Both are terrible and can really take a toll on your touring time.

Thanks to those that warned me to start early and use a taxi instead of trying to walk between places.

I was soaked by 1030 and really had to keep up my fluid intake. Coming back to the hotel for a mid-day pool break was good advice as well.

I learned to use the Skytrain to get across town and then grab a taxi to finish the trip. The a/c on the skytrain was also a welcome relief.

i take the skytrain to places and as soon as i leave it i take a taxi the rest of the way....only way to arrive anyplace not soaking wet....

Sky train and taxis are the way to go. Taxis are so incredibly cheap. Sky train is very efficient if you don't mind climbing stairs.

Note to Self: make sure you always take along a cloth to keep the sweat at bay and some moist towelettes for a quick pick me up!

- and creep into the nearest 7-11 if it all gets too much (the best air con!) You can also buy frozen towelettes at such shops (called 'phaa yen') which can help temporarily.
- bring a foldable chinese paper fan with you and a small water spray bottle for your ears, neck, inner wrists, then fan like crazy!
