Lying on a fluffy bed in the middle of Singapore is amazing. I am sure many people would say that this is due to Singapore being an exciting and innovative city but for me, right at this present moment, it is mainly the bed part that is causing my amazement. After 20 hours of travelling over continents, watching 3 films, eating 3 aeroplane meals and trying every possible position you can achieve on a plane seat attempting to get even a bit of sleep, I can honestly say that lying horizontally is one of the finest pleasures in human experience.
The flights were wondefully uneventful, one from Gatwick to Dubai, a 2 hour stop over, hen another from Dubai to Singapore and the hotel we are staying in (my dad, sister and I) is very nice and smack bang in the centre of the city next to an area called Little India.
So nothing particularly intersting with regards to my journey to blog about. However, arriving at Singapore does signify something more than the end of a boarding pass. This is it. I have left the UK and begun my trip. No more packing checklists, no more lying around in jumpers and no more saying goodbye to friends. At least I still have the comfort of being with my family for a few more weeks before the scary stuff starts.
Anyway, now we are desperately trying to stay awake for slightly longer so our sleeping patterns arent too messed up, I think we may even go and have a look around Singapore! Why the hell not!?
