Flyer!

Date: 5th September 2008

Not just a usual day but it's my first day of leave for the whole year! YES! Since 2007! *ROAR*

Planned to go ride on the Singapore Flyer with SL and praying it doesn't rain on that day! Considering it has been raining every day last week...

All was well! Bright and sunny! So we made our way down *the lnog way* by walking from Esplanade to the Flyer. For people going in future, there's a free shuttle service from the Bus stop between The Adelphi and St. Andrew's Cathedral every 30 mins. Please use that instead..

Pretty excited but I was only armed with my Ixus 50. Had planned to get my DSLR before that but wouldn't want to risk bringing a better camera and not really knowing how to get the best out of it. Hah!

Note to others: don't bother paying twice the price for express boarding cos you'll get to go onto the cabin first but still share it with others who paid for normal. Unless there's a looooooong queue for normal and you've got the urge to ride it before everyone else. Else, just stick to the queue alright?

Almost everybody went snap-happy once we were on board, including yours truly as well! My album below tells it all~

The ride's just fine. It moves so slowly that you won't realise when you're at the top till they announce "You're now at a height of blah-blah metres..." Ride takes approx 30 mins so you get to enjoy the view around. Too bad my discounted ticket is only available for use from 830am to 6pm. Best time to go would be actually slightly after 6 as the evening sun shouldn't be that distracting anymore. Well at least better than getting cooked at 3pm in there...

Went for Baikohken Ramen after that and YY joined us as well. My no. 4 favourite! but i guess YY din really like his ramen, he ordered the half size one without the char siew... poor carnivore...

Pitstop! Met up with GY and Ivan for a night of fun and games! Pompeii, No thanks and Imaginiff were those we played! LOL. =)

Wish every Friday could be like that~
