How confident I am in the electricians in Singapore...
The back side of the same pole - our Condo on the right in the background.
There are thousands of bikes on the island.Most are not so lucky...
And even less lucky:
and finally, some just make you wonder - and yes it moves daily.
The grounds keeper's supplies at a nearby hawker stand:
Everything is recycled. This is the gardener's area around the corner from our condo.
Nearby his transportation and his supplies:
He is very friendly. He asked me if I lived in the new condo - I was embarrassed to say yes. He said smiled, bowed his head and went back to work.This is the transportation some take if they are lucky enough to ride to work:
The dark circle with the 70 means he can go 70k (around 45mph). Trust me he goes faster and often on two wheels. The 13 means he can carry 13 passengers.
13 men in the back, often on two wheels, doing over the 70k suggested - on the same highways the taxi drivers are on.
Hundreds of these on the island, maybe thousands. They are everywhere.
Sobering walk today, but pleasant. Everyone is friendly.

John is going to love the picture of the cables going all over the place! I know it's difficult being away from everything (and almost everyone) that you love. I think being in a foreign country so far away from home would be fun for a week or so and then I'd be ready to scoot back home.
Maybe you can count the days down to when you're flying out for Jeremy and Cheyenne's wedding? Or does it seem to be too far away?
We love you lots, Sis. I know that it doesn't help right now thinking that this is a temporary situation, because it's just not going to be temporary enough. You'll always have lots of stories to tell when the grandkids grow up though!
Have a great day!
