Singapore in Seven: The Singapore River

That night we headed down to the Singapore River. They had just finished this esplanade when we left Singapore in 2003. Some call it the Giant Durian. Some call it Fly Eyes. CC took me to see the musical "Singing in the Rain" there a long time ago.

There were hints of how it used to look, but mostly, the downtown area had changed. It was always beautiful and striking, but even more so now.

This part perhaps looked the most similar. How many times that first year did we get to the end of a long work week, then hop on a bus downtown to eat dinner out together? 

Thankfully the Merlion remained!!! The Merlion is Singapore's mascot!
