Singapore is a magnificent city (and country), it is so clean and organised with a superb public transport system. It is ideal for shopping and is a lot more expensive than Thailand and Malaysia.

We met up with Pauls girlfriend (Livia) who is travelling with us for a month. We also met up with Clement, a local guy (we met him previously in the Perhentian Islands) who took us to some fantastic local food stalls and drove us on a night tour of the city. It was a fantistic way to see Singapore.

We also visited Sentosa Island on the south of Singapore which had some great attractions including the best musical water fountain show in the world (with lasers and projected video onto the wall of water).

There was also a man made beach complex with a view out to see of hundreds of ships, which did look quite bizarre especially as Singapore boasts having the busiest port in the world.

We also visited another butterfly and insect farm on the island, and I fould a friend in the shape of a rather colourful butterfly which decided to land on my hand and stayed with us throughout the tour.

We also met one of the keepers who was handling a deadly scorpion, he proceded to annoy the scorpion so it would get into attack mode and then milked the venom from it and placed the venom on his tongue. He then turned to me and said "now I am more poisonous than scorpion", I realised he was completely mad and decided to leave!
