More about Singapore

I'm throwing in this picture of Borobrudur - outside of Jogyakarta, hope I have the spelling right. We didn't get much in the way of pics posted this time so am doing after the fact but can't always put them in the right spot.

We didn't really note the slogans and sayings this time in Singapore. Went to the National Library, a regional and community library and the Library Supply Center. This shopping obsession here really hits everyone. It seemed every arrangement revolved around when and where the shopping would be.

Hit the Night Zoo last night and had a very brief visit with my friends in Singapore.

The Indonesian group weathered the culture shock quite well really - and we were in a very fancy hotel and the libraries were so beyond anything they imagine to be possible.

We'll get to Banda today and hope to see our friend Sosi who was our translator last time.
