Apache

Ok, this is a few months old photo.

Took this photo just from my window. I am so happy that I managed to zoom them even though I did not have the best camera.

These apache or helicopters had just completed their performance at marina bay for this year National Day Parade. (Geez, I have no idea what they are apache or helicopters?)

Singapore River

What is happening at the river front? Lots of things happening. It is very interesting, we just sit and looked at the many things happening with lots of tourists hiding from the hot sun, wedding couples taking photo, etc. We just sat at the cosy couch at starbuck and sip nice drinks and watched the day go by. What a way to pass our time and destressing ourselves (yipeee).

Singapore River front with lots of building in the background in financial district.

This is the underneath of the bridge. It is so shady and make a good home for homeless (can shelter from the sun and rain). But not sure if it can protect the homeless from being caught by the police.

Bum boat ride to view Singapore River and its surroundings.

Tourists taking shelter underneath the bridge from the hot sun of Singapore (poor tourists). Well we are only 2 degree north of equator, what do you expect (hehehe).
Favourite place to take photo of wedding couple, of course the photographer is taking from another angle. But when the integrated resort is completed, I think it would be a very nice scenery.
Hey this is the venue for this year National Day Celebration. The red seats are where the VIP are sitting. The ferris wheel is still under construction. When completed, one can have a bird eye view of Singapore. I heard that it is fully booked for next year.

Christmas Shopping at Suntec

This is the period of time where most malls are decorated for christmas. Even the trees outside the malls are not spared. Come night, these decorations hung up at the trees would be lighted and it would be a beautiful sight.

Inside Suntec City Shopping Mall, it is beautifully decorated with glittery oranaments.



Toys Toys Toys..............this is the favourite with the kids. Time to shop for christmas presents.

Fountain of Wealth at Suntec City, Singapore

Fountain Of Wealth at Suntec City is the world's largest fountain. The fountain was constructed according to fengshui. The barbed wires around the frame with fairy lights are for christmas decorations that would be lighted up at night.

During certain periods of the day, the fountain is turned off and visitors are invited to walk around a mini fountain at the centre of the fountain's base for good luck.

Woodlands Housing Estate, Singapore

These are some of the many HDB flats where majority of Singaporeans stay in. Most of us own our own flats. They can range from one room, two rooms, three rooms, four rooms, five rooms and executive apartments. The rest stay in private housing, condominiums and landed properties.

The best thing about HDB flats are that they are located closed to schools, supermarkets, clinics, food centres, recreational facilities, MRT stations and bus interchanges.

Took this photo from the Woodlands MRT station, I like the view of the estate and especially those Palm Trees.
