Singapore to Joburg

It's always great to spend a week in Singapore. Thanks to our wonderful hosts Alex and Dion once again. This time we decided to get the hang of the MRT and found it to be clean, cool and efficient - would it be anything else in Singapore? Of course, we had to catch up with our friends when we were in town. Those that are staying - Yael and Ori, Alex and Dion, Kim and Stuart, Nikki, Karen. Those that have just arrived -  Claire and Graham. Those that are going soon -Robin, Verne and Roy. Those that are visiting or re-visiting - Stephan, Leigh. And then there were those we missed this time.. It's a very busy hub and whenever we are there I wish I could live there again! Of course, we visited our favourite eating spots - Delhi Restaurant for Indian, Din Tae Fung for Dim Sum, High Tea at Shangri-La, Wine Connection at Robertson Quay (our old stomping ground) and Sunday Brunch at Basilico. The usual jaunts to Little India, Chinatown, Sim Lim and Orchard road for shopping and late nights at Crazy Elephant at Clark Quay also featured. We did some new things too.. Watching Super rugby - Cheetahs vs Sun Wolves at the National Stadium and a Jazz Festival at Marina Bay.
Then we got on a plane in Singapore, slept a few hours and woke up over Africa. Before we new it we were stuck in the morning traffic in Johannesburg; a segue that has become my life.. By that night we had lunched with Mom, met with Dumisa, the tax guy, shopped and pre-cooked for a camping trip and and done the laundry! Then three more days to sort out all the admin, see everyone, do more shopping..
