Weekend Adventures

So this is our first weekend in Singapore. Friday and Saturday were both spent looking at apartments. We've found some great places in high-rises and big complexes, but the biggest problem is finding a place without construction outside. This place is growing like crazy. Hopefully we'll settle on something soon.

Feriday night we went to a riverside bar and restaraunt area called Clarke Quay (pronounced Key for those of us not familiar with the Queen's English) and had dinner at a great persian restaraunt and then stopped into a great Blues bar called Crazy Elephant.

After Saturday's round of apartment hunting and a quick trip to the gym, we went out and had a special chinese dish for dinner, Xiao Long Bao (Soup buns). This is one of my favorite dishes, and these were awesome. These are very thin (the thinner the better) dumplings filled with pork and soup. You have to be careful the soup doesn't spill everywhere.


Anyway, time to hit the hay. We're off to the beach tomorrow.
