Cambodia Trip - Arrival in Singapore

Well, we just arrived in Singapore after an 18 hr flight from Los Angeles (short layover in Tokyo). All has gone very well - no incidents whatsover. Folk are in various states of adjusting to different time zones - some have slept well, others haven't.

We have a 6-7 hour layover now but will be in Phnom Penh in about 8-9 hours.

We're now looking to find the much-anticipated showers!

UPDATE 3:32 A.M. Singapore time

Josh & I found the showers. Feel much more human now. I changed in to shorts and a light cotton shirt in anticipation of our landing in Cambodia this morning.

Have finished about 80 pgs in "Killing Fields, Living Fields" - a history of the Evangelical Christian Church in Cambodia. Very interesting. Both encouraging and sad.

The airport in Singapore is the nicest I've ever seen (Friends have told me it's one of the nicest in the world). Looks more like the lobby of classy hotel.

Everyone is looking around and taking pictures. I've given up on sleep for the time being and will just wait till I'm tired. I couldn't sleep much on the flights.

I'll try and update in Cambodia. Not much news for now - just put on John Denver's "Leaving on a Jet Plane" and you'll get most of the picture . . . . .

Bye for now

Tim
