Festival mood

Went out to catch Fly By Night at the Alexandra Gardens (one of the festival performances) this evening. I was really amazed at the crowds of people on the streets especially along the river, around the Arts Centre, Alexandra Gardens and Fed Square. Looked like the entire city was out in the same area! There must have been thousands of people! Just looking at all the people around was fascinating enough for me. Didn't bring my camera out today so no good pictures to put up.

After the performance we wandered over to the "beach" at the Arts Centre (which was created for the festival too). Loved the atmosphere all around - kids running around in the sand, people watching the big screen and the fake beach boxes to add to the mood :)

It's a good thing the weather is really nice these days too. Would not be as fun if everyone were hot and sticky. Will go back for more tomorrow and I will definitely bring the camera.

A bit of trivia: Singapore is represented by a guppy on the river :)
