I had dinner with jieyun and jingxuan tonight. More like supper, but it was dinner cos none of us ate dinner before that. We met at al-azar opposite beauty world at 8.30pm. We had a fun time talking and eating
Since I drove, and jieyun wanted to go dou fong, she suggested we go see the new double helix bridge near the marina bay IR. So we drove past it on the new flyover.
Then we drove past the IR. It’s the first time I’ve seen the new IR, even though it’s been up for some time. Jingxuan commented that don’t know why but whenever s’pore does something that other countries have, like build a casino, it doesn’t seem to look as good. Hahaha…
Then we decided to go to the marina barrage! Yay… Finally get to go there, and it’s at night! So we drove the long winding route into the barrage, and walked up. It’s quite nicely built. I always thought that the barrage was at sea-level, but it’s actually elevated, so need to walk up the winding slope structure.
There were quite a few kites, some of which flew quite high. And interestingly, some kites had lights on their strings! Like christmas lights… so can see who the kite flier was cos can track the string
We sat at the barrage, facing the lights of the city. S’pore is actually quite pretty at night, with all the lights and stars. We talked, lay down to look at the stars… it looked and felt like the omni-theatre. It’s like a sea of black sky with specks of stars, engulfing us in it’s awesome presence. Surreal experience. Haha.. wished I could just lie there and stare at the sky for ages.
Not a bad place for a wedding, but have to set up a tent with all the equipment and stuff, and think it’ll be quite expensive. Oh well…
Yep, nice place to go and relax
