Night markets and night safaris

On our first night in Singapore we headed to Lavender food market following a tip-off from Wallace's dad. There we found lots of interesting things involving fish heads, pig organs and lamb intestines. In the end we played it safe and went for home favourites like Min Chiang Kueh and Bak Chang... No idea either.

Last night we went to the Night Safari at the zoo which was really cool because: 1) They have a tram which takes you round the entire park so you can see all the animals (mostly lions, tigers, elephants and deer... lots of deer) without having to walk, 2) The whole experience lasts about an hour so you have plenty of time to explore the gift shop and take comedy photos of each other wearing animal costumes, and 3) At the end of the night they have some random guys performing fire breathing tricks. This actually verged on self-immolation at various points and between sections of their entirely-made-up-as-they-went-along routine they liked to entertain the crowd by pointing a blowpipe containing a poison arrow dart at people. Fun times.
