Christmas Kicks off in Singapore

The weather hasn't changed, but the mood sure has as Singapore kicks off the Christmas 08 season. Orchard Road (like Rodeo Drive of Asia) is all decked out and most of these photos were taken in front of the Tanglin Mall which is the beginning of the Orchard Road drive. At this corner they are decorating with a Green Theme, with all the decorations made from recycled materials. The added fact that most of them were made by mentally challenged adults makes it even more impressive. The kids are enjoying Singapore's only "snow" made from soap flakes mixed with water and then forced out into the air through fabric tubes. Although it was kind of gross to think about and way gross to smell, the affect was rather neat. The kids had a great time and are begging to do it again. The mall shoots the snow several times a week throughout the Christmas season. For my (Tanya's) family members, Can I use a photo of an ornament for the Tacky Ornament contest? See if you can find the ornament I would have submitted. Feliz Navidad everyone (and oh by the way, Happy Thanksgiving.)
