My final stop was staying with good friends in Singapore. This tiny country is a great hub for exploring South East Asia and is an interesting mix of old and new Asia.
The Marina Bay Sands hotel/complex is like a ship stranded on top of three columns.
The Gardens at the Bay is an interesting mix of horticulture and futuristic structures (I had a drink at the top of one of the towers/tree things).
China town is still an interesting place to visit.

During my visit I had a great time catching up with friends and even was treated to the best Peking duck in Singapore.
So this will be my last post for my trip, which has been truly incredible. Thank you for reading, it has been nice to think that my friends and family have been following my progress. I'll sign off with a selection of my favourite photos from each location (no easy task!). I'm off again to Yokohama and Darwin now, for work this time, but I won't be updating the blog as I'm sure nobody is interested in photos of my laptop screen and hotels/offices.
Lots of crocs in The Northern Territory, Australia
Such an incredible trip - I want to do it all again!
what an incredible trip, Fi!
