Swimming on Top of the World

They aren’t the highest known swimming pools in the world. I believe that distinction — and many other “highest” or “tallest” distinctions — belongs to some skyscrapers in Dubai. But they are the highest ones we can probably ever afford to go to.

  

I am referring to the now famous rooftop swimming pools of Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore.

It was an extraordinary experience for the entire family. I was thrilled by it as much as — or probably even more than — my kids.

And we have my ex-exgirlfriend to thank for insisting to squeeze Marina Bay Sands Hotel into our super tight travel itinerary. It was worth it!
