Fireworks fireworks

Went for klunch @ MS with lisi & Syn last Sat. I must say that the rooms are all very spacious and nicely decorated. Food was tasty too. Pity is that we only have 3 hours to sing our lungs out. Most likely, I will drop by there another time with another batch of singing kakis as I really like that place and the charges are cheap as well.

After that, we just hang around MS and wait for nightfall to watch fireworks!
Our Initial plan was actually to stand near the One Fullerton to capture the full view but upon seeing the huge crowds of people walking around Esplanade, we change our mind. Dun feel like squeezing in at all.

Instead, we just sat somewhere near MS to watch the fireworks, performed by the France team.

It was a really spectacular show. A full 15 mins of colorful fireworks lighted up across the dark skies. I’m sure some of the cars must have slowed down a while to view it too. After it ended, everywhere seem misty with the smoke around. Tsk tsk..”Contribute” to more air pollution!
Well, it’s a good thing that we were seated near to one of the mrt exits so that we could just quickly make our way to the train station - to avoid squeezing in like mad with hundreds thousand of people together in the rides home.

Anyway, Singapore is really so generous to hold 4 firework performances in celebration of it’s birthday this year. Each year performance just keeps getting longer and better.


And guess what, a really bad news that I just heard from my colleague. In the future for this kind of celebration, if the car drivers continue to create trouble for the traffic police and no further improvement in the road traffic , they might just cancel the whole thing and no more fireworks to view next time!! So saddening~ Aahhhh…PpPPLLLSsSsss dun let this happened!!
