This past Sunday Jamie and I went to the Singapore Flyer with some friends. The Flyer is a Singapore trade mark of which they are extremely proud! It is the biggerst one in the world and reaches 165 meter high (which is about 540 or so feet)! The views of the Singapore skyline are great and on a clear day you can see the islands from Indonesia and Malaysia. The idea was to hit it around sunset, thinking we would get the best of the day and night. But as our luck would have it the skys turned out to be pretty overcast. The views were still really cool, and it was a fun experience. Here is an article that was on MSN before Jamie and I moved here. I emailed it to him and we put it on the list as one of the things to see when we got here.

(This is what the little "pods" that we were in looked like. I know some of you are thinking "that's too high up, what if it gets stuck?". Not too worry, there is a ladder that goes all the way around!)

(Jamie likes to call these "Photos from a McMillan family reunion". They were having a Euro Sports Car Club dinner at this hotel and there had to be a hundered, high end sports cars in the hotel parking lot. Most of which were Lamborghinis. If you click on the photo you can see tons more in the background!)
