Singapore, New Captain & Pirates

I didn't do much in Singapore but everyone who I talked to enjoyed themselves. Due to my cough I just went to the shopping center attached to the port and stocked up on gluten free food for shore excursions.

Pic. 1 is a gondola ride that was right above the ship. Pic. 2 is of the skyline as we sailed out.

Our captain left the ship in Singapore. I did not catch the introduction of the new captain but did catch his announcement regarding an increased security presence on deck due to the possibility of pirates. However he assured us that our open deck areas were secure. It appears that we have the sound blasters (pic. 3).

Is that the tram to Sentosa Island?

There is another system that is the tram. It was also in view from the ship but I did not take a picture of it.

Hi Michelle,
Thank you so much for providing such a detailed blog with incredibly beautiful photos (you are a talented photographer). We have been following your blog since we disembarked from the TP on January 14, 2009. Just wondering if Captain Ravera is OK since you mentioned that he left the ship in Singapore?

Hi, thanks for following. The captain was scheduled to get off for his yearly leave. I'm not sure when he is scheduled to get back on but I don't think it is until after I get off in Dover on May 2nd.
