Transit

  Singapore, Singapore
Tuesday, May 29, 2007

Flight connections meant a long layover in Singapore on my way to Bangkok.  Flight from Perth had left just after 1am and arrived around 6am but my flight out didn't leave until a bit after 5pm that afternoon.  So, despite an almost twelve hour layover and being very very tired due to the previous flight and being unable to sleep much on the plane, this was probably the most relaxing layover I have ever had. 

I got a few hours sleep at the airport transit hotel, a great back / shoulder massage and checked out some of the features of the airport, like a few Koi Ponds, roof-top garden, extensive free internet and lots of shops.  Singaporians love to shop.  Time flew by (especially with the 5 hour nap) and before I knew it I was on my flight to Bangkok.
