OBSERVATIONS

We saw this billboard at Tang's Department store the other night. I had Zac stand in front of the woman and make it look like he was saying this to Brittany, his girlfriend. We thought it was kind of fun...and quite a "dorky" thing to do. I love when my son is a dork with me!

As I walk around Singapore I am amazed at how each building has something to make it be a bit different than the building beside it. Here's an example. This is an apartment building.

This building has decorated the stairway....which is outside the building. I see the stairways being built on the exterior of the building a lot, but this is one of the most decorated ones I've seen yet.

I just thought this building was beautiful. Old, with Chinese lettering, and it sits right beside the building pictured above.

As we were walking along here came a rickshaw. Yep, they are everywhere in the city. This man had a stereo system on his and was "sharing" his music with the world!

We were standing at a corner waiting for the light to change so we could cross the street and I turned around and ta-da, here were these wooden statues. It was just a normal street corner, not advertising anything or any business.

We were walking along and I looked up what seemed to be an alley way and saw this man sitting there. I just thought it was a serene picture in the hub bub of Singapore.

Have I mentioned the rain here...Zac says we've had terrential downpours for the last four days...and he is right. Yesterday we were walking when I saw this vending machine. It's a bit different...take a look....

And an upclose look shows you it is selling....UMBRELLAS!!!!!!!!!!! Gotta say that I've never, ever seen an umbrella vending machine in the U.S.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
