Da Vinci Exhibition @ S'pore Sci Centre

Wednesday, June 10, 2009
Hey, do you recall what I said on the earlier post on "11 June 2009"?
(Update: I shift the posting date for this, so sorry if it seems that I posted in the future)
Well, the photos for the "Da Vinci Exhibition @ S'pore Sci Centre" have finally arrived. Without further ado...*

First and foremost, I would like to thank our photographer, Emelia Tang, who so generously passed me the pictures! ^^
Photobucket
In this picture, she's listening to an Ipod. :)

Right, on the way to the Science Centre from the MRT station nearby, we have no idea how to reach the Science Centre. So we sort of consulted the guide. :p
Photobucket
This is the map nearby the MRT station. This map proved very useful to us! ^^

Photobucket
Useful to an extent, though we walked to the Science Centre in the end...

Photobucket
And that's us judging the distance from the MRT Station to the Science Centre. That was when we're deciding whether to take a bus there or just walk.

Emelia commented that we looked like tourists in the photo. :o


Photobucket
This picture was taken secretly by Emelia!!! O.o

So we walked and the first thing we saw when we reached the Science Centre was...
Photobucket
Some kind of display, huh? But wait! What is that?...

Photobucket
Ah...kind of self-explanatory, right?

Photobucket
Woah! A T-rex! Sound included too! How cool is that? Pity it can turn its head to face you. (that would be way scary...hahas)


Walking up, we saw something amusing...
Photobucket
Behold! At first glance, you see children playing in there(which is nothing wrong). But I doubt anyone would notice that no one is allowed to play in the water containers....O.o

Entering the building which contains the exhibition hall, we saw a preview of what's in store for us...
Photobucket
This is an Wooden Bridge designed by Leonardo Da Vinci himself. :o
(Notice the smaller version next to it, so cute...)

Photobucket
The Vitruvian Man displayed at the Entrance. Read up on the Internet if you have no idea what that is! ^^

Photobucket
And so we go! Into the Exhibition Hall!!!

Unfortunately, no photo-taking are allowed inside, so we just have to skip to photos that were taken after we left the exhibition hall...

Photobucket
This is proof of our entry into the exhibition! Fear the fellowship of "DV"!!! lols....

Photobucket
The compound when you exit.

Photobucket
Took a photo with Johnston and Ronald! How nice of him to pose for us! (lols...)

Photobucket
It is spoiled. Pity.

Photobucket
That's where we went after the exhibition.

Photobucket
I think this is supposed to work when the sun is up, but I don't think it's working.

Photobucket
A Hydro-Pump that requires you to rotate it to work. Be careful though, Johnston turned it too fast and accidentally splashed out water onto Emelia. LOL!

Photobucket
Water Mill. No water coming out from above though. Wonder what went wrong.

Photobucket
Following the Water Mill, gives you this.

Photobucket
Figured this would be spinning if the Mill is working.

Photobucket
Erm...I forgot what is this...(opps!)

Photobucket
That would be Johnston and I walking or exploring around...

Photobucket
Did you know SunDials can be used for Pull-up? I didn't. :p

Photobucket
Even so, it's fun to do so. ^^

Photobucket
A massive network of sound pipes which leads to everywhere and nowhere. Hahas...

Photobucket
A bigger version(without the pipes) would be this! :D

Photobucket
Up-close picture of Johnston listening. O.o

Photobucket
That would be me.

Photobucket
You should try this, if you can pedal without getting exhausted. I would say you're Pro!

Photobucket
Emelia standing on a rolling wheel!!!

Photobucket
Finally, this is called the "Fireball". I can see why. Call a couple of your friends to spin you and lift up a leg! You will thrown out like a fireball! (That's what happened to me, spit out from the vortex)

Johnston was safe, he did not lift his leg up. :p
Emelia was taking picture, and hence the safest. Hahas...

This concludes our journey in Singapore Science center. I hope you enjoyed reading this! ^^
