(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! ^^

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

This is the map nearby the MRT station. This map proved very useful to us! ^^
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci32.jpg)
Useful to an extent, though we walked to the Science Centre in the end...
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci31.jpg)
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

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](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci28.jpg)
Some kind of display, huh? But wait! What is that?...
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci27.jpg)
Ah...kind of self-explanatory, right?
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci26.jpg)
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](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci25.jpg)
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](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci24.jpg)
This is an Wooden Bridge designed by Leonardo Da Vinci himself. :o
(Notice the smaller version next to it, so cute...)
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci22.jpg)
The Vitruvian Man displayed at the Entrance. Read up on the Internet if you have no idea what that is! ^^
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci23.jpg)
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](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci21.jpg)
This is proof of our entry into the exhibition! Fear the fellowship of "DV"!!! lols....
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci20.jpg)
The compound when you exit.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci19.jpg)
Took a photo with Johnston and Ronald! How nice of him to pose for us! (lols...)
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci18.jpg)
It is spoiled. Pity.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci17.jpg)
That's where we went after the exhibition.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci16.jpg)
I think this is supposed to work when the sun is up, but I don't think it's working.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci13.jpg)
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](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci9.jpg)
Water Mill. No water coming out from above though. Wonder what went wrong.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci10.jpg)
Following the Water Mill, gives you this.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci7.jpg)
Figured this would be spinning if the Mill is working.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci11.jpg)
Erm...I forgot what is this...(opps!)
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci1.jpg)
That would be Johnston and I walking or exploring around...
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci4.jpg)
Did you know SunDials can be used for Pull-up? I didn't. :p
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci3.jpg)
Even so, it's fun to do so. ^^
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci6.jpg)
A massive network of sound pipes which leads to everywhere and nowhere. Hahas...
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci14.jpg)
A bigger version(without the pipes) would be this! :D
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci15.jpg)
Up-close picture of Johnston listening. O.o
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci12.jpg)
That would be me.
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci8.jpg)
You should try this, if you can pedal without getting exhausted. I would say you're Pro!
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci5.jpg)
Emelia standing on a rolling wheel!!!
![Photobucket](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s182/leroylim20/Journal/DaVinci%202009/DaVinci2.jpg)
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! ^^
