Singapore is better than Korea
After spending a week in nice, sunny, snow/work free Singapore coming back to freezing cold Korea was not fun.
Got to Incheon Airport at 1am on the 24th and then got to wait hours til my flight at 7.15pm. When I finally got to Singapore it was 1am and again got to wait hours before I could check into the hotel and then had the problem of apparently not having a reservation under either my name or Kats. When she arrived the next day we managed to get it sorted then went off for the first of the many shopping trips.
Next 2 days were pretty much the same, have a whole heap of new clothes that I can't wear here because it's too cold and lots more owls then on Thursday we met up with Michael Perry and his girlfriend Evelyn and went to Singapore Zoo. Was highly unimpressed when it started raining. Of course as soon as I bought an umbrella it stopped raining. Was happy that it stopped raining 5 minutes before the elephant rides started. OK, so it was 100 metres up the track and 100 metres back but that's not the point, I got to ride an elephant so was very happy about that. And Kat was even able to get photos of me smiling!
Kat had to leave before me on Friday so wandered round Orchard Rd and did even more shopping and then went to Fort Canning Park for a couple of hrs.
Got back to Gwangju at 1pm yesterday and met up with Kaz for a few hours then went to Billboard for New Years where everyone was shocked to see me since for some reason they all thought I wasn't coming back til tomorrow.
Have done nothing today and am now off to watch the new series about Rome called by the very original name of Rome
