- Welcome to Singapore's Airport Terminal 3!

- finally time to enter the restricted areas!
- the the dismay of aunties all around, looks like no one can do much shopping today!

- noticeboard rules for those who get a kick from reading all these...
- lined throughout are also these spill-resistant back-bendy designer-looking seats
- the demo skytrain in operation
- another moment of zen with the cool umm green wall!
- note how vast the place is, not to mention a 7 floor skylit ceiling!
- this long arrival walkway runs the whole length of the first floor
- linking T2 and T3 together!
- so the trains travel like giant Tamiya race cars in contained tracks in a mechanical layman sense
