Singapore Trip 2012

I realized I haven't blogged about this yet.  Last July, I went to Singapore to shoot a few scenes for Angelito: Ang Bagong Yugto pilot.  Before the actual shoot, Rose and I did an ocular inspection of our shooting locations.  We used the time to be tourists as well.  Here are the pictures.

Down the Flyer, after food tripping

Got lost finding Marina Barrage and found our way to the new Garden By The Bay.  Great landscape architecture!

Food tripping at Glutton's Bay

You cannot leave Singapore without taking your picture with the famous Merlion

Sentosa!

Scary ride at Sentosa (well, for me :D)

In front of Universal Studios (wasn't able to go inside)


 
My first out-of-country trip is actually in Singapore.  Back then, I was in awe of the country because of its modern infrastructure and cleanliness.  It's still the same but after having been to other Asian countries like China (Hongkong) & Japan,  Singapore now seems, I don't know, bland?  I might have to take a 3rd visit, without working, to be able to judge.  I feel safe in Singapore, though.  Perfect for vacation with family.

The last time I was in Singapore, I was also working.  We were shooting the box-office film All My Life.  I have two blog entries about our out-of-country shoot.  If you're curious, you can click here.

I already miss traveling. Universe, please conspire to make Seoul in November a reality!
