#344 - Kite Flying with The (Doh) Bitches

Kite flying with The (Doh) Bitches last year! :D

Headed to Chinatown to get our kites because we weren't sure where else to get them!

Acted totally like tourists when we got there!

This entry was drafted so long ago just that I was waiting to kope some photos from Lynette's DSLR. :D
 
*plays CNY song*
Gong Xi Gong Xi Gong Xi Ni~

Found the pushcart that sells kites! :D


Decided to skip these stores first to see if there's any other kites shops!

Walked down the streets of Chinatown, feeling as though it's CNY already.


Ended up there was no other shops that sell kites so we headed back to the one we saw just now.


Choosing kites~


Raine got one for herself and another for me as a form of 'apology' for being late. :P

Last few shots of Chinatown before we left for Marina Bay!

Stood outside the temple in the photo to pray!


Arrived at Marina Bay and didn't know where to take the shuttle bus!
We crossed here and there like idiots!


Called shawn and he told us the way!
The longer one though. :/

Had to walk past this tunnel!


Skipping the bus ride and on to Marina Barrage!
First time there and was surprised that's it's actually quite huge!

*Pardon for sudden flood of touristy photos, skip this part if you must*

So many people flying kites on that day!

The weather wasn't exactly good, see the huge cloud?
But the wind was super strong!

Said before, but saying again: Gonna love my Lumix's zoom function! :D


After walking the big round thing, we've reached!

 Me with my kite. :)
First time flying ok!

Weather really wasn't that good as I've mentioned.
Looks like it's about to rain too (and I was right about that)!

See below for the progress of the huge dark cloud!


So scary but we still continued flying the kite!
And apparently, we tied the kite wrongly (my first time flying it) and thus had troubles flying it!

Then this Indian man came in to help!

And our kite flew damn high and it's like awwwww.
So touched that it can fly, that kind of feeling y'know!

Pretty shots by Lynette's DSLR!


Yupps that's my kite! :D
We only 'built' one kite to test first!

Our kite flew so high that I got scared of looking at it!
Somemore the sky felt so near because of the clouds!


It's so high lah, gandong max canzxzxzx.

Spotted some cute kites too!

See this maple leaf!
So cute righhhhht! :D

And this huge ladybird too! :)

Then when we were all enjoying, announcement came and mentioned that there was a lightning risk.
How sad when we were only starting to enjoy flying the kite! :(

So we packed and left.
Halfway down, it started raining and later there was a heavy downpour!

Lucky us who managed to escape that! :)

Stoned awhile under shelter playing Stress and noming food.

And don't ever buy this.
For a person like me who loves salty stuff max, this is too salty for me.
Not worth it!

 Rain stopped and we headed to Bugis Illuma!


And we had KOI!
First time trying too!

Hazelnut Milk Tea recommended by Lynette. :)
Pretty good, fragrant I have to say but too much pearls!

Ending off this entry with a funny photo of Raine in her cosplay lookalike clothes who was trying to imitate Sha Wu Jing, one of the characters in the Journey to the West.

Here's a side by side comparison!
Hahahahaha!
