Getting away from the city and into the rainforest is pretty easy to do in Singapore. After applying copious amounts of sun cream and mosquito repellant we headed up to the MacRitchie reservoir. This is in a large area in the middle of the island called the 'Central Catchment Area' and is a really good way to forget you're in the middle of an island that's also a city. My yearning to see monkeys up close and personal was answered and we almost became TOO acquainted when they discovered we had crisps in our bag! The camera squad (Matt and Juliette) were in full force and the sound of snapping shutters resounded through the canopy.
After a
serious amount of sweating through the day, what better food to eat than Chinese Steamboat in the evening? Take one vat of boiling soup, a waitress called Irene to ladle out the chilli and your own weight in food to be cooked right under your noses to really bring on the heat!
