The Grand Plan I - Location location location!

Half of the FOTR have gone for an informal recce of proposed site for the grand plan, unwittingly. The question has been posed: how are you getting the fireworks? National Day Parade? Sparklers from the mama shop?


The answer has been unveiled and it is plain and simple - Songs of the Sea.

For those who are not aware, the old musical fountain at Sentosa has been demolished and a replacement of sorts has been built on Siloso Beach with more pyrotechnics, laser guns and... fireworks!

Songs of the Sea is performed twice daily starting at 740 and 840pm. Judging by the timing witnessed earlier by SFD and HQ earlier, it takes about 30 minutes after the show commences to have the bulk of the fireworks lighting up. As "duh" as the plot of the performance is (yes..I actually watched it..and someone please shoot the playwright), the fireworks display is impressive nonetheless and should be clearly visible from the planned location. We will need to verify this further on a detailed recce of the ground.

Suffice to say, when the fireworks are lit, out comes the bling bling, out comes the balloon, out comes the banner. We have to get the timing right....
