Little India, Singapore

It's been a life long dream of mine to go to India. However, with the public awareness of rape and crime in the country, I feel it would be unsafe to travel there. So I had to get my India fix at Singapore's Little India.

The street was alive with the scent of flowers, fruit, vegetables and incense. It was a live with the pulse of Bollywood music and the hustling people. It was exhilarating.

We walked down a few streets and ate dinner at a small, local restaurant. The food was delicious. Our second daughter refused to try it and ate a peanut butter sandwich instead. 

Little India has a few Hindi Temples and a Muslim Mosque but the children were tired so we forwent visits to those places.
