Fireworks by the bay

We ushered in 2011 with a run down to the waterfront to watch the fireworks.

We contemplated driving down with a picnic basket, thinking in our minds that it would be empty the way it normally is.

Thank goodness for the very-loudly-ticking biological clock (hello, 27! - definitely late 20s now), which told me we should get off our asses and stop pigging out.

As soon as we turned into the Tanjong Rhu stretch, we knew we made a good decision to run down because there were cars backed up for miles and miles. I suppose they all had the same brilliant idea of watching the fireworks from down this way.

We found a spot at about 11.33, and settled in to wait for the midnight fluorescent shower. It was gorgeous. I love fireworks.

There were too many people to run home after, so we took a slow walk back.

Ended the (late) night with a dinner of pasta, salad and grapes.
