Travelling to Singapore

Off on a big jet plane at 9am to arrive at 3pm Singapore time.

Plenty of activities on the plane to keep busy

Gulls falls asleep and mum and dad get a break to read their books.

We arrive and get our first glimpses of a truly multicultural city in a new country.


We stayed in Little India. A gorgeous place with great character.

Our hotel room at Wanderlust was forest-themed and had a steep staircase to a loft where mum and dad slept. the leaves on the roof were made of felt. What a magical home to arrive to.

  1. Looks like a lovely getaway place to stay.

    So, the camera setting details in the frame of the first image - are they the real settings or is it a make-pretty frame? Just curious!
