Merlion at Sentosa      In November 2019 I took a potential last big trip with my father and godfather to Singapore to visit our family friends.  Though I was pushing for a Marriott property, I was outvoted and we were at the Grande Mercure Roxy on the East Coast Park area which was perfect for running, though the heat made it necessary to run early.  Still, we had a great trip with flights in Business on JAL via Tokyo and an amazing time in Singapore.
