Visitors: Play Shop Dine

Precisely 3 days after returning from an amazing visit with Jenni in Cambodia, I found myself hopping on the MRT in the direction of Changi Airport.  I had one goal in mind.  Get to the airport and pick up Rhonda and Aom.  These two flew in from Chiang Mai to spend a few days with me.

It has been great to be able to do a little bit of traveling around SE Asia again but having friends enter my world in Singapore was just as amazing!  I had fun playing tour guide when time allowed.  There were times where I had to leave them to their own adventures due to school responsibilities.  However, I still feel like I had lots of opportunity to hang out with them.  Their visit will definitely be a highlight of my time here.

They arrived Wednesday night and we basically spent the next few days living up to the Singapore mantra of:

 

I took them on a tour of my campus and residence.

We rode the Singapore Flyer.

 Visited Gardens by the Bay and went through the Cloud Forest.  

We watched the laser show at Marina Bay Sands.

We ventured into Chinatown, Holland Village and Little India.  

There was a trip to the beach at Sentosa and 

some wandering to different points of interest on the island.  

Saturday plans got changed due to a wet, rainy day but we still had fun.

     Had a pizza and movie night.

Introduced Aom to Chinese and Indian cuisine.

Relaxed.  Chatted. Enjoyed each other's company.

Aom temporarily buried Rhonda in the sand.

We became addicted to taking pictures with mirrors.

This really just scratches the surface of our time together but since the memories behind the photos realy won't mean that much to really anyone other than me, I'll end off here.
