Borobudur is an amazing Buddhist temple built in the 9th century. This site is well worth a visit. It is located outside Yogyakarta, Java, Indonesia. I have posted more photos and a video from my visit to the Borobudur Buddhist temple site, which is a world heritage site.
Borobudur includes 504 Buddha statues. I didn’t notice the bat in this photo, when I was visiting.
I did notice this lizard.
Banteay Srei temple, Cambodia. The temple is an another amazing temple in the vicinity of Siem Reap, Cambodia. Banteay Srei is fairly small, but I was definitely very glad I took a day trip (1/2 day really) from Siem Reap to here and Kbal Spean.

The Marina Bay Sands opened in Singapore in 2010. The building is certainly an eye-caching one. It has what looks like an ocean liner spanning 3, 55 story high rise building that each have a luxury hotel. The casino was one of 2 opened in Singapore that quickly surpassed Las Vegas to become the second highest grossing gambling area (Macao is first).
Adjacent to the Marina Bay Sands are: a science museum (in the partial sphere in the photo), an eye ferris wheel (like the London Eye) and a huge new botanical complex – the Gardens by the Bay.

This is the view from my hotel room, now (of the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia). My hope is I will be posting much more frequently to this blog in the next month, than I have been in the last 6 months.
See more photos from Malaysia. I have also started a new blog recently: Living in Malaysia.
