NDP 2007Hah.... This year's NDP 2007 I can say I both enjoyed and filled with anger a lot...
Enjoy? It's the joy of getting to ride on a Cherry QQ driven by Darryl... imagine... 5 person squeezing into this 800cc small little car...
We went to Giant Vivocity to buy some drinks and proceed to the NDP area and find a parking lot but in the end, we still ended up parking at Marina South (few steps away from Marina South Pier) and walked all the way (abt 5-10 mins walk) to the big grass patch at the new extension near 1 Raffles Quay.
Well, Darryl was using his tripod and his Nikon DSLR to snap fireworks, while ZP uses his Canon DSLR to snap fireworks too but freehand... (i.e without a tripod)
After all the fireworks were over (8 plus), while the rest went to Jln Kayu to enjoy their prata for dinner, I was suffering like hell... Especially for SMRT Service 960... See for yourself below:
1 phrase.... Seeing is believing!!

Click on these 2 links above to read about it.... Not going to explain any further... Imagine... ALWAYS at night... See all the Indians PUSHING themselves way in to squeeze in this Service 960 bendy (at that time I took this video, the bus registration number was TIB 1068 G), I can -_-" and pengz liao..
TO think SMRT claimed that it was FULL FLEET bendy fleets on Aug 9 (which is National day)... Then I should expect the worst of the worst to come during the normal Fridays and weekends when at least 3 (THREE) to 5 (FIVE) RIGIDs are deployed on Service 960....
