Day 17

     Today was a blasttttt!!! My day started with me sleeping until almost 11. Then I got to Skype with my mom, Hayden, and Jacob! It was the first time Hayden has gotten to talk to me since I have been here, and did I miss his sweet little face!!!! We had fun sending each other pictures and making silly faces at each other as he told me all about his summer, and how he can ride a 2 wheel bike now! So sad to miss out on his little moment with him, but I know he will be soooo excited to show me all the things he can do when I get back.

     Then we went meet Cynthia to do some shopping! :) But before we could meet her, we had to figure out how to get to her! lol Me, Bliss, and Jenn got a little lost trying to get to the train station. After aimlessly wondering around from bus stop to bus stop for nearly an hour, we got on the right bus that would take us to the right station to meet her. We grabbed some lunch, and coffee (Cynthia is such a blessing- she bought us all coffee), and were off on our shopping adventure.

 

 

     We finallllly were able to visit both of Esther Li Dan's shops that she owns, and were they cuttttee!!!!! We each bought some accessories from her shop, and walked around the 3 story shopping center finding other things to buy.

     On our way home, we decided to grab some Subway for dinner. It was amazinggggg having some American fast food with a salad!!!  As I have said before, veggies and next to impossible to get here, and are out of his world expensive at a grocery store! So when I stumbled upon this salad, I couldn't pass it up! Glad I got that craving out of the way too! I am 3 for 3 in the last two days: Had my chocolate milk, pizza, and salad! I would say I'm not doing too shabby!

     On the walk home, we came across some monks walking down the street that told us 'hello'. I have only ever seen them on TV, so seeing some in real life was pretty cool (at least it was to us girls!). Oh the things you see in Singapore!
