Hallelujah! Good Internet! Joan and I
spent all morning perusing the results of the election. I spent 2
hours on Elections Canada website checking out every province and all
the Montreal ridings. Good work Canadians.
It was 1 PM before we went for a small
walk outside. Singapore is currently a high smog zone due to
Indonesian companies burning the forest down in Sumatra. With over
1000 fires burning the Indonesians are polluting all of southeast
Asia. Both Caroline and Ali walk to work underground to avoid the
smoke.
The Sail where Caroline and Ali live |
It has been 2 years since we were last
in Singapore and the city has changed. My favorite barber is no
more. His alleyway ha been replaced by a construction site. The
lighting on the Sail (Caroline's apartment building) has been
upgraded. They have built a new pedestrian bridge over the river.
October 22 Singapore
Singapore is an island just like
Montreal. Like Montreal there are several smaller islands just
offshore. We visited one today that was undeveloped and mostly
forest and park. We rented bikes to get to the wetlands and then we
walked the boardwalk through the wetlands. The island is famous for
it's lizards but I never found one. I had to settle for pigs
.
