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
The youth olympic mascots before the flyer

Ok, That is all folks! Remember to check out my article on the flyer itself!
The night experience is just as unique as the day, or you can experience both like me!
Some miscellaneous shots of the wheel at night, it rotates colour gradually
And here we are at the VIP room!
Here you get to see your green screen photos you've taken pre-ride, costs $12-$20
More $$$ spent!
Across the exit aero bridge to...
Side rails ensure no angry hordes meet trampoline net
The place looks rather spacey-porty at night
Out of the capsule here we go!
The ride ends and it's all dark already!
A shot of the Skyline with The Sheares bridge lit
Rawewr me angry capsule still on your tail!
Oh so that's where we came from!
Photogenic moment of the transforming marina bay
As it gets darker, the blue glow in the capsule becomes more noticable
And down we go!
Here we are at the top of the revolution
Back to the city view (west)
Everyone rushed for seats at the start, 5 minutes later, no one was on them!
It still looks like day on the east side
The wheel lights are on past 7pm
The night is approaching and we are still climbing up!
About 10 minutes and we are 1/3 into the revolution
Nice view
Capsules are enclosed so no kids can fall off hidden holes!
And the sun is setting!
On the rear we have Temasek boulevard in the background
The first highlight the Singapore GP Pit and starting Grid
Presumably rigged to our capsule roof top compass as well
