Sigapore sling-"shots"
Hey everyone free internet at this hostel in Thailand has allowed me to finally post some picutres. We are in Chiang Mai---way up north in Thailand and yesterday we did a jungle trek to some hill tribes, rode elephants, and bamboo rafted down a river. I thought the new year water festival was over...but the river was flooded with natives.....all wanting to splash muddy water all over us...they are on holiday and what better way to escape the heat than to head to the water and that is what they did, sadly today I am feeling a little under the weather. Sucks because we have much to figure out and take care of. It turns out that we are not going to be going to Nepal. There is much politcal unrest there and the American government is saying that it is not safe for us to travel there. I am sad..because I was looking forward to being in the foothills of the Himalayas....but what can you do....I don't want to go there and have to keep a low profile and worry every day....so we have decided to stay in Thailand for an extra month. We will retrun to Singapore for a few days so we do overstay our 30 day visa and spend the rest of the month diving and relaxing along the beaches of Thailand. I am excited to go back to Singapore, because I never got to see the pink dolphins! There were a few others things that we didn't get around to doing so we will hit those up too! The arrangements still have to be made, but for now that is the plan. Hope everyone is doing good...

This is the only Hindu temple in Singapore. Singapore, being an old shipping port is the melting pot of different religions. This one is located in their "Chinatown."
