Chingay 2008

Chingay is back to City Hall!!

In order to get a gd spot, we reached there before 7pm. The areas along the parade route is already very crowded. I manage to get myself a gd spot by the railing, but JR was kana pushed backward by the aunties... endup i had to take photos for the whole 3hrs w/o helper (JR).

Here's the some snaps before the parade..

The Guest-of-Honour & other VIPs make their way to the grand stand (start pt of the parade), with accompanied by the Singapore Gdn Festival Float (in the middle of the photo), Ghingay Love Boat (top right corner), Pride of Lion (middle right), Vintage car, Harley Davidson bikes (bottom left corner), various sports cars.

Parade Started off with Fireworks at the grand stand @ City Hall, followed by the RED BULL F1 CAR SHOW. Wow!! It's so cool, so happy to see the tremendous performance of the F1 car!! I managed to video it (but it's too big to upload it here =P), here's few screenshots.
