Errands are fun!

I am pleasantly surprised the errands that used to feel burdensome at home have now turned into mini-adventures (I wonder how long this will last?).  In the past two days, I have been to the grocery store, post office, and the doctor's office.  All of these trips entailed figuring out where to go and what form of transport would be best: bus, taxi, or MRT. Today it took us a good hour to get to the post office that was probably only 10 minutes away if we could have driven there and parked in front.  Instead, we took the MRT, navigated through the mall, successfully crossed the street underground (thanks to Emma), and found the post office after asking only three people!  The kids walked the whole time, didn't complain, and successfully mailed their letters.

There are two different mailboxes:  one labeled for Singapore mailings and one labeled Other Countries.
