We visited Singapore after Cebu, Philippines. What a difference with the opulence. Here is the casino which has three sky scrapers and a boat on top!
Universal Studios in Singapore. The Transformers ride and the rollercoaster with a corkscrew and a cobra roll were simply amazing.
Some photos from our trip in the States earlier in the month.
The Washington Cathedral was closed when I was there last year due to their earthquake. In the centre of the purple circle is some rock from the moon.
Not a bad view from the top!
Total Class: The Empire State Building Lobby.
Behaviour Management 101: Alcatraz.

I was supposed to get my iPhone on Friday and at 3.10 p.m. get an email from Vodafone saying that they have exciting news that my phone will now be delivered Saturday at the earliest – not really exciting given I was told it was Friday.
So Saturday morning the courier goes to the wrong house, so I email Vodafone about how I might get my phone. Their response was interesting whereas their wonderful solution was to make it my problem by giving me the tracking number so I can locate my Iphone and then organise to get it. Here is my response … wonder what they’ll reply with.
Hi Abby

The Cemetery
The Alligator Swamp Tour
Not a bad way to start the year really. This was the sunrise on New Year’s Day at the Gulf of Mexico.
I got to drive this Ferrari around the track, though they limit you to about 200 km/h. This Ferrari takes 3.2 sec to reach a 100 km/h – makes the Aston at 4.7 sec seem a little “sluggish.”
I often get teased about my extensive pop music collection. Just to show I have eclectic taste, here is proof of something slightly heavier (though I wasn’t one of the black t-shirt highly-tattooed brigade).
No experience but I’ll take a look …
Starting to look like a real race car.
Thankfully my mate Brad didn’t really let me touch anything.
Here are some of the famous monuments.
Washington Monument.
Lincoln Memorial.
The Ford Theater where Lincoln was shot.
The Hubble Telescope.
One of the Apollo Crafts.
I went to the Holocaust Museum – Chilling. Here is one of the carriages. “As many as 100 victims were packed into a single car. … Frequently, the trains halted for hours or days at a time on side tracks or in stations along the way.”
The Supreme Court.
