sunday streets

i’ve only realized that my compact flash card missing when we planned for a sunday afternoon out on the streets. we did a last view of our sunrise shots during breakfast, must have left it on the table when we left to pack up our stuffs for the trip home from rompin. bought a new one – $45 (sgd) for a 4gb x133 kingston! when it comes to electronics shopping, gawd i love this place (touristy tip for you folks, when in singapore forget the cultural knickknacks. dive into an electronics & i.t shopping frenzy instead! :subnote: – do get in touch with your singaporean friends so as they can direct you away from overcharging merchants and towards the best deals)

after that, on to the streets….

sungei road – used to be called “thieves market” due to a practice where thieves sell back stuff they’ve stolen here. now, its a premier place for selling second hand or relic goods ranging from amulets to old dinosaur aged laptop computers. the peddlers don’t usually respond very well to people with cameras in their faces (read: aggressive sometimes) so we slapped on a wide angle, hung it over our necks and did some drive-by shooting.

changi airport terminal 3

just for the record, changi airport terminal 3 is not a passenger terminal building – its a shopping center with “parking spaces” for airplanes.

bring your comfortable walking shoes ladies, its gonna be a long long walk (seriously!) from aerobridge to the transit shops or vice versa when you land into singapore. if you’re a serial shopper and plan to do some serious spending the moment you land, make sure you skip the in-flight movies and charge up with sleep first – you gonna need it.
