Kermit in Asia

A few days after Markus and Conny’s wedding they started their honeymoon and of course I joined them. We spent a few days in Singapore, which really is an amazing city. It was very interesting to see all the different cultures and neighborhoods, the delicious food, the different temples and so many other things.

We were happy to finally start our trip.

I am always amazed that such a huge thing can fly.

While we were waiting, I checked the boarding card.
I got a window seat. Yay!

Markus showed me, how to fill out the forms for
the Singapore visitor visa.

My seat was very spacious and quite comfortable.

Later during the flight, I read an interesting article about
Bangalore in India. Maybe we should go there one day…

The service on board was great and their apple juice very tasty.

The dinner was good too, although they didn’t offer me any flies.

It was late already, so we tried to get some sleep.

A couple of hours later, I woke up. “Aaah, I slept very well!”

The next morning started with a delicious breakfast. Again no flies…

…but we got a yoghurt for dessert.

At that time, we were somewhere over the Indian Ocean.
What a great view!

Then the pilot announced that the flight is delayed for
about one hour. “Oh, noooo!”

Markus and I spent the extra time playing some funny video games.

And then, finally, we arrived in Singapore after a long
13-hour flight. We took the subway to the hotel…

…where I refreshed myself.

It was very hot and sunny outside, so I had to apply some sunscreen.

We checked the guidebook for what we should see first …

…and then I had a look at the subway system to find out
how to get there.

First, we went to Little India.

There were temples everywhere. Amazing!

Markus and I in front of a typical row of houses.

There were a lot of huge and colorful buildings too.

Back at the hotel I checked what we could have for dinner.

We went to one of these large food markets…

…where I had a teriyaki salmon noodle soup. Mmmhh, yummy!

Then we started to explore Chinatown…

…which also has a lot of temples.

Here Markus and I are in front of a typical entrance to a temple.

Then I saw this cool stone dragon. He looked so cute.

The time went by so fast and two days later, we were at the airport again to continue our trip to Bali, one of the beautiful islands of Indonesia.

“Bangkok, Perth, Hanoi, Jakarta… And where is our flight??”

“Ah, there is our gate.”

“Conny, Markus, hurry up, I don’t want to miss our flight!”

Hehe, I love to ride on the escalator!

This was the first part of the trip. We had a great time in Singapore and we are sure that we will come back some day as there is much more to see. Stay tuned to see the second part of our trip, which we spent in Indonesia.
