Singapore: I miss you.....

Having two all BEEF (not chicken, not mutton, not cauliflower) patties, special sauce, lettuce, pickle and cheese again was divine. Eating a BigMac was like a night out at Mortons or Boi Na Braza back in Cincy. When I flew back to Delhi I stopped at a McD's in the airport, looked at the menu, had a chicken sandwich and shed a single, solitary tear in memory of the BigMac.


Beef, check. Beer, check. And not just any beer, Chimay Blue; my favorite.


I found the Chimay Blue in Chinatown which was odd being that it is a Belgian beer, but not as odd as the retailer selling the Chimay in Chinatown....


Tin Tin is a French comic and I was really confused why a French comic shop, would be selling a Belgian beer, in Chinatown in Singapore. Regardless I was very thankful to find this little gem amongst all the kimonos, lucky waving cats and knockoff cologne.

Another nice beer I "stumbled" upon was any beer after a night of the warehouse move :-) I often would get out of the warehouse and have the LPN still stuck to me and it made an excellent "coozie" for the San Miguel.


Prior to going to SPDC to assist with the facility move I took two days R&R on Sentosa Island in a room with a view. It was an awesome resort with a private deck and jacuzzi on the roof of the suite. Right next to the ocean and plenty close to beef, beer and 7-11 convenience stores (which I would have never in the world guessed I would miss) was a perfect locale for some relaxation.



I was surprised to find lizards MUCH larger than the little Kevin lizards we find here in India.


I was really proud of myself for not getting on Notes for 2 days, but by Monday evening curiousity got the best of me and I cracked!
