Singapore, August 7

Got caught in a rain storm ... pouring down on me ... like a warm shower ... it felt good

Check out the fashion book section in Borders and the Kikokuniya bookstore in Takashimaya ... incredible selection of "unobtainable" signed limited selection boxed publications.  At anywhere form $1000 to $1800 one can hardly call these "books" anymore ...

This brings me to the last Orchard Road slogan from this trip ...

... makes you feel good ... doesn't it ... if you're not into shopping ... avoid Orchard Road or keep the CC locked up.

Since it was still raining when I went back to the hotel, I took the MRT (underground) and admired the LED lit art wall at the Wisma Station on Orchard ... color changing patterns because it is beautiful ... this is not about functionality ... it is about art !


I'm writing this from the Changi airport ... leaving today from the new terminal ... beautiful building and well laid out.  Breezing through it was easy.

More shopping ... duty free ... what an excuse ...
