Singapore - a great destination!

I don't think I can recollect how many times I have been to Singapore; whether it has been for work or a transit stop, the stops and stays are far too numerous to count.  However, I have never holidayed in the city and never contemplated touring a seven year old girl through it.  

Together, Teagie and I spent a week wheeling through the streets and shops of Singapore and it now fits, as a destination city, into my "will holiday again" category.  We have very good friends living in Singapore so we enjoyed a central location and a built in playmate.  For both of us the highlights were: the Cloud Dome (Gardens by the Bay), the Zoo - day visit and a second night safari, and finishing off with High Tea and Raffles.

As an honourable mention - Mr Micro Maxi, deserves accolades!  One has now discovered how to keep walking through city streets with a kid in tow (or in this case, in push).  Now that the Madam is too old for a stroller we had changed our travel style away from pavement pounding but WOW, a smooth gliding scooter returned me to the walk, with merely a hand on Teagie's back (or under her own power when not on a busy street) we covered some distances!
