A day with Dons!

...



Tonya and Esan left in the morning back to Thailand but I got the rest of the day with Dons... and it was a busy day trying to see all of Singapore in a couple of hours... but by visiting the Singapore Flyer and China Town we got to see alot... it was a great day with Dionne but I had to say goodbye to her that night... I felt like I had a my people with me for a weekend and then before I knew it they were gone... I already miss them so much...

Here are some pics of our adventure on the Singapore Flyer... the largest "Ferris wheel" in the world...






They even gave us maps and little head sets so we could learn more about Singapore.

Look at all those boats...

The containers holds up to 20 people....and it takes 30 minutes to go all the way around.

And really the best view to see the city... here is the marina where one of the Casino's is being built.



This picture was taken for my husband.. he loved it...



A good looking golf course near by....

Afterwards we headed to China Town... to do some shopping...

A great day... and one that will be in the memory bank forever....

Day 4 - a chinatown we go... for the second time...

Day 4 was another packed day... we started off the morning with Chris visiting Holland Village and me at church for a MOPS meeting... I picked him up to find him knee deep in souvenirs... so we could head to China Town for lunch and a museum tour. What a great afternoon we had touring the streets, eating good food and learning a little about Chinatown in Singapore. We soon headed home to pick up Pierce (who did not take a nap) to pack and get ready to leave for Thailand that night.

I forgot my camera but thankfully Chris had his iPhone so we could capture the moment with the FAMOUS 'noodle man'... yum yum.

Chris and I did not plan on matching and he wanted to change but all of his clean clothes were already packed for Thailand... I thought it was a nice touch that we matched...

Here we are headed to the airport... no nap but we are all happy to have a plane ride for 1.5 hours... to THAILAND we go.

Did I mention that Pierce did not have a nap so about 10 min. into the ride to the airport he wanted to sit with mama... and he passed out... to bad the ride was over in less than 15 more minutes...

Along the way we got to get some great pictures of the construction in Singapore...here is the new casino that is to open during the 1st quarter of next year...

Have you ever seen so many cranes?

The largest "observation wheel" in the WORLD.

Make sure you come back tomorrow for the first day in Thailand... beautiful is all I got to say.
