February 15 -- Part One, National Botanical Garden

We began the day early at 7am, going to breakfast inside the hotel. It was a great, international breakfast buffet, with items to enjoy from all parts of the world. Fortunately, the tour bus was not leaving until 9am, so we had time to return to the room and lay down for an hour, before meeting the tour group -- about 60 people strong from all parts of the U.S.

The first place we went to was Singapore's National Botanical Garden, and we specifically spent time visiting the National Orchid Garden. I don't need to say a lot about the tour. I will let the pictures speak for themselves.
