Arrival!

Here are some pictures from the Singapore Airport! My impressions: it is incredibly sleek and modern, and there are trees and vines growing all over the place! This will be a recurring theme: large, concrete, modern paired with tropical, verdant, natural. They are certainly two very different forms of beauty, and it's interesting to see how they go together in Singapore.

It was 5 in the morning Singapore time when we got there, after 21 hours of flying and 30 hours of transit. It was rough, but it wasn't as bad as I had feared it might be.

And here is a picture of our first step outdoors! It was only 8 in the morning and it was already HUMID!!! The heat hasn't been so terrible, but the humidity is pretty dreadful. Still, it's not nearly as bad as everyone had me believe.
