Singapore flyer

We went to the Singapore flyer  today to see Singapore from the tallest ferris wheel in the world. It was pretty neat and I enjoyed it more than I expected to quite honestly. It was pretty neat seeing everything from way up high. It's a much different perspective for sure.

When we got the tickets bought, the lady gave Raelee a duck noise maker....and we do so love the lady that gave it to her...really...we do.

View of the workings in the middle of the flyer.

You can see mom and dad's condo at about 3/4 the way into the picture . It is dead center (up and down).

View of the 'car' that was just 'in front' of ours.

I love this stadium in the middle of the water. What a neat idea!

These are the durian buildings. This is where they have plays and opera's and such.

Clark Quay from up high. We are going here in a few days.

Raelee has been in a mood the last few days. She's very homesick. It makes me sad :(  She's very whiny and not real easy to please right now.  I couldn't get a decent picture of her in the flyer...but that's ok. This is as good as it gets.  She was very hungry (she couldn't have been TOO hungry..she had just eaten breakfast)...I think the thought that she COULDN'T eat for a whole 30 minutes was the problem..not that she was actually hungry.

See all the taxi's (the blue and yellow car?)

We aren't sure what this is in the water. I'm posting this here thinking maybe somebody from Singapore might be able to tell me what it is.

We ate at Popeye's. See the orange panel? It's for Louisiana travelers (it even says so!)  No, I didn't order the calamari..rofl

Raelee has been wanting to ride these things. It's much more work than it looks like. She got over it pretty quick..rofl

This is some kind of baby swimming thing they do here. They put the tiny baby in a donut dealy right under their head and put them in  a deep tub and they swim. Look up "hwa xia" on youtube. There are a few video's on there. they won't let you take pictures of the babies in the tubs but they had stuff on the windows...so I took pictures of those. Look it up..it's wild.

Like I said..there are plenty of ways Raelee can get wet in Singapore...even on the roof of a mall..lol

She found friends to play with on this spinny thingy. SHe loved this and had a blast playing until I made her get off because it was HOT up there.

 You can visit a lot of malls here in Singapore and never leave the building...just the shops/floors/smells change. In this instance, we went from Vivo City (touristy, expensive, smelled nice, cool, clean, etc) to Harbor front (not as expensive (i.e. cheap), didn't smell as nice, was warmer and the floors weren't glittery and shiny..rofl.) I had to take a picture of the difference in floors from one mall to the other. It's remarkable..the fact that they can change things just.like.that.

We came home and decorated the Christmas tree. Raelee was thrilled with doing this today.

We put some of the cinnamon pulp ornaments on the tree.

She DID get in a better mood later in the day :)

She happily put one of the ornaments she decorated on the tree :)
