Thanks to Inche - I got to go to Latern Festival with half the price :p
We reached there at around 7pm. The place was blasted with traditional Chinese songs, which suit the mood of mid autumn festival. The place was quite crowded and my camera wasn't very good with night shot, but we managed to get some nice shots still!
This year, the focus was more on children’s tale. Almost every latern prop is a story by itself! And I know most of the stories! Guess the stories I read during childhood was of international standard then :p
The weather was great and it was a nice stroll from one end to another. We ended at 9pm with a firework performance. I have never see a firework as close as that before! Too close actually. Some of the dust actually fell to us and we started to back off a bit ^^;
It was a really nice hang out with Che and family... I really hope I didn't become too much of stranger :p And Singapore, yeah, it's like it came out with new exhibition every other day. What's next?
Had fun with lanterns,
