Landed at 1530 Vietnamese time after a LONG journey - think it was about 30 hours door-to-door. And this is the door of my lovely hotel Had a couple of beers - tiger seems to be the thing so far - which doesn't help crossing or even walking down the roads. Junctions/zebra crossings/traffic lights seems yet to be invented. My sisters advice was walk slowly and positively- look at them and they'll go round you. They do. A little unnerving though. Quite war...

At Universal Studios theme park. Have got a new favourite roller-coaster! Very very hot and humid here. Having lots of fun before the long journey home.

Had a stroll along the bay. Beautiful buildings.

Enjoyed the singapore sling in raffles hotel and threw peanut shells on the ground. Was a lovely drink. Enjoying Singapore - very smart city.

Arrived a few hours again Melaka - a Dutch port town. Very pretty. Have had a good walk around. Only here one night before moving off to Singapore, which I am excited about.
