Hippo Tours - Animals on the loose?

First, Happy Mother's Day to all mums viewing this site.
(especially my mummy who also visits)

There's a open roof bus tour in Singapore, and its called the Hippo Tour.




I have yet to ride on this bus thingy. But I have ride on those that tour Paris.

Do you realise that for tourist attraction in cities that you live in, most people have not tried it yet? Sis and I said we going to pretend to be tourist one of these weekend.

For Singapore residents, have you taken this ride before?

Keropok, you're sooooo right!
But I tell you one thing, it's really funny to take a tourist day in your own city, you will enjoy it a lot!... and I do it often! ;)

I suppose it would be fun to take a tourist bus ride in your own city to see what is featured and what isn't. It would also be a good way to find new things for you to photograph.

I have celebrated this day, Mother's Day in my country, with a magazine cover for my wife. I hope you can see it.

So true - you never go on your own.

The Sydney tour buses spend the night at a depot very near my house, and I see them leave in the morning. Sometimes I feel VERY tempted to ask if I can hitch a ride to the city on one!

Really seeing your city in a new way could result, hope it is what you would like it to be if you do pretend! from a mother!

We have an old red London double decker for the tourist, and for the last 18 months, I've been telling myself I'll get on it, but haven't yet. That might be a nice Theme day theme, though I don't know if every place has it...

I will definitely have to try this bus when/if I get to Singapore. My trip to Asia is postponed to July. No sure if I will get to stop in Singapore but I will definitely let you know as soon as I have confirmation.
