Went on the Singapore Flyer last Friday.
it was a company event.
About 90% of the whole company’s headcount went I supposed.
everyone was sooo looking forward to experiencing the ride.
our dept went in the boss’ car;
we left the workplace @ 5.30pm and reach the Flyer about 7pm.
I know traffic is heavy usually for knocking off time,
but I had no idea that it was THAT bad.
Somemore there was an accident at clementi area :(
Finally we reached, and we strolled around first; exploring the place.
It was a nice place I would say, and quite a few makan places,
but I reckon they are most probably quite expensive.
Before boarding, we had to queue and queue,
and there is a security check (alike airport security check with sensor).
Then we were led to this aisle connecting to that aisle;
the whole experience is really kinda like boarding a plane. LOL !
We started our ride about 7.30pm.
Each journey in the capsule is approximately 30min.
Within the first 15min, everybody was still excited by the view, and snapping non-stop.
After that, most of us sat down and chitchatted instead.
It was really nothing much, like some of my frens who went told me.
But still it was quite an experience, to be on the Flyer with my colleagues;
on the 3rd week @ my new workplace :)
