F What?
Monday, September 29th, 2008Oh sorry, that’s F1. As in Formula One. Formula One racing. Fast cars. Vroom vroom and all that jazz. Last night was Singapore’s first ever venture into the fabulous world of F1, and it was also F1’s first ever night race, so it was a big deal. Singapore used this race to “put itself on […]

Not so much
Friday, September 26th, 2008I tried to go see the Chinese Gardens yesterday. Operative word being tried. I got in a taxi, made it down there and everything, but apparently I didn’t do my research well enough. At the Chinese Garden, the lantern festival is just winding down, so what is normally free admittance was going to be not […]

Photos from Cambodia & our love for bandanas
Saturday, September 20th, 2008Hi all! I know Jeni probably can’t believe her eyes, but I’ve actually posted the photos from our trip to Cambodia! 🙂 Because we took 400 or so photos, I only uploaded some of the better ones or the ones that helped show the chronology or the story of our trip. Plus, I’m sure you’d […]
On being local
Tuesday, September 16th, 2008Been here in Singapore for 75 days now. 75 days and I think I’m local? Well, no. Not really. But I am beginning to feel more at home. And clearly I at least look like I know what I’m doing because I was stopped on the street not once, but twice today and and asked […]
Siem Reap, Cambodia – Day 3
Wednesday, September 10th, 2008Back to our regularly scheduled programming – Siem Reap Day 3. Let’s see, where were we? Oh yeah, we saw so many awesome things on the first two days, but there were so many more to see, and we were going back and forth and back and forth about where to go and when to […]
Lion Dance
Tuesday, September 9th, 2008Okay I know you are all waiting with baited breath to read about our third day in Cambodia, but clearly I am slow and amazingly, some other things have happened since then, so I’m interjecting a little Singapore into our Cambodia time. This weekend we were walking down Orchard Road and we ran into the […]
Siem Reap, Cambodia – Day 2
Thursday, September 4th, 2008So…I figured out that I have a hard time writing the “and then, and then, and then,” posts, so this may not be exactly in chronological order anymore, but that’s not the point really is it? No, the point is to talk about all the cool stuff we saw and did in Cambodia. Yeahzors. As […]
Siem Reap, Cambodia – Day 1
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008Waking up at 5:30 on Thursday morning to catch our flight to Siem Reap must have left us a little loopy, because John and I took this picture on the flight over and we thought it was absolutely hilarious. It made us laugh every time we were scrolling through the 400-something pictures we took while […]
