Things to See in Singapore

While visiting the Singapore Botanical Garden gift shop last week, we noticed a deck of cards with pictures of Singapore highlights.  We've seen or have been to most of the places in the deck, except the following:

We've seen these desserts at hawker centers, but haven't dabbled yet.

It's just down the street from our condo!

This looks fun.  We'll go before we eat.

We haven't heard of this place, but I'm sure they'll have stingray, satay, and chilli crab.

I wonder if we can luge here.

That pink thing on the lower left is a dragon fruit, and the thing next to it is a one-eared goat(?).

This is at Clarke Quay (pronounced 'key').

Hmmm.  Pandas and crocodiles and otters? Oh my!

Peranakan refers to 15th and 16th century Chinese immigrants from Indonesia and Malaysia who settled in Singapore. The pastries look fruity and coconutty, kind of like Mexican candy.

We've only got five months left to do it all, but we're gonna have fun trying!
