Human Pyramid

I did not go near enough to look at what the person who design this call it.

Human Pyramid

I nickname it human pyramid. Reminds me of a Bible Story that human who tried to climb to the skies and God confused everyone by making them speak different languages.

What languages do you speak?

The bigger wheel (or the elder sister) at Marina Centre is the world's largest.

This little sister, the Cadbury ferris wheel is only 25 metre high and it's located inside a mall! So rain or shine, you can ride in it!

Most probably the most photographed sign in Singapore

Some said that this sign has been here since 1910s. If it's true, that's a long long time ago. I am sure many many of you have taken a photo of this sign too.

Does it mean this might be the most photographed sign in Singapore? haha...

Paris DP meets KL DP in Singapore

This blog is part of an International Group of people who post daily (or almost daily) a photo of the city they are living in. (yes, we wonder why we do it....)

In Singapore, there 3 of us doing it:
Keropokman - http://keropokman.blogspot.com/
Zannnie/Neo - http://www.singaporedailyphoto.com/
Übersee - http://www.uebersee.com.sg/

This Daily Photo thingy was started by Eric of Paris Daily Photo - www.parisdailyphoto.com

Last Saturday morning, it was very very very early morning, I happen to read my email and found out from Michael and Eric are here. They are here in transit to New Zealand and they have a few hours to spare. Would I want to meet up? Sure!

I sms Edwin from Kuala Lumpur Daily Photo because I know he's based in Singapore to perform. No reply... he most probably is sleeping like everyone else. But when he woke up, he called me and we arranged to meet.

Paris Daily Photo meets KL Daily Photo in Singapore

This is Edwin and Eric posing in front of the poster of the show Edwin's performing in. I watched it on Sunday and it was quite good. If you are in Singapore you should catch it. Eric's finger is pointing at the sign that says, "For Adults and Big Children over 16 only". :-)
