Sentosa:: pink dolphin lagoon & aquarium

Sentosa is an island off of singapore which has been claimed as one giant resort. It boasts the best beaches, an aquarium, & pink dolphin lagoon among other high end amenities.

This is the sort of picture we saw advertising the pink dolphins....
this is more what they look like at the lagoon

they become more grey with maturity

Singapore:: country, city, clean & crazy

Singapore is a beautiful city gum is illegal and the streets and buildings sparkle. It is also very expensive for asia (and often america).

We started out our adventure at the famous Raffles hotel where we had a Singapore Sling made the same as the very first one at the Long Bar.

It only cost S$ 22 (about $15 us!!!!) each

singapore is an old colonial city and many of the buildings, especially those in Chinatown, are original colonials

how to find me in the singapore metro station




river walk with the famous/notorious esplanade building in the background
on friday & saturday nights they open up part of the metro station for bmx & break dancing





we took a cable car from the resort island sentosa to downtown

amazing (and scary) views from the cable car

singapore has the worlds largest fountain-- as it looks like a giant sprinkler it is not that impressive....in this picture they have it on a horizontal setting where they have lazor light messages & "i love yous"
