A MONTH IN SINGAPORE - WHAT FOR?


The Vintage Traveler is holed up in Minnesota for a couple of months with not much exciting to report in the way of travels.  So I will share some of my favorite memories from a recent  trip to Singapore.  The first thing everyone asked was why are you going to Singapore for a whole month?  The answer is because we like to get to know a place and settle in (also my husband likes to work on his laptop and moving around can be a bit stressful.)   I  like to revisit  favorite places and of course you can always find something new and interesting in a  large city like Singapore. My favorite places were Chinatown and Little India. My husbands' favorite place was the world famous library http://www.nlb.gov.sg/- loaded with business books (of course the air conditioning helped).   We stayed in a small apartment at the Metro Y which was perfect for us and with the heat of Singapore the swimming pool was a godsend. In the early mornings I often walked a short mile to the Botanical Gardens and enjoyed the beauty of the gardens and participating in the Tai chi classes.
