: P From the airport that is.
Did a quick speedtest with results something like this:
Ping: 84
DL: 2.2X
UL: 0.8X
Not even better than my home line but can’t complain it’s free
Oh and for the technophiles, it’s running some kind of opera mish mash. Would post a picture but there’s not USB port… Look for it later I guess
Singapore has to be one of the best countries EVER. Period.
Ok so what if I haven’t been to many other countries…Ok maybe I’ve only been to 3 countries, but the way singapore is run and the atmosphere of it is amazing!
When we (2/3s of my school’s orchestra and I) first stepped out of the airport it was like walking into a sauna…with extra clothes.
The “resort” we stayed in was pretty good, and the food was nice but the indian stuff was too rich for me.
The shopping malls were much larger than the ones in NZ, I really see the ones in NZ before I judge…
We also went to the night safari, the songs of the sea (loved the fire effects) Plus a whole lot of other stuff the I can’t remember now.
We were supposed to play at vivo city twice and suntec city twice, but we couldn’t get a permit (What were we crazy terrorists?) so we played at suntec four times, which was a pain. I was also suprised to find a wiki article on it when I got back.
That reminds me, there was free Wi-Fi pretty much all over the city (really want a portable wi-fi device now!) and mobile services were dirt cheap.
I saw a really kick-ass halo model, and it was $187 I almost bought it, and there was some REALLY nice creative headphones, the Aurvana Live! and the Aurvana X-Fi. These Headphones were one of the only ones which really fit my ears, in fact I almost bought the Live one…
Singapore was a FANTASTIC trip and I’m definatly going to visit there again some other time…with LOTS more cash
, Expect photos and a new post on helljump up within the week!
EDIT:Photos now UP
