Back to YMCA - tired of walking for numerous hours around the city. Never got further than Orchard road, but its a long one with shopping malls all over the place. And Starbucks :) Had dinner together with an elderly American man, who happened to be in the lobby of YMCA at the same time as I - asked for directions and we ended up chatting and dining at some restaurant across the street (burgers and spareribs :P)
Walked to Little India - an area nearby that consists of shops and diners owned/run by Indians residing in Singapore. Crammed with people, Indian music and the smell of their delicious food - like walking into another country, really.
Well, now its time to give my tired feet some rest - gotta be at the embassy at 9am, so an early start it is.
Surreal to be here. Got out of the subway this morning and had to ask myself - what was the place I'm at? ;-) Very very different from Thailand.
