We arrived in Singapore Thursday evening and booked into the YMCA. In the morning a few of us went to Canning Park which is just behind the Y. We hired a cab and the driver was great. He showed us all of the tourist hot spots including the Singapore Merlion and Clark Quay. Saturday was an official city tour and Sunday those of us who like to lounge made our way (via gondola) to Sentosa Island.
On Monday we got to work with a visit to the Institute of Technical Education . We visited the retail class and students entertained us with costumed dance.
