Singapore Botanic Gardens & National Orchid Garden

Dan, Anne and I took a nice long walk on Saturday morning in the Singapore Botanic Gardens.  The Gardens which consist of 157 acres - about 1/5 the size of New York's Central Park - are near the center of the city and are open free to the public from 6am to 12 midnight.  Many Singaporean families come to the park on the weekends for picnics and in the early mornings Tai Chi classes are held throughout the park.

Also in the park is the National Orchid Garden with over 60,000 orchids and some 4,000 species.  All in all some very nice scenery for a little exercise.
