An (Unfortunately Vacuous and Description-Void) Ode to Singapore



Never in my life have I visited a large city and thought to myself, “I could actually live in a big city like this!”

That all changed in a 48-hour whirlwind of visa-obtaining and sight-seeing in the beautiful city/country of Singapore. 



Do you know the feeling you get when you see/experience something really incredible and you can’t seem to put into words why you feel the way you feel?  I’m still having that problem with my time in Singapore.  You’d think I’d be able to pull myself together to put out a meaningful blog post, but I just am unable to do that.  I suppose these adjectives come to mind:
CLEAN!

The bay, Marina Bay Sands, and the ArtScience Museum
ACCESSIBLE!

Merlions and tigers and bears...oh my!
FUN!

Lanterns in Chinatown! 

BEAUTIFUL!

Gardens by the Bay
INNOVATIVE!

This bridge is a double helix...and the lights that illuminate it at night say A & T and G & C.
Needless to say, I wanted to stay there forever.

I really wish I could give you a better description…but I honestly can do no better than to word-vomit out a pathetic attempt at a love song for this incredible destination and slap some pictures on this blog.  I cannot wait to go back sometime soon.
