Changi Airport in Singapore

PG says: We arrived here around 1:30 AM, fly to Kathmandu in about 3 hours. (it's 6:30 AM.)It's been a really peaceful and interesting night here. It looks like the whole world passes through here - I think Singapore is a major connecting point between Asia and other parts of the world. Security is tight - cops everywhere, they did check our passports but they were pleasant - no hassles. They were checking everyone's passports. The airport has free internet, gardens you can walk through - we saw an orchid garden and a fern garden. Stores are open all night - you can get coffee, beer, meals, clothes, cell phones, etc. all night long. I settled for a cup of tea about an hour ago. Very interesting night. My only complaint is that they keep playing the same CD over and over - it sounds like George WInston, the pianist. I do like his work, but variety is nice. They've changed it recently, thanks. On to Kathmandu!!!
