Singapore

Our last stop before Australia was Singapore, the home of great airlines, delicious chicken rice and good Tiger beer. Our stop was short, which meant that we saw only a few things in the city. Walked around the colonial district and harbour, went to the movies during monsoon rain...

...and then we went to the zoo. It is mind-blowing, a large area and an incredible amount of species that I had never quite realised existed, such as white tigers and all different kinds of monkeys. We could have spent days there wondering around.

However, once we reached a section called "Australian outback" I started to think whether heading to Oz is such a great idea after all. How can one country be so poisonous? And the weirdest part: The most venomous snake in the world Taipan (lives only in Australia of course) is the tiniest thing! And here's another great thing: Apparently, if a snake bites you in Australia, it would be a good idea to kill the snake and bring it with you to the ER (if you make it that far). Yeah, right! I have no idea what is going to happen to us out there in the bush with a campervan, but I would just like to use this moment to wish you all a happy life and have a merry christmas.
