Done and Dusted

All good things come to an end and so it is for our 2023 European holiday.

On our last day here in Singapore the morning was used to pack the suitcases for the last time and thankfully they were big enough and the total weight was under the generous allowance given us by Singapore Airlines.

Late morning we took the metro to visit Haw Par Villa a unique park in south west Singapore and which contains over 1000 statues depicting scenes from Chinese mythology and folklore.



The park was built many year ago by Aw Boon Haw, the person who invented Tiger Balm - he built a villa for his brother Aw Boon Par in around the 1930-40s hence the name.

After an hour or so there we returned to the city and spent the remainder of the afternoon walking through a couple of malls.

An early meal, followed by a quick (he drove at pace) taxi to the airport allowed us to get rid of the suitcases and as I write this last post we are spending our last hour or two before boarding in the lounge.

We are done, it is done.
