Camping -- Singapore Style

I am still working on a post about the medical care here in Singapore, but in the mean time. . .


I thought you'd enjoy this picture of the campsites at East Coast Park. Notice the expressway in the background, as well as the high-rise apartment building. IF I were going to camp (which won't be any time soon), I think I'd at least want to camp somewhere where I wasn't listening to the drone of cars all night long. I guess the upside of camping Singapore style is that McDonalds, home of the S$.60 ice cream cone, is only a 3 minute walk from your tent's front door =)

Believe it or not, there are campgrounds similar to this in San Diego! I once camped in one that was right next to Mission Bay, which is between Freeways 5 and 8. We could walk to the 7-11.

It must be a big-city thing!
