We are now at Changi Airport, Singapore. We will soon travel to Manila and Guam for the next leg of our journey. Last night we enjoyed the spectacular firework display from our room on the twentieth floor of Asia's tallest hotel. Needless to say, the view was excellent. Thousands turned up for the event in the harbour of Singapore.

In Fremantle we spent our last day in jail, as the town is home to one of the oldest and most notorious priosons in Australia. The tour was impressive and chilling. Impressive because of the sheer size of the prison. And chilling because of the lack of size for inmates in their cells. We were surprised to hear the prison was operated until 1991. After the tour we spent some time in the local coffee bars - at the famous Cappuccino strip, a popular place to spend time in Fremantle.
