Seriously, I must admit that this is the first time of my life to attend a live NDP performance.
Even though this is just the preview, but to me, it is a great experience, and from now on, I would try to ballot for tickets every year.
Watching it live is never quite the same as watching it on television every year. Apart from the crowd and the heat of the sun, the rest of the preview was simply awesome. Its the one time of the year that really bring Singaporeans together in one heart, one soul.
And this year, the NDP is going to be held at Marina Bay Floating platform, and the view is breath-taking especially after the sunset, because the audience will be facing the entire Marina Bay Sands view.
It was also considered a night out with mummy and my sister.
On the way to the platform.
The stage with the MBS background before sunset.
many people were already there by the time we get there at 445pm.

Busy cam-whoring around while waiting for the parade to start…
the view of MBS before the sun set.
and a sea of red!
really a very heart warming sight when everyone starts to wave the flag in sync and started to sing all the national day songs.
Many of the songs were those that I used to sing in school. Nostalgic!
Now is one of my favourite part of the parade every year.
Wanna make a guess?
I think these men are cool!!!
And not forgetting the must-have: SG flag flying high in the sky with the jetplanes.
and soon, the program started- this year, it is in the form of a musical, where Sharon Au was the main lead.
Through the form of storytelling, they brought across the development of Singapore over the last 46 years. We have gone through tremendous growth and changes and today, we are such a developed and beautiful nation.
The stage. Pretty lightings with the skyscrapers in the background. Perfect match.
As the sun start to set in a span of minutes, MBS also start to transform its beauty.
And of cos, the best part of the entire night!!
The fireworks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Too bad I did not have enough time to figure out to use the correct mode to capture the moments.
So ended up with the Auto mode.
Snap, snap, snap!!
It is indeed a beautiful and special night.
So thankful to the committee and everyone who had put in their effort to make this NDP preview a success.
And of cos, the organisers for giving away the free tickets.
Will definitely be looking forward to NDP 2012!
