Ok, the weather here is monotonous. Everyday is the same:
- Morning: Warm, and humid. Bright sunshine.
- Afternoon: Hot, with heavy rain showers, perhaps two or three.
- Evening: Hot and very humid.
This is the weather here every single day, all year long. It’s like ground-hog day. No wonder it’s so green and lush. A couple of days ago I was walking home from work after an intense rain shower. I looked down at a culvert were rain water from the street was pouring out into a gutter. It looked odd.. until I realized that what was sop strange was how clean the water was. It was like drinking water! I’ve seen water that clean in fast moving brooks in New Hampshire, but never from a street culvert! The huge rainfall here (8 feet per year), combined with how well the Singaporeans take care not to trash their city, makes the streets very clean indeed.
Anyways, if you visit here be prepared for walking in an open sauna. Eye glasses will fog up as soon as you exit a bus, or any building in the city. The dense hot air will punch you in chest.
I need a break.
I just booked a flight to Sydney Australia for a week. I depart on the 9th of April after work. A few days on Bondi Beach should help!
