Singapore Flyer

Okay... Yes. I went to the Singapore Flyer today... and...

WHAT A RIP OFF


My dad and I booked the tickets online, thinking that there might be a queue to get the tickets there. -_- Okay... $29.00 for EACH adult. So it was almost $30. And well, up for 30 minutes. So what are they tryin to do? Make you pay ONE BLOODY DOLLAR for EVERY FREAKIN MINUTE???

Are they insane money sucking machines or what??? YEah yeah, I might get arrested for criticising them like that. But seriously. And you know what, before you go up on the Flyer (notice that I still have the heart to call it with a capital "F"), they take your picture with this green cloth as the background. They edit your photo, so that it'll look like as if someone took a picture of you from the outside of those huge containers.

Well, when my dad and I got down from the Flyer, we were just gonna see what the picture looked like. If we liked it, we might buy it. If we don't like it, we won't buy it. Yeah, and when I gave the lady at the counter the tag thingy, she said,"I'm sorry but your picture was not captured." I could have blown up you know that. But luckily, we weren't expecting to buy that picture, so we just smiled and walked away.

But imagine this. WHAT IF, what if, someone came to S'pore for a holiday. Okay. And the S'pore Flyer was the only thing that person has not seen, and he/she decided to use her leftover money to get on the Flyer. And when he/she lands into the same situation as me, how do you think the person would feel? The lady at the counter didn't even OFFER us an opportunity to re-take that photo. If she has suggested it, maybe I wouldn't be typing all this crap.

Anyhow, I took like, 52 pics when I was up there. heh -_-

Halfway across


Preparing for the F1 race I can see...


Okay... I have NO idea why I was standing with my legs so wide o.o That's my dad in blue btw :)


Nice view right? :D Probably the only nicest one -_-


I dunno who these people are, but they asked me to take pictures for them twice. Using their phones of course. I wonder how old they are... They were pretty shy bout asking me to take the pic for them. Haha. I was shy bout letting them hear my voice (I sound REALLY sick).
