I love the nights and the lights

Two weeks ago at this time, I was in Singapore. This time, I had the opportunity to go out with some friends and we took some pictures. The night view of Singapore is really pretty. All the lighted tall buildings, shows how advanced Singapore is. And the best thing about Singapore is it's cleanliness. This picture was taken from The Merlion. Beautiful isn't it?And another picture of The Singapore Flyer. We were lucky to get this picture as earlier when we reached, they've turned off the lights. Just when we were packing to leave, they suddenly turned on the lights.

One week ago at this time, I was in Jakarta. We got some really nice night view of the city too. These pictures were taken from The Penthouse in Wisma Bakrie, where Eric had his wedding dinner. Awesome view. But unlike Singapore, Jakarta isn't a very nice place to be. The traffic jams were deadly. It took 1 to 2 hours of traffic jam to get to anywhere. We were lucky as Eric provided us with a driver who chauffered us to anywhere we wanted to go. If you are not a local, I don't think you'd be able to drive there. People there are ruthless!

Here's the busy streets at night. Yea... I love the nights and the beautiful lights that lit up the city.
