We reached Marina Bay MRT entrance at 8.05pm and the notice on the information board says that the last bus to Marina Barrage is at 8pm. The opening ceremony of Singapore Arts Festival is scheduled to start at 8pm too! I was slightly disappointed for wasted more time in shopping earlier.
But then, we were still determined to go and did not mind boarding public bus no. 400 (which means further of walking to the bus station) and so, we walked to the bus station. Then we saw the organiser's team and they told us there are still shuttle bus to Marina Barrade until 8.30pm. =) I was so glad!
The organiser is also smart for arranging more shuttle bus (though the grand event had already started) as they know that people like us would go late..it's better to be late than never- right?
Nice~!

The quick snap near the entrance before heading to the dance event
The giant Grasshopper covering it's ears? I dunno..
We went to the upper tier (2 floors up) and this was the front view, as were were told by the organisers that there will be fireworks at 9pm! *excited*
And we lepak here for some time from the rooftop, overlooking the eight pavilions that you can sit in and enjoy the water view too. This is the Singapore's 11th water reservoir (and the newest) of 1200 sqm powered up by 405 solar panels. More info here
Nice~!

Seems like really nice le. I can't believe I missed it twice! in 2008 and now again, Arghh!
Nevermind, the pictures I showed you can substitute part of it. And the fireworks wasn't that grand and long. Simple ones.. After all, it was really, really crowded. Plus, by our height, really have to rely on chairs provided at the garden to see the event. Must go earlier for the next time!
Hmm, then maybe 2010 then, wouldn't miss it thrice gua. Btw the national day parade tickets is out, Have to go apply and there will be a ballot system for the tickets (if you are lucky enough you will get it).Me not trying though, going bac Msia them.
