Another gorgeous day in Singapore

Awesome windy, sunny day. We went to the new children's playground at gardens by the bay. Great fun was had by all but it was extremely busy since it was Chinese new year weekend. They've spent a fortune on it and it shows, however quite a few of the attractions were closed as they were already broken. We're planning to go back soon.

I also ordered the baby spinach and it looks like it's in a compostable bag, I'll need to check that one. So good to have fresh, seasonal fruit and veg with none of the plastic.   https://store.homegrown.kiwi/homegrown

Worst of all, it appears that a lot of the particles are small enough to get through the air con, yikes. Oh well, sounds like it's not too dangerous - I'll just have to get used to having itchy eyes. We bought a photo printer today, finally we'll get around to printing some of our wedding photos. Not bad, only a year and a half late! We witnessed what is quite a common event here in Singapore this afternoon. However, I realise that it's not really that usual anywhere else. We were at Funan - The IT Mall and there was a shop-opening event. This consisted, as all do in Singapore, of a drinks party, several talls st...
