The dorm is one large room divided by lockers down the middle. I'm on the right side of these lockers--this is looking towards the door. Through the door you can see the reception desk.

View from my bunk toward the other side of the room (I'm actually on the bottom bunk, but I took this standing on the ladder to the top bunk.)

Lanterns in Chinatown. There's something I really like about the contrast between traditional and modern here.

Chinatown color.

More color.

Paper lanterns.

When Joel and Ting and I parted ways for the day, I was going to walk home... but I got sidetracked. Shocking, I know.

Detour-worthy. Incredible.

You couldn't enter if you were in shorts above the knees or tank tops. I was wearing both. Whoops!! Fortunately, they had coverings for people to borrow--try not to laugh at me. :-)

Tradition.

Right down the street from the Buddhist temple is a Hindu temple. I remember taking a picture of the outside of it last time I was here, but this time I got to go inside. Awesome.

Trippy!!

I spent *waaay* too long taking pictures of this building. :-)

I kept seeing these signs everywhere, complete with large insect. Nice. :-)

My botany knowledge is failing me at the moment, but I believe this is some type of ginger. Correct me if I'm wrong. :-)

Some of the older buildings seem so out of place among the skyscrapers.

So they pull them down to make room for the new... but sometimes the buildings leave their own memories.

So as I was taking this picture of the sunset over Clarke Quay...

...this man walked past, and without stopping, turning, or missing a beat, he said, "Your country has more beautiful scenery." To which I replied, "But I'm enjoying yours right now." Then I turned around and snapped a picture of him as he continued across the bridge.
