The City

Singapore is a city Bonnie and I could happily call home.  Some find it's strict laws against such innocent activities as chewing gum and urinating in elevators a little Draconian -- but frankly, they didn't cramp our style too much.  A multicultural, clean, centrally located city in the tropics with lush vegetation and great food is not hard to take.  Once upon a time, there was the risk that you'd be fined for forgetting to flush the toilet, but now the toilets flush themselves -- and you can always run to neighbouring Indonesia or Malaysia if you get the mad urge to pee in an elevator.
