exhaustion.

Well we made it through our first day in Singapore! We arrived at the airport at 6:00 a.m. and were taken to our apartments at Treetops. The drive was amazing! We got our first look at how stunning Singapore really is! The best part was when the Marina Bay Sands came into view. It's sheer size is stunning. (I would suggest everyone look it up online, although the pictures do not do it justice). We arrived at our apartment, which is beautiful, by the way, and we dismantled just about everything we brought with us. We then headed out to Orchard road, one of Singapore's best known avenues for shopping and entertainment! We then had lunch at Song of India. We felt a little out of place, first because we were the only group in the restaurant, and second because this place was decked out in chandeliers, gold plates, expensive paintings, and elaborate wine glasses. I guess from now on we ask for the cheaper restaurants! Either way it was wonderful for our first day! We then headed back to our apartments before the rain hit. I went to work off some of the water and toxins from traveling! The gym here will suffice but holy crap, it's lacking in some major AC. It is now 6:40 p.m. and it's bedtime. I think we made it pretty far after 35 hours of traveling! Go team, go!
