Off to Singapore

September 16, 2013 By JPMcLean 6 Comments

On Tuesday, the hubs and I are off to Singapore. It’s been planned for months; a delightful perk of being married to a Formula 1 fan. For most of the racing season, he’s content to watch the races from home, but for the past four years, he and a friend have chosen one race each year to attend in person.

Last year, for the first time, the friend’s wife and I joined them for the race in Austin, Texas. Well, she and I didn’t actually “go” to the race, but we had the best time. Sixth Street in Austin on the weekend is like no other. Great live bands, delicious food and fun-loving crowds, not to mention an extraordinary cowboy boot selection.

This year the husbands chose the race in Singapore and I can hardly wait. If you have a “must see, do or taste” suggestion for Singapore, I’d love to hear it.

The timing for this wee vacation is perfect. The last few weeks have been unbelievably busy on the publishing front with Book II barely out of the gate and Book III at the post, believe me,  I’m ready for some R&R.

I’ll take lots of pics and post them here if the computer gods are smiling. Which, given my decided lack of computer prowess, will be required.

Wish me luck. I’ll be back soon. Now, where did I put that credit card…

      What a coincidence – I have “soaking” on my to-do list! Maybe I can research by the pool?
