Singapore Flyer - A Moving Experience at Every Turn




 ABBEY:
Wow, ferris wheel. I'm eager to ride this one as I wanted to see Singapore in aerial view. This is part of tourism's promotion regarding landmarks here. I heard reviews that when you ride the wheel in morning, you can even see part of Indonesia. I can't proved it cause we were there at night. The lights give more beauty to it. Truly a remarkable experience. A very nice sight when you're at the top.





WILL: This is the largest observation wheel all over the world, that's why we never let this experience to passed us. :) 
      They have a promotion for land-water-air view. For only S$29.00 each. So we do the boat ride first, in that, we saw Merlion ng paharap, lagi kasi patagilid eh. hehe.. Then we queue sa pagkahabang pila for our flight. 
      In the capsule for 30 mins, you can see the lights and glitters of city of Singapore. Their river is so clean. Nature was truly reserved in this country.
      It's a nice experience even at first my feet got numb because of the great height. Si chat nga muntik na magback-out. haha!

Quilt & Beddings at Metro Magic

Abbey: I'm hearing complains.."Pangit ng kumot"...."Ang lamig..tumatagos ang lamig".."Turn off the AC or electric fan". I don't have any idea what to give Wilma this holiday season and for our anniv. Then one Monday while I'm ironing clothes, I have this great plan. I'll buy what she wants. Quilt, with matching bed sheet. So after my chore, I hurried to the mall, and bought my presents. I was not wrong, she liked them. She was happy to have them. "Parang nasa hotel ako", that's what she said. It only cost a couple hundred of bucks, but her joy and her adequate sleep is priceless. Good thing there is Metro in Compass Point.


WILL: We badly need a rice cooker so I hurriedly go to Suntec to buy one. Upon asking Abbey if he can carry the rice cooker for me on his way home, he said "Ano to?", I answered "I bought new bed sheet, sale eh." 
      
His gift was busted again (bwahaaha), he opened his suitcase and there was 4 sets of gifts. 
      
Ripping the wrappers off, I saw a quilt and the whole set of beddings. Missed my comforter back in the Philippines. Kahit gabi, I cleaned the room and put on our new quilt. Hayyyy goodnight sleep. Parang nasa hotel lng ako. Love my Abbey, he knows exactly what I need.

ABBEY:
Merry Christmas :) Very seldom you will find belen in Singapore. That's why we decided to blog the most prominent Christmas symbol here. Yes, the Christmas trees. I like the most is the tree near our office. Siyempre, loyalty to your area :) They have a contest in Orchard for the most beautiful Christmas decoration. You can see different colors and sizes of the trees. In every mall, the tree becomes their center piece, reminding you that you have to go shopping. But beware, touching them will get you electrocuted. Just look at them, have pics and feel the Christmas spirit.


WILL: So, holiday is just around the corner. This is my 2nd year na I am not with my family, sadness, but the new and happy part is to be with my Abbey. Here in Singapore, walang malamig na simoy ng hangin.. malamig na simoy ng air-con lang.. ahahah.. U can only just feel na December na kasi ang daming Xmas Tree. 
      Kaya, Abbey and I decided to feature it it in our blog. For me the best tree eh yung s Sentosa. Why? recycled eh. Mas mahirap magpaganda ng galing s junk. Go Green :)
