End of the year sights

The school year has ended and I am back in the USA. It was a great last day of school - bittersweet. My students and their parents lavished me with love and precious gifts. I will spend the summer in Minnesota, with my family, and I will head back to Singapore the end of July. The day after school ended my good friend Cora arrived in Singapore. We spent two weeks touring Singapore. At the end of her time in Singapore, we hopped on a ferry and spent three days in Bintan, Indonesia. 


A look at the hotel. Lush and green.

Part of the pool had a swim-up  bar. There were stools in the water so that one could sit in the water and enjoy a smoothie, sandwich or dessert. 


My feet in the Southern China Sea.



Cora and I on a tour boat.

While in Little India Cora and I stopped at a salon and got Henna tattoos. Henna tattoo is a temporary that is used primarily in India.

Another one of our adventures was the Fish Spa. The fish nibble the dead skin off one's feet, leaving the feet rather smooth.

The nibbling fish felt like flies tickling my skin :)
