NDP Combined Rehearsal

This weekend, I managed to catch up on some shopping (bought quite a few items needed) and we also went to the NDP combined rehearsal show on Saturday at Marina Bay. Dear's colleague passed him a pair of tickets and there we were at the new venue for the first time. It was quite a hot afternoon but we were well prepared with umbrella, hats and fan. Ha ha... Anyway, this show being the second combined rehearsal to date, did not turn out that great. I felt that that some parts of the program have more room for improvement in terms of the timing and coordination of the performers. Only a few items helped to make the show better - the para-troopers descent, the chinooks, apaches and F16s that flew past, and this time round, a little bit more 'excitement' in the waters surrounding the floating platform. The mass performance, unfortunately was boring, and there were no fireworks to end of the event! Guess this wasn't such a good preview after all. Still look forward for the possibility of catching the official preview before the actual NDP.

Well, time flies, half the year has gone and now's the start of the second half of 2007. Soon our photo album which we first started to capture weekly updates of what we did, will be a year old! Looking forward to year end already....
