A friend told me that there is a Museum of Sex there, and you get free souveniers, so that must have been interesting ..

I like Singapore museums, ever since it was upgraded, it looks even more interesting :-) <b>Daphne</b> I like exploring places, so far this year has been quite an experience, learning and discovering new places to go to. Its really due to the internet mostly, reading from blogs of people giving tips on where to go so I feel blessed for that. Not like last year when I dont know the language, dont know the area and was too afraid to do anything :-| <b>Sally</b> I would love to have a hat made of a puffer fish or even a durian? Oooh, can you image how fast the crowd of Italians will run away when I enter a metro with that? Hahahaha! You should go to the museums in Singapore. Honestly since they upgraded a few years ago, there are a lot more activities and displays in there. Its really vibrant. I really recommend it :-) <b>Pokke</b> Then come to Italy again twin brother!!! I dont know much about King Leopold II. I should read up more about him and his influence in Congo. Hartini

I have not much to add but thanks to your april's fool prank I'm still having fear so wanted to leave a message to show that I do read! :) Belgium's king Leopold II once ruled Congo and "thanks" to that (the man is said to have robbed the country) we now do have a great museum overhere with regular exhibitions like the one you visited. I'm always amazed how beautiful these exotic masks are. Esthetical abstraction that I can never ever reach in my own work. Less so the harder I try... amazing and exciting to see in reality. Interesting!

Never seen one like that before :) Share something with u Marina.. I've never visited any museum while in S'pore.. but ever since I came here and Emanuele is a museum goer, I've appreciated the museums we went to.. be it in Italy & in Europe. I learnt a lot more thru the visits to the museums. I would want to visit a museum in S'pore and see if there's much difference from the ones in Europe. The hat made of puffer fish is interesting!!
