the first day being so amazing i wake up in my lovely lovely hosts house to a warm morning welcome and being told we're heading to MacDonald's for breakfast! My hosts were very brave because their daughters Louisa (my host) said her friends who were hosting the other girls lived the other side of Singapore so they so kindly had all 9 girls to stay in their 3 roomed flat in a tower block! it was the best time of my life i have never met such generous people i was truly humbled and fascinated by their Chinese culture and what they taught and explained to us. Louisa's dad was an expert in Fung shui and told me i was born in the year of the snake, all my personal qualities, predicted my future and read my palm, it was amazing how accurate he was.
at 10 o-clock we caught the metro to a water park in downtown east, Pasir Ris, and met up with all the other guys to go swimming. the park was so much fun with slides and waves machines, i took some great photo's with my under water camera.
At 1430 we had lunch and caught a long bus journey into Singapore city to watch the changing of the guard. the guards had full ceremonial dress and a band marched town the street as the squadrons marched in front of the palace gates. the rifle display showed such talent and strength and was a very individual Singaporian style. we then had an hour or so to walk around the shops until returning to HQ for supper.
