Liverpool was fun but the grandeur of London beckons. It was heart warming to be met at the train station by DongXing and her two lovely children. After having some delicious freshly made ice cream at Tutti Frutti, we went by the Asian market and Sainsbury to pick up some groceries. I am a food [...]

The plane ride from KLIA (Kuala Lumpur International Airport) to Changi took only 50 minutes. Another 40 minutes on the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) brought us to the city center. The weather continued to be hot [...]
