Stopovers in Singapore and Frankfurt

We stayed in the Transit Hotel in Singapore Airport and were really impressed with it. Evie had a decent sleep in her cot and loved the fact that she was next to a mirror!

We went for a walk in the Airport Terminal before the shift workers arrived and the place was really quiet. Evie had a great run around and we went and had an early breakfast.

Evie had the fun of feeding the Koi fish inside the terminal. They are really big and look like goldfish except I believe they are worth a lot of money and are protected in Singapore.

Then we went to Frankfurt. Evie was excellent on the plane ride in between, she didn't sleep but was kept very busy runnung up and down the aisles! These photos are in Frankfurt Zoo where we spent an entire day. It was a typical city zoo, I think we're really lucky with Orana Park in Christchurch! Evie enjoyed herself, this was my favourite part of the zoo! One of the seals was enormous! Evie loved running around the place and looking at the other children.


This was a play park near our hotel in Frankfurt.

This is Evie in the cathedral square in Frankfurt. The architecture was beautiful but there wasn't much of the old town left unfortunately! Still there were pockets of it around the streets and it was lovely. Evie was a hit with the Japanese tourists and there are many photos of her in Japan now!
