R.A.T. Your Rodent Around-the-World Traveler (a.k.a. Raz)

Hi, My name is R.A.T., which stands for Rodent Around-the-World Traveler (I like to think it stands for Rodent Adventure Traveler), but everyone here calls me Raz for short. I would love to share my adventures with you. I left my rat family in early January to seek adventure. Everyone said "head west young rat," so that is what I did. I headed west to San Diego, California where I ran out of land and had to hop on a ship to continue my journey. It turns out that the ship I found was going west around the world--a dream come true! The MV Explorer is home to the famous Semester at Sea study abroad program. My shipmates include 629 college students and about 150 faculty, staff, lifelong learners, and family members. Things are really busy here on the ship and even busier when we are in port. Come follow me vicariously as I take this incredible journey. Yours, R.A.T.

P.S. I had such a great time on the voyage that the adventure continues!!!!

Singapore - Me and a Merlion



Our next stop was Singapore. We visited the Raffles Hotel, but did not splurge for a Singapore Sling.

We made a stop at Ken Yeang's National Library, but could not go inside as it was Chinese New Years. We were able to go under the great atrium.

I found thees pencil benches to play on in the atrium. I'm working on my balance beam routine!

We found this gentleman at the entrance to a shop. He was not very talkative.

These guys are more like my kin,

Another strange Singaporean, They call him a merlion!
