys are one of the main entertainers. Backstreet Boys?! This is a sexy race, I think the promoters need to step it up a bit....bring on some edgy group or something to get ya fired up...not the BB!! More to follow in Sept... We haven't managed to really get into the night scene yet but it just so happens that the night we moved into our place, the Night Festival was going on just outside.

Lots of little stalls all selling belts, bags, clothes etc. We found really nice tablemats which I intially thought were cushion covers with chopsticks!

... showcasing the Chinese New Year, Christmas, Deepavali (Indian Festival of Lights) and Hari Raya Puasa (Muslims' celebration of the end of Ramadan, a month-long fasting). <br> <br>From Imbiah, we hopped into the bus that shuttled us to Dolphin Lagoon in the middle of two fine beaches, Palawan and Tanjong, whose white sands seemed to have been hauled in from somewhere. There, we had fun watching Sentosa's gorgeous pink ...

... I had to go back to Kuala Lumpur to take a flight to Japan, but I was so stupid that I enjoyed sightseeing until the day before in Singapore and took the first bus of the exact day for KL. As a result, the bus was late and I missed my flight. So I bought another ticket for approx. 350 USD in Hat Yai and flew back to Nagoya from Bangkok on the 21st of September. That was my first and last time to miss a flight, but I should never ever do it again.<br>
