Garden By The Bay Singapore - Mid Autumn Festival 2018

Was at Garden By The Bay yesterday night to view the Mid Autumn Festival 2018 lanterns. Amazed by the beautiful huge lanterns but thought that this year the exhibits of lanterns were not many. The display will be on till 24th September 2018. Read more from official website.

Bought a pendant with a grain of rice. The rice was skillfully carved with my name. The pendant seems to manify the rice grain so that the name can be read easily. The carving was done on the spot in a matter of less than a minute.

The Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) - The RSAF's Aerial Display at RSAF50@Marina Barrage

Over the weekend, The Republic of Singapore Air Force celebrated its 50th anniversary by holding a massive aerial display at Marina Barrage. A very huge crowd was expected and so best to take the bus to Marina Barrage. As anticipated, the car park were full and traffic jam along the way to Marina Barrage as many wanted to view the aerial display.

We took the bus no. 400 from Shenton Way Bus Terminal.Was my first time at this bus terminal.

There were so many people at the Marina Barrage and the weather was extremely hot. I would like to come again to Marina Barrage but will come at night where the weather is cooler.

Think the aerial display was more than 30 minutes, I did not video all the display, view the video at the bottom of this post. Hubby and me enjoyed the display very much, very impressive.

A heart shaped performed by the fighter planes.

Video of the aerial display, I grew too tired to video all hahaha.

Dinosaur Exhibits at Plaza Singapura

Was shopping at Plaza Singapura and encountered two huge dinosaurs. Hahaha, lucky it was just the exhibits of the dinosaurs skeletons. I think they are just the replicas of the real ones, but they were just as interesting and real huge.

Cannot imagine these dinosaurs used to rule the earth.

It's the school holiday now for Singapore kids so they really attract the kids to the exhibits. The exhibts end 29th June 2015. For more information you could view from the official website of Plaza Singapura.

In Memoriam - Lee Kuan Yew Exhibition at Singapore National Museum

Was at the Singapore National Museum to view the exhibition of Memorial to Lee Kuan Yew.

This memorial exhibition will be on till end of June and after that the exhibits will be placed in another permanent place in the museum.

This Rolex Oyster Perpetual Watch 1953 was presented to Lee Kuan Yew by the Singapore Union of Postal and Telecommunictions Workers when he had successfully represented the union in an arbitration over a wage dispute. Eventually, nearly 1,000 clerks received 28 months' back pay.

Lee Kuan Yew sending a telegram back home to his family informing them he was arriving Singapore and the battleship was really meant to have steam boat (a kind of hot pot) dinner.

This glass master plate was used for printing leaflets for Lee Kuan Yew's campaign during the 1955 General Elections.
