Giant wheel of the world


Say hello !



to the world's largest observation wheel



THE SINGAPORE FLYER...




2008 sees the unveiling of a fresh record breaker, The Singapore Flyer, a 165m wheel capable of carrying 784 passengers.

the singapore flyer is currently still soaring high as the world's largest observation wheel.. not until the great beijing wheel & the great berlin wheel comes in 2009.Damn!

oh well,we'll reign number one for at least now till 2009.

how cool is that!

I have wanted to be the first to take the inaugural flight of e singapore flyer,but somehow due to lack of time....

i only took the singapore flyer with my two pals sherlyn and rex couple of weeks back:(

sherlyn who looks pretty au natural refuses to be in this blog entry as she didnt put on make up.thus,photos of her will be missing in this entry.

so the only available camwhores at ur service will be yours truly and t.rex.


b4 u embark on your ride...u have to go thru some very strict security checks.


yes by me!!!

inspector benji reporting.


a picture taken with their staff...what a shy gal.

lets take a look at our singapore's pride & joy...



this awesome shit is built at a cost of S$240 million!imagine that amt of money!wooo.

@165 metres, it offers views of the city to even parts of Malaysia and Indonesia.

Each ride will last about 37 minutes.

tickets @ $29.50 for an adult



all in the comfort and luxury of air-conditioned capsules which can be customized for that special experience in the sky.


look at how beautiful this singapore baby is......its definitely worth the 240 mils eh.

being Asia's first-ever giant observation wheel, it offers visitors panoramic 360-degree views of the burgeoning Marina Bay area.



now lets take a look @ e breathtaking, panoramic views of the Marina Bay, our island city and beyond.


i'll show some random pictures of the view we see.










thats all homies.


its much more exciting to see the view from e capsule of the singapore flyer....then thru pictures on my blog
hmmm.....

but i'll be extremely honest....

it can be a teeny bit boring during the 37 mins,since there aint any super duper hot views that i can rave about in delirium.

oh well,but bring ur camera and head to e singapore flyer if u got some time to spare...

take lotsa pictures....

which i did...


mostly of myself....haha big yawn.



i was secretly hoping the 240 mils is spend on makin a world class roller- coaster than a observation wheel.

especially when ferris wheel aint exactly the ride i always look forward to in theme parks.

but i am still proud of our singapore flyer anyway.

similar to the London Eye, the Singapore Flyer is definitely a unique attraction for leisure travellers.

so rem to go take our asia's first-ever giant observation wheel if u havent...
Singapore flyer!!!being number one in e world must be a great feelin...u're the pride of e herd!i'm so proud of u !!


toodles and i promise to update this blog as often as i can:)

Ben > John should be reading your entry. You will make the STB folks very happy. I'll try check it out before and after the Marina Sands construction. Btw, did you ask the lady at the flyer for a photo or vice versa? Haha.

Duncan > The full trip is roughly 30 minutes. Bet you cant afford to stop work for that long!!
