We have just landed in Singapore. It’s 4:09 in the morning. The trains/buses are not running until 5:30 so we’re hanging out at the airport near immigration. This is a very nice airport to say the least with pleasant waterfalls and music making us feel at peace. A few passengers stroll here and there, but that’s about all. There is free internet so I’m taking advantage.
Our bodies are so screwed up with time that there is pretty much no way to be jet lagged. We’ve slept no more than 3-4 hours at a time for the past 2-3 days now and it appears today will be no different as as soon as we board the train to head up to Tiffany’s friend’s house, we have to be at Zoo by 9AM and we’re scheduled to be there until late tonight for “night safari.” I can honestly say I haven’t done this much walking/running/standing with interval sleeping since my last week at boot camp. Crazy
To fill in a bit more, our full day in Hong Kong/Macau was pretty great although we didn’t get to spend as much time in Hong Kong shopping as we’d have liked. We actually had our “amazing race” moment when we boarded a bus that was sort-of right, but didn’t take us where we needed…so as we jump off that bus, the bus we DO need drives past in the other lane…and what does tiff do? Takes off all hell-glory down the road after the bus ….and yes folks she actually caught it about 2 blocks away, but the driver could not let us on as it wasn’t a stop. :) haha. We did catch the next one and made it back to Hong Kong just in time to catch train to airport. Obviously we didn’t know our flight was delayed 4 hours at that time or we would have stayed in Hong Kong.
Ok - that is all for now. Signing off to try to convince my body another hour of sleep couldn’t hurt.
