Treetops Hotel with mammoth coy spitting in the pool |
We started classes January 4th.
We're staying in a ritzy hotel meant for executives and their families, it's more for residential/transitional living, so we have two bedrooms, a shared kitchen and two bathrooms in each apartment.
Unfortunately, this fancy pants hotel does not have free general computers (there is a business room, but a whopping $5 Singapore (80 cents to one U.S. $) for 15 minutes). When I consider how third world hostels can offer a shared computer for guests, this irks me. This also prevents me from posting much, so I will be sure to post once I'm home (February 2nd).

So I will post initial pictures to give you an idea of the city-nation and its architectural wonders and diversity.
