The plane food is reasonably good too.
mmm sticky thingies...
In flight entertainment is all the difference it makes in keeping sane over 9 hours
Our flight to Dubai!
Over the Olympic flame
A fireworks display for the night
Thats all folks! for now!
A closing view of the bridge and the resort
The youth olympic mascots and the flame
Coupled with a light show
The Youth Olympic flame in the distance
The Singapore skyline with the light beam show
and the hotel block too!
The helix bridge all lit up
Outside the convention center at nightfall
Several underground linkways serve the shops & hotel
Looks awfully similar to Mandarin hotel
A walk towards tower 2 and 3
The buffet is packed!
The place serves an international spread for $80/head
The dessert spread in the buffet
The first tower is quite a top spectacle
The nice glass wall links between the towers
Unlike hotels in Vega, this hotel block is seperate from the Casino
The linked glassways spanning the 3 towers
The front hotel facade.
The adjacent iconic hotel blocks
Killer spikes at the Casino entrances. :3
Loads of ATMs to keep the gamblers loaded. No cash deposit machines though. :P
The entrance to the casino
Kids at the Casino?
Mmmm lots of glass...
which is far from a spectacle, really
With a little canal running it's length
Inside the main building
Shaun hanging off a line!
2 cranes, one view
Giant wishing satellite?
The front of the convention center, shops & casino
Oh so that's where we are all along.
The CLAW! (we will be eternally grateful!)
A magnificent sunset
The bridge runs parallel to this road bridge serving the vincinity
view of the central business district on the bridge
note the reassuring lack of shelter
The bridge is cladded with mesh and translucent glass
The floating platform grandstand after the YOG opening
the sheltered bridge offers peeks of the IR through it's helix
Lets get on the bridge already!
Views below the bridge
