Closing Ceremony for Youth Olympic Games in Singapore


Hey there, Yesterday night (Thursday) we hit up the youth olympic games closing ceremony in downtown Singapore. We got tickets about 2 weeks ago for 15 dollars each. Upon arrival we got an official olympics canvas party bag which included a lit up hat (pictured at bottom), flags, food, noise makers and other little light toys. It brought back memories of birthday parties and the included party favors. Anyways it was a really neat ceremony and very motivational, although it was pretty warm and humid. There were shows and fireworks put on by Singapore and then the normal olympics closing ordeal and then China the next summer YOG host put on a little show. Some more additional info: The actual stage is a like a barge which floats in the bay. It is able to be moved around on the water and is called the float @ marina bay. The winter YOG will be held in austria 2012 and summer will be held in China 2014. For those of you who dont know this was the first youth olympic games ever, the people in Singapore are pretty proud of it. If you want to see more pics of this outing click here.

We dont really know yet what we are going to be doing this weekend, but whatever it is, it will be pretty chill. Ill plan on posting again in a week er so.
Until then have a good one,
Brett
