Foto Friday - Glimpses of Singapore.  From the top:- 1. The view outside my window. The government has built a lot of these affordable high-rise buildings for its citizens in land-scarce Singapore. 2. A busy city street. Note the large amount of trees lining the road. 3. Inside Bugis Junction – one of the many shopping malls. 4. An old street with skyscrapers in the background. 5. The bazaar opposite Bugis Junction – reputed to be the largest. 6. Inside the bazaar. 7. A stall selling Nyonya kueh (bite-size snacks which are very popular here). 8. A fruit stall – in the forefront, the white fruits are peeled rambutans and the yellow fruits are nangka (a type of jackfruit).

Hi Lee. I remember on my one and only visit to Singapore in 1978, I was so impressed with the cleanliness of the city. And what a beautiful city it was --- and still is! I hope it remains as clean as I remember it. Thanks for the great collage. "Life isn't fair, but it beats whatever comes in second." -- Gentleben
