Some pics from Singapore
Posted: Thu Mar 12, 2015 9:35 am
In 2012 I visited Singapore for two weeks with the family.
It was the most fascinating city/country I have ever visited.
Very nice people, from all over the world. And nevertheless it is a dictatorship, but a "soft one".
Cameras all over the place, no visible police.
Taxi, underground and bus are almost for free.
No bikes (only on an island in the north part).
There where construction equipment all over the city.
It seemed to be a competition in how to place the most possible equipment on the smallest area.
Some pics from that travel:
(by the way, make sure you visit Sim Lim Square in the background of the first image, there are hundreds of shops inside selling high tech gadgets)

I would LOVE to live in this city!
looks a lovely place; someday I may just stop being 'a stick in the mud' and visit one of these places.
