Singapore. En route to Eclipse 2026.

To get to the eclipse in Spain, we originally planned to fly through Dubai.  But 3 days before we were due to hand over our payment, the Iran-US conflict erupted.  So now we are back to flying a less direct route and to break the journey, we are spending a day in Singapore. Kin Mun went visiting, and I went to Jewel (at the airport) so some pics below.

Iconic views of the waterfall. 


 

 But more than just a waterfall.  There is a whole cliff full of greenery and stairs... and photo ops!


In Singapore, food always features:

Discovered white chendol.  But a bit too much coconut for me.

And I love burnt (or caramelised?) cha siew/roast pork.  At the wonton stall, I spotted this about to be thrown away - and asked if I could have it.  The lady double checked that I really wanted it! It was delicious - and some was really caramelised.


Now waiting for our almost midnight flight to Frankfurt, then on to Madrid.
