Singapore....

Wow..what a change from Phnom Phen....known as the cleanest city/country in the world!! Also called the "Finest" City.....due to the fact that you are fined for everything.......littering, jay-walking, not flushing the toilet (yes..I am serious) , spitting, drinking and eating on public transport. Gum is not even sold in the country so we were guessing if caught chewing it we could have been fined.

So that is obviously why everywhere you go is so immaculate. Their favorite past-time is shopping, malls everywhere...Orchard Street a famous shooping strip where apparently people come to shop all over the world.

We only had 2 nights and wish we had more, enough time to do the city tour and the 2nd day....visit the famous Singapore Zoo, which was a cool spot. But very hot....about 95 degrees!

Because it is a very small island (270 sq.miles) compared to Irelands (32,000.00 sq miles) and they both have the same population, just over 4 million! Really gives you an idea just how small the country is....so quite easy for the government to control it. They live in tall high rise apartments that are everywhere!! They even control the number of cars that are on the road by auctioning certificates to drive in the city.

We really enjoyed the few days and would definately go back someday:):):)
