VISITORS OUT...VISITORS IN...

Almost as soon as one set of guests flew off across the ocean, another set arrived, though not quite as planned. Geo and Marylin had a little trouble getting here thanks to a delayed departure and an unplanned over-night stay in Hong Kong. So they arrived, one day late, having found their lost luggage. In a way, it worked out well as it gave them a head start on recovering from the jet-lag.

Since they arrived on a Thursday, I had only a little time to tour them around before completely disappearing into the bowels of the theatre for our intense double-show-day-weekends. They did, however, manage to make it to our regular post-show Thirsty Thursday.

While I did my back-to-back shows on Saturday and Sunday, they took it upon themselves to do as many touristy things as humanly possible (Orchid Garden, Hop-on-hop-off bus, Orchard Road ...), biding their time until seeing the show on Sunday night. Monday was my day to drag them around to some of the places they might not otherwise see...

Chihuly glass at The Ritz Carlton



Full moon over Marina Bay


On Tuesday, they headed off to Australia where they'd have to make another adjustment to temperature since it's 'winter' there. I heard it was only +13 in Melbourne, a significant drop from the +38 or so they experienced here. By now, they should be lost somewhere in The Outback before heading off to Sydney for a few days.


And in other news...

Have Lyall and I started to think alike ....?
