We have had a GREAT time with Nanny & Grandpa the last few days. We met them at their hotel Sunday morning and walked through the Clarke Quay area a bit and ate brunch at a new place called The Fabulous Baker Boy. Great little restaurant - simple, comfortable and kid friendly. From there we went back to our place, swam, showed them our school and had dinner at our favorite Hawker market. Monday they spent the morning playing with Drew, picked Luke up from school (those everyday things that I know Nanny has missed since she isn't watching the boys anymore) and swam some more. After work, Adam and I took them to one of our favs for dinner, Din Tai Fung. Then we made our way to the Raffles Hotel for a Singapore Sling. This hotel has a lot of neat history to it, one of which it opened in 1887 and the other is that they are the original creators of the famous Singapore Sling drink. My favorite part of the evening was having drinks on top of the Fullerton Bay Hotel. They have a great rooftop bar and the views are spectacular!

| So great to be together again! |

| LOVE the view from here! |

Entrance to the bar - infinity pool with Marina Bay Sands in the background. Not bad.

Today is Deepavali (a Hindu holiday/festival) so we had the day off from school. We spent the morning at Sentosa where Nanny & Grandpa got to try out the luge with the boys and take a ride up the Sky Tower. We enjoyed a lazy afternoon/evening by hanging out at home and ordering from our favorite pizza place as the rain rolled in. Headed back to work tomorrow for the rest of the week, but have left them with enough fun things to see & explore on their own.

| Grandpa grossed us all out by holding this python. The look on his face was priceless when the guy opened the basket and the snake popped out. He held it though. |

Nanny had her first "When in Asia" moment... exercising at a park. This equipment is in parks all over Singapore.

Little India, China Town, Arab Street and the Night Safari are next up on our list! The fun is just beginning :)
