A walk around Marina Bay

I have been training for a half marathon, my first ever, for the past few weeks. I was doing pretty good until last week anyway... I pulled a muscle in my leg and I have been limping around since it happened. I am not able to run at all and walking is even painful after a short time so I have been taking it easy and hoping it heals quickly. Since I have been resting my legs I thought I would share a few pictures I have taken recently at the Marina Bay Sands which is close to home.



There are gondolas inside the mall. 


The clouds were so pretty, the skyline is great and I like the reflection in the pond.


The lotus pond is surrounding the Art Science Museum. In the background you can see the Double Helix pedestrian bridge and the Singapore Flyer (giant ferris wheel). The flower is there temporarily as an art installation.


Singapore is the first stop in Asia for the Love and Peace installation. There is one in New York and several in Europe. You can check it out at lovepeaceflower.com 




That is the Marina Bay Sands in the background. The top of the building (the part that looks like a boat) has a skypark, infinity pool and a restaurant. The mall and casino take up the first few floors and the towers are hotel rooms.


Interesting point of view. Love the sky! It started raining seconds after I took this picture. It didn't look like rain was so close. The lotus shaped building is part of the Art Science Museum. 

Happy Friday!
