Singapore, it's the country, that is a city, that works like Disneyland, and has the death penalty…with plenty of fines. I stayed with good Sir. Rami, my host from Cairo and he again showed amazing hospitality, this being his second stint as my host. I would say Singapore is really not my cup of tea. It seems to be perfectly designed for the corporate machine inside all of us. The streets are all clean and new, the traffic, Taxis, Metro, and common areas of the city are all new or well polished. The city seems to lack a certain level of character, it just seems too planned. Everything is as it should be…its like watching "The Truman Show", but in real life.
It is very nice and convenient to move around the city, you would have to be blind and with one leg limping on crutches and deaf in one ear to get lost in the city. I will admit the food was great. I had stingray for the first time and I would say it is one of the most impressive cuts of meat ever, it easily escalates itself to the top 3 meats of all time.
So, that was Singapore I narrowly escaped without getting caned even though I did spit, J walked, and eat and drink on transit…F that noise.
I am now in Malaysia, very lovely country that I will have to comeback and explore more of. They have some amazing looking geography. I am waiting to get a good sunset picture…this place provides some amazing ones. There kinda isn't much to do in Kuala Lumpur…lots of shops and buildings to go into…very hot today…man I was sweating like a pig. So, sticking to a good drinking regiment to keep myself entertained and hydrated. My host Shanice and other surfer Ayuna are happy to join in the fun. There was a party at Shanices place over the weekend and so there is lots of left over drinks and food.
OK, So, I got several drinks down and its getting late, so off to bed for this guy.
Keep on Rockin

Mom So Rami lives in Cairo and Singapore? Or is he visiting Singapore at the same time as you? Just glad you have someone to keep you on the straight and narrow! As I remember you liked Disneyland! What is so wrong with a clean city? Are you trying to say that even I could not get lost there? Glad you are still enjoying yourself but the grounds here do need tending. Looks like while you are picking rice I will be picking weeds. I really do love my garden. : ) I love you, Stay safe. Mom
