This is the end of my Singapore pictures. We are now home, safe and sound. The flights back were uneventful and seemed to go more quickly than the outbound leg; the only hitch was that our flight from Chicago to Boston was canceled and there wasn't a seat to be had until more than 24 hours later. So, we hopped on a flight to Manchester NH, rented a car and drove home - perfect. It had started to snow hard by the time we took off in Chicago and it snowed here all day yesterday, so I don't know when we would have made it home had we gotten stuck in Chicago.
Henry very much wanted to see the Singapore Flyer, world's largest Ferris wheel, even though it was still shut down due to a power supply problem. In typical Singaporean fashion, at the base there is a beautiful planted tropical garden, complete with a pool of carp you can feed, and of course, a mall with beautiful shops and restaurants. All still open despite the Flyer being off, but somewhat deserted.



The Flyer has giant glass capsules instead of seats. Next time......
