It is hard to imagine that just under a 2 hour flight from Jakarta lies the island city-state of Singapore.
It is a cosmopolitan city which has a multicultural population. Here is the Harbor Area that reminds me of Baltimore or Sydney.
Marina Bay Sands Casino Resort is a distinctive architectural addition to Singapore's skyline. The three slanting 55-story hotel towers are topped by the SkyPark. Although we can not enter the SkyPark - it is a 340 meter long outdoor terrace that features the world's longest infinity pool.
The lotus shaped building to the left of the Marina Bay Sands was designed by the same architect and is the home to the Singapore Art Science Museum.

Day Trip to Jakarta
Gudeg
Gudeg is a traditional Javanese cuisine from Yogyakarta and Central Java, Indonesia. It is made from young unripe jack fruit boiled for several hours with palm sugar, and coconut milk It is commonly served with egg or chicken. Our dish had the hundred year old egg and the chicken. Unripe jackfruit reminds me of sweet potato.

My new best friend
This is Onell- and can you guess he just got these new glasses? When I commented that they looked good he asked, "Do you know why I have them?" Playing along I said, "No, why".
"Because my eyes are broken - like yours!" was his innocent response!
It made my day!
