    I was in Singapore in 80’s with the US Navy, and I noticed high rise buildings in the distance, and come to find out that they were communities of apartments with their own grocery stores , movie theaters and businesses. And in Singapore I found a Denny’s. I don’t know if it’s still there, but it was great food after being in the gulf. 😎🍻 safe trip home boys.

    You guys have chosen the worst time to ride to Singapore, the weather has been damn hot in the afternoon even for Singapore standards. Typically Feb to May are the hottest period every year, June to Oct is usually cooler and Nov to Jan are usually the monsoon season, so it rains on most days
