Nature!!

Today we have spent a relaxed morning roaming the streets of Singapore!
We took a bus to a nature area (bit o' rainforest) and saw ...NATURE!  Palm trees, crazy birds who sound like they speak Cantonese and MONKEYS!  MONKEYS!  better yet, MONKEYS HAVING SEX!  It was awesome!  Kind of cute actually!

Last night we went out with Rodolfo's engineering conference buddy Gary who took us to an incredible indian curry restaurant!  The kind where you eat off of a palm tree leaf and the scoop curry out of buckets onto your leaf.  AWESOME! 

So the real big news:

Potties! 
I  have successfully used a floor potty 3 times now!  Without peeing on myself!  T.P. however is to be carried on your person at all times in case of emergency.  For those potentially some day going to Japan...press the little buttons!  it's awesome!  It does everything and more!  At one department store, the seat was even heated!

Singapore is non flogging!  No canes of any kind have been witnessed and to our disapointment, everyone J walks.  The only cop I've seen was eating an ice cream cone at the time and smiled at me!

We are off to Indonesia (Jakarta) tomorrow night.  The plan is to visit China town tonight and Little India here in Singapore and then we will have successfully fulfilled our tourist needs!

Too bad you didn't get your picture taken with the police officer eating the ice cream cone.

It's funny with jobs. Most often the exact thing you do for work is probably not what you want to run home to do at night or on vacatio...
