Act like you are on the flyer!
And we are still just leaving the station!
Back to the city view (west)
Some miscellaneous shots of the wheel at night, it rotates colour gradually

Then it's off to the Lollipop!
Finally some things to see!
Here we are at the top of the revolution
The night experience is just as unique as the day, or you can experience both like me!
Here we are at the Singapore Flyer!
The last of the waiting areas where groups are dispatched in capsule groups
And that's how it looks like on the back
And down we go!
Ok, That is all folks! Remember to check out my article on the flyer itself!
Some nice shots of the wheel at the shopping area
Crossing the "Aero" bridge over the Yakult moat
Rawwr I am angry capsule on your tail...
As it gets darker, the blue glow in the capsule becomes more noticable

Some bridging shots
Here we are at the central boarding "hording" area
Here we spot a UFO calling spire
Photogenic moment of the transforming marina bay
A view just as fine as art
Courtesy of these Mitsubishi heavy duty torque motors (12 of them to be exact)
Presumably rigged to our capsule roof top compass as well
Oh so that's where we came from!
To get on the giant lollipop, you need tickets!
Here comes our capsule of death!
The first highlight the Singapore GP Pit and starting Grid
Rawewr me angry capsule still on your tail!
The Yakult garden, from the 2nd floor entrance
I peek with my little eye
On the rear we have Temasek boulevard in the background
A shot of the Skyline with The Sheares bridge lit
Standard security checks before entering
The capsule is filled up with about 15 people before...
And the sun is setting!
The ride ends and it's all dark already!
Then you get to scan your card to enter the holding area
they shut you in for the whole ride! (theres only door handles on the outside)
Capsules are enclosed so no kids can fall off hidden holes!
Out of the capsule here we go!
View of the capsules from the 2nd floor
So here we set off on our 50cm/second journey
Nice view
The place looks rather spacey-porty at night
Some of the long stretches to the queue area
They even have nice compass maps with can double for Kacump Puteh snacks as well!
About 10 minutes and we are 1/3 into the revolution
