After a short breakfast stop in Little India, we walked to the ferry port where we knew there was a free hop-on-hop-off bus that tours the island.
We caught the bus past a number of 'tourist sites' in the old colonial district and plan to visit some of them and spend more time at each tomorrow.
The bus dropped us back in Little India where we visited the Ramadan Bizarre. We bought some amazing vegetable sumosas and tried some very strange rotis. A 'batter type liquid' was put in a cup with holes, then poured onto a hot plate in a circular motion...! It made great patterns and tasted wonderful dipped in the curry sauce provided.
In the afternoon heat we rested, or as some might say took a siesta before heading to Chinatown. We found a lively food court selling lovely Chinese fayre. We ate and stayed late to watch an interesting show. The star attraction was an African lady from the audience who performed an incredible African dance routine!
