Travis traveling in Singapore

ప్రచురించబడింది: 16.10.2023

G'day!

We were in Singapore for two more days. Very dear friends of my two older ones gave us their house to live in, even though they were traveling themselves. We were very touched and very grateful. You have a dog who was probably grateful that someone petted him when his big ones weren't there:

I personally met two really big fellows. But I'm not quite sure what they were thinking when they looked at me like that:

Little bear meets bigger bears

My elders and I looked around a bit here in Singapore. The first thing you notice: everything is built really high. No matter whether houses or shopping centers.

High houses
Tall shopping centers with Christmas decorations in front of them

In these shopping centers you can buy a lot of expensive stuff in a lot of stores where the things are only so expensive because certain names are on them. They're called luxury brands. I've read a lot of them, but I can't remember them all. Some sounded really sweet: Gucci, for example. And then there were things like Cartier, Rolex, Boss, Tommy Hilfiger, Yves Saint Laurent and oh, what do I know. One shop had a half-eaten apple on it and everyone wanted to get in there.

Well, in any case we didn't travel around the city in planes, cars or boats - I already know them by now - but in so-called public transport. There are a lot of buses and there is a train system above and below ground. This is called MRT (mass rapid transit).

Everything was really well organized, my older ones could just go into the train stations with their phone or a plastic sign that said Visa on it. Ok, the big guy is saying that it means credit card, not plastic sign.

And everyone here follows the rules:

How to get in/out
Where to stand on the rolling stairs

It was really exciting and I was also allowed to read the map.

In the MRT, that's what the (sub)bahn is called here
Pretty complicated for me

Well, I didn't have to do it all alone. My older ones helped a little.

Our starting point

We also walked around different neighborhoods. There were sometimes small spots on the street where people burned things down. My oldest said it's called incense.

And then there were buildings with crosses and stuff on them again. They are called churches.

My oldest thought it was great that all religions (I didn't understand exactly what that was yet) could naturally have their space next to each other here.

Before we drove back to the house, we had dinner in a very small Thai restaurant.

It's also funny here when you go out to eat: often no one comes to the table to ask what you want. Instead, my older ones hold their phone over a small square symbol (the older one is saying, it's called a QR code), then they type something and a short time later someone brings the food and drink.

Now we have packed everything together again and are heading to the airport soon. It's going to Australia. We'll first take a look at Melbourne and the surrounding area. And my older ones know people there again. We'll meet them too. I'm curious whether they will like me.

Now we're waiting for it to start soon.

When is it going loohoos?
I take good care of the camera

I'll tell you soon about what's going on in Australia.

Until then, best wishes from Travis the Buddy Bear
