Luang Prabang
Dave and Aislinn at the money changer, where they tried to pull a fast trick (twice) to short change us - not with Dave around! And Aislinn dreams of spending her sudden millions...

Langkawi
Aislinn's friend Georgia is terrified of heights; how nice of us to take her up one of the world's steepest cable cars!
Langkawi
How lovely to escape the high rises of Singapore and stretch in some space; here the rice paddies are joined by a scarecrow and indolent water buffalo.
Singapore Grand Prix
The highlight of the Singapore F1 was surely the plethora of live bands scattered around the racing track. We enjoyed Seasick Steve, whose beard and home-made guitars ensured a unique rocking performance; Ziggy Marley, with his amazing voice, dreadlocks to die for and energetic band wowed us in an amazing set overlooking the bay and Robbie Williams, who was the consummate professional, despite the torrential monsoon which erupted minutes before he was due to perform. What a weekend!
Southern Ridges walk
You can just spot Dave in amongst the greenery of the rainforest. We spent a pleasant and hot few hours walking along the Southern Ridges, which included the Henderson Wave bridge and this aerial walkway.
Aislinn's birthday
We celebrated Aislinn's 17th birthday with a breakfast brunch at an American Diner in Dempsey.
Sigrid and Gerd's visit
More cocktails! This time we took advantage of Happy Hour on the 57th floor of the Swissotel, where the views of the city are breathtaking.
Sigrid and Gerd's visit
A visit to Singapore is not complete without the traditional Singapore Sling at the Raffles Hotel.
Sigrid and Gerd's visit
What better way to enjoy the start of our second year in Singapore than to share it with our very good friends, Sigrid and Gerd, freshly arrived from Germany and keen to take in the sights. We began at the Gardens by the Bay, surely Singapore at its best.
