Going on a vacation

Blogging have to stop for a while.

I am preparing for a short trip to HCM City.

Hope for good weather there so that I could take lots of photos. :)

Kallang - Driving Lesson

This is the car park outside the Singapore National Stadium. Since the stadium had already closed down, this car park is very quiet and deserted.

The only people I saw using the car park are these learner drivers. Hahaha, it reminded of the days when I was learning how to drive. My instuctor brought me to a cemetery to learn parking..lol. It really scared me but luckily there are other learner drivers in that area too.

And hey, I passed on my first attempt after learning for only twenty over lessons but now I rather take the public transport or be driven than to drive cause there are simply too many cars in the city.

A short video showing the learner drivers.

Leisure Park

Still at Kallang, I remember this shopping mall at Leisure Park. Used to bring my kids here when they were very young. This mall should be at least around 20 years of age. Surprising the mall looked so new or did they renovate the whole place.

The mall is now even easier to access by the new Circle Line Stadium Station. It is located beside the station.

Spotted some costumes of movies characters in the mall.

You can find out more about the mall in their official website.

Skywatch Friday - Singapore Indoor Stadium

This is the Singapore Indoor Stadium, it is located just opposite the new Stadium MRT Station.

The indoor arena is a vibrant entertainment and sports venue capable of hosting major events for up to 13,000 spectators.

This is the meeting place at the Singapore Indoor Stadium where friends get to meet each other. As there were be huge crowds during a huge concert and event, it is easier to meet friends at this point.

You can read more about the Singapore Indoor Stadium from its official website.

Circle Line - Stadium Station

Continuing with my exploration of the new Circle Line (extension of the Mass Rapid Transit Transport Sytem), I arrived at Stadium Station. This is the station where I can go to the Singapore National Stadium which I posted yesterday.

I think the architectural design of this station is the best among all the stations but I have yet to visit other stations of the new circle line extension.

As this station is near the future sports hub, there are pictures of footballers plastered on the glass of the station. Very interesting.

From the top of the station, I can view through the other end of the station. It looked like it is very narrow.

The exit/entrance of the station is very spacious.

The station is very empty when I was there. Normally, there is no reason to go there unless you worked there or there's a concert at the nearby Indoor Stadium. Crowds of thousands will be expected on such occasion.

But once the Sports Hub is built, I think it will be crowded again with people going there to watch football matches and also to exercise there.
