Z & R in Singapore

Hi. We're currently in Singapore ready to head out on the train to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia). Didn't get a sleeping car so another fun night sleeping in a seat. The heat is exhausting and tough to get used to. We use any excuse to duck into airconditioning when we can.
Walked around a lot today. Treated ourselves to a foot massage in Chinatown. Amazing. Ryan bought a tiny (6 gram) remote controlled helicopter in a gigantor electronics mall (probably 100 stores of just electronic equipment). I know that's been the highlight of his day (maybe even the trip so far...although he did enjoy all the big planes at the Hong Kong airport especially the new Airbus A380 at the Singapore airport and the foot massage).
We've been able to sample a lot of Singapore cuisine including Chilli crab (the dish Singapore is famous for). Speaking of famous Singapore attractions, we stopped at the Raffles Hotel yesterday and had a Singapore Sling. Very tasty. Had yummy Indian food for lunch - served on a banana leaf.

We'll check in again later. Hope all are doing well.

Z&R
