Day 2 Liberty Leave in Singapore
Our whole group visited a local ward in the city for church. As always, it was very rewarding to meet members of the church in different countries. It was Fast Sunday and I loved it!
It must be said that Singapore is as clean and beautiful as everyone says it is.

After church, six of us split off to get lunch and we asked directions from a man on the street who not only took us to a place to get lunch, but ordered us local food and paid for it! We ate carrot cake, which is a traditional Singapore dish that has no carrots in it, neither is it a cake. It is actually something like egg-foo-yung with lots of radishes. We also ate a kind of spicy spinach-like leaf dish, a peanut satay, and coconut milk to drink.

In the middle of Singapore there is a jungle canopy hike with loads of monkeys. (a side note to all of you that thought that old world monkeys don’t have prehensile tails and therefore can’t use them to swing from trees, Wrong! I watched these monkeys use their tails to swing around. Either I remember that wrong from school or I just witness evolution in action. You decide. I also saw an ant that was over an inch long. Huuuuge! (Kendal, would you ask Owen about this one as he is the ant expert.) And then we went shopping in China town.
