Singapore and drinks in Raffles hotel.

boats I walked along the river bank and saw these junkets.

I find Singapore to be very clean and well run. It was certainly the safest place I visited while travelling.

I was born in Oldham in Manchester, so when I saw this sign, I took a picture of it. oldham
