Wooohooo. I went for NDP'07 at Marina Bay.
All thanks to Roderick who gotten the tix. =)))
Was supposed to meet at 1230pm. Then it got pushed to 1pm. Then 1.30pm. Best. But anyhow, we managed to squeeze onto the really packed train with the rest of the people in red. We were on our way to the NDP! Wooohoooo!
We were there at around 3pm, had to go through all those scanners (like the ones at the airport!) and not bring in any liquid that is more than 100ml. Hai. Maciam airplane like that.
But anyhow, here's the view when we were walking towards the stadium/floating platform place. (I don't know what to call it 'cause it's not a stadium. And the place that we were supposed to sit isnt the platform)

And here's the four of us

=)))

Rod and Zhiyong with the tix

The goodie bag
I got green! Erm, not my fav colour. But it wasnt too bad la.

Before the seats were all filled up
It wasnt before long that we settled down and started rummaging through the goodie to look at the goodies. Found this!

Damn chio blue star
And this is how it looks like at night

Uber chio
Instead of giving paper fans, they now give high tech fans you know?

Happy Birthday

Singapore
Cant believe the amount of stuff in the goodie bag. Rather good stuff leh!
Also, there was this caps thing with animal heads.

Woooooo
Then, Rod wanted to feed his Nemo with a cracker

Yum
Zhiyong wanted to feed his lion too.

But I think he only succeeded in poking it into his nose instead.
The weather was really nice to us. Though it threatened to rain (dark clouds and all) in the late morning and early afternoon, it soon cleared and gave us a damn beautiful weather with really pretty clouds.

I like fluffy pretty clouds
But.
That meant.... Hot weather. Sunny sun. Sorching sun.
So bad that I had to take out my umbrella. (Damn auntie I know.)

Yi Hsiu, ZhiYong and Rod under the umbrella... Me? Taking pic. =((
Then there was pre parade performances by the FXM or something. The mountain bikers that do stunts.

Damn cool stuff I tell you.
It was taking a damn long time for the parade to start. So we had to entertain ourselves. By taking pics of course.

Me and Rod

ZhiYong and Rod
Oh ya, and I didnt manage to eat lunch. Had to keep myself full with this.

DAMN NICE!!
Go try it man. It may be quite ex. But it's really nice.
After quite some time, the show finally started.

Parachutes!

I wanna learn!
Then, I got bored again.

Why nothing interesting one?

My seat.
Got number sia. Can buy 4D!

Flags flying in the wind. =))
Till the Men in Uniform appeared.

*drools*

Chinook. Cool stuff.

Apache. Somehow they remind me of dragonflies dancing.
And my favourite!

I wonder how long did they have to practise for this man.
And the beautiful bridge

Awww.

The beautiful background that we were looking at

And 5mins later, even more beautiful background

With damn nice water display
Fireworks are all in a video. Upload them on another day.
And the finale.

See the Singapore flag in the water?
One word for this year's NDP. Cool.
We then tried to leave the place in a piece. The crowd's really impossible.
Evidence?

Nah. I give you evidence.
And the dishevelled us.

In one piece. Phew.
And...
My zi pai of the day

=))
"I am PRETTY, accept it."
