Singapore: A Bus Ride In The Trees
Tags: Travel Tips
Singapore may be a bit squeaky clean for some. There is a rumor that when everybody’s asleep at night, they dust the place. Playing the tourist may also be off-putting to travelers these days, who prefer to spend as much time as possible among the natives, absorbing the true culture and lifestyle of their destination. But there are times when not doing the tourist thing is crazy, and a good example of this is the double-decker sightseeing bus ride around Singapore. The reason? You get to ride among the world’s most beautiful trees.

Krabi BeachKrabi
As frequent travelers, my partner and I were determined not to let the birth of our son-and being five months pregnant-stop us from continuing to enjoy overseas travel. So after a few days research,we booked a tropical Thailand holiday and set of with our 14-month old son, Jayden.
Armed with teething gel, nutritious snacks and toys, we boarded the flight to Phuket and on to Krabi. Miraculously, 10 minutes after take-off our little man was fast asleep! If only we could sleep so soundly.Thailand's province of Krabi is a beautiful destination, and home to extraordinary scenery. Towering limestone cliffs just out of emerald seas, and lush forests burst forth with flora and fauna.

Border Collies at Riverwood DownsAny true dog person will usually tell you two things about their beloved pet: first, they're a lot smarter than most people, and second, fido is not just an animal, but a part of the family unit.
This can lead to a fair bit of angst at holiday time when thbe furry family member is deposited with strangers who place him in a steel cage that looks suspiciously like a doggy jail.
Now don't get me wrong: a lot of kennels are top notch, more akin to a dog resort than a canine Kerobokan: but they just don't suit all dogs or their owners.
The only time I ever left my Dalmatian Claude in a kennel, he stood on his hind legs, pressed his nose against the bars and, as I walked away with my equally distraught four-year old daughter, he uttered the most mournful howl, something he'd never done before.

First thing is to admit that you are now getting older and may not be as young as you once where and admit that you're over backpacking, rough digs and bad food. Why not consider group travel?
