Singapore Pix

Here are some photos to give you a feeling of what it was like in the Far East...

First, here are two symbols of Singapore:

the purple orchid



and the "mer-lion."






Next, something like the view out my hotel room window every night...


I watched several of these out my window -- it was the rainy season. My last night I watched a great storm while eating dinner on the open-air balcony of a 24th-story restaurant.




Could be Joss Whedon's 'Verse, hey? Or maybe an Asian Mardi Gras... Chinatown was yummy... and also icky... depends on which booth you go to.


And last but not least...

The koi pond was like a living lava lamp... Most tranquil.
