London has Big Ben, we have the Flyer.

Hello everyone! How are you doing? =)

Well, two weeks ago it was Mother’s day and we brought our dearest mummy to sit the Flyer. We had great fun!

What I wore: Dress from Korea, 2.55, Tod’s jelly flats.

So what on earth is “The Flyer”? It is this huge Ferris wheel that overlooks Singapore’s main shopping and financial districts. About 20 people are packed into these air-conditioned capsules and are taken for a 30 minutes ride.

We were really lucky as the sky was just clearing up from a heavy down pour. Plus, we got to see dusk falling on the cityscape. It was so pretty and such a treat.

My fearless niece was busy prancing around the cabin and goofing around. She has zero fear for heights.

After a while, she got bored peeping at the other cabin and decided to snap pictures instead.

Except that she doesn’t know how to press the “snap” button and she just basically “viewed” the surroundings through the LCD. Oh well.

But these are the pictures that I took during the 30 minutes ride.

Dusk in Singapore. So amazingly gorgeous.

This is my home. My country. Singapore.

Anyway, this is the newly opened bridge called “The Helix”. It links the city to the newly opened Marina Bay Sands.

See how the lighting has changed over the course of 30 minutes? It was night when we reached the end of our 30 minutes journey.

Well, my parents sure enjoyed the 30 minutes ride. And so did the littlest niece.

She says hi!

Hope you have a great week ahead!
