X'mas @ S'pore

Hi, finally I'm back from my x'mas holiday. A fun but tiring trip. A white x'mas? Nah..not for this year, but a sunny and 'sweet' xmas. (as the theme for this year). It took me 2 hours to plan for the 5 days schedules...catering from shopping, sightseeing, walking.. and walking and walking. :P Well who doesn't know that xmas in S'pore is all about shopping and walking? Took a lot of photos this time eventhough I had been to s'pore countless times before.(thanks to my partner that seemed enjoyed nothing but taking photos..never understand guys)

First and foremost...a must-go place for x'mas in s'pore - Orchard. People say u never been to Spore if u never been to Orchard. Nevertheless, not a favourite place for me but a bit exceptional this year. As the saying goes "the sun will set in Marina Bay and the countdown shall begins in Orchard" ... We reached 6 hour earlier to Orchard (where the 24th Dec countdown was held, as usual), there were already, say, ten million people gathering in this road!! Not to mention the overcrowded restaurants and super-packed shopping megamall. This year's theme was sweet x'mas, therefore, the whole street was filled with candies. (but nothing is free)

Xmas tree is a must for this celebration. I had spotted a few ....

The x'mas tree in Vivo City was awarded (by me) as the king of x'mas tree. I sure looked tiny in photos with this gigantic tree as background. Built from millions of small colourful bulbs soaring up to the sky. Can u spot me in the photos?

The "Most romantic x'mas tree" award goes to Clark Quay's X'mas tree due to its whitish and pinkish lighting. Although not as huge as the earlier in Vivo City, the tree does have its own charm. An eye-catching tree.

The suntec city's one was full with silver balls and reddish decoration (not sure whether they were flowers or simply ribbons). Warning.. u need to queue up to take photos with this tree...haha.


x'mas tree on the way to Raffles City shopping mall. Such an out-dated x'mas tree. Built from ordinary xmas tree decorated with ordinary light bulb with one ordinary couple taking photos with it. :p
Had enough of x'mas tree? Well final one. Not a 'real' tree afterall but it simply caught every passerby' attention.This won the "Most creative x'mas tree" award. It was located near to Lau Pa Sat. Built from man-shaped steel, it withstand the rain and sun. Ever wonder will they tear it down after xmas?

So... that's all for all the award winning xmas tree in Spore... do u have anything to share? post your home xmas tree to me.. and i rate it...haha
