wednesday was a R&R day entirely spent at shangrila hotel for a hr summit meeting. we were all treated to a rare outing at the end with a free ride on sg flyer including a sumptuous seafood dinner to wrap things up.
the mention of the sg flyer excites me. afterall, it's the latest sg landmark, a close replica of the london eye. despite the fact that it coincides with toastmasters, i didnt want to miss out the chance to ride the flyer for free!
the 'excursion' ended with nothing memorable except the walk up to the capsule which raised the level of excitement momentarily. the journey was smooth and view was predictable given that i'm familiar with the landscape around the flyer. i could only remember the constant snapping of photos and a glimpse some parts f1 race track which would otherwise be hidden by the barriers at ground level.
the lacklustre day was compensated by an excellent seafood dinner hosted by the organiser. at the end of the day, we were stuffed full with red/white wine, lobsters and the best of all, alaskan crabs dipped in butter cream sauce!
i guess trading learning opportunities at toastmasters for treats like this is well worth it!
