So you must think that I am mad to have attended the Art Festival 2010 Opening at the grounds of Empress Place and Asian Civilization Museum ( there were more 'fire' around the Esplanade area, but we didn't venture there)
Yeah, I braved the heat to go for the art installation which had a fire theme. It was beautiful..the way the artists put fire on display :) In fact, I felt it was all very medieval , like there was some ritual going on, all that was lacking was some witch or wizard to be burned :P
Knowing how warm the area is gonna be, I was dressed in tank top and skirt :D and how happy me and P were to gulp down the free can of coke light while touring the fire garden. ( Oh yes, Coke sponsored free flow of coke light! )
Took this photo while making

ACM holds many memories for me as
our gamelan group used to play there on
several saturdays many years ago.

It was very crowded so we only visited the exhibits on the jewels
of the Mughals Empire
big diamond!
Ruby with inscription on it
Some treasured porcelain on display
cute display of the tea set
All in all, we spent an hour there
as we had to rush for Ironman 2
at 9.30pm. Wasn't as good as Ironman 1
though.. still watchable.
