Singapore River & Government Headquarters

Saturday morning came around and it seemed like a perfect time to check out another area of Singapore.  It was also the only day off this week.  I want a little sympathy here.

So I hopped on my favorite mode of transportation the MRT (subway) and went south a couple of stops to Clarke Quay (pronounced kay or key, depending upon who tells you).  There is a river that runs through part of Singapore called, hold it.....The Singapore River.  Adjacent to that area, which is peppered with Government offices of all types, is the nightclub area, another big shopping mall, The Central, some awesome apartment building with gardens growing on the balcony and the Parliament and Courts.
By the way, it rained in the morning, as you'll see, then the sun came out and ruined everything.   By the time I headed back to the hotel I was literally dripping wet from the humidity steaming off the pavement.  My only solace is the Singaporeans complain about the heat more than I do. Apparently the only respite from Singapores weather, is Singapores Malls and office building lobbies.  The A/C bill in this country has got to be a deuzie.
