That day was a really hot day. We need to gather at the F1 pit building spectator area at 5pm and while taking our dinner, the sun was shining at us mercilessly. Although it was hot, it wasn't so bad around 6plus when the show was about to start. It has been 8 years since i last attended a Chingay show personally. The last time, we were in Orchard and we only get to sit by the road side on the hard cemented ground. This year, there are seats allocated, just like watching F1 race, so it was really much better!
This year's theme is called Fire in Snow, 雪中火，the song is very nice, for more details, you can check it out at this website. http://www.chingay.org.sg/
Here are some photos i have taken.
What i enjoyed most and the things you can look for:
1. The Taichi sword performance
2. The ukulele and choir contingent, the 10 yr old boy can sing really really well. I was mesmerised by his voice!
3. The performers to the song "Phantom of the opera" and 周杰伦的霍元甲.
4. Look out for Yam Ah Mee in the cooking part. I heard he was supposed to be cooking something.
5. The dragon dance and the stilts
6. The finale was grand, with the majestic lion and condor floats, fire that was lighted up with fire torches carried by 1000 resilient singaporeans, "snow" falling and finally fireworks!!!
