Take a look at the directory.
*point to the word [Tourist & Transit Hub]*
There is the meeting place!

As I walked, I saw this banner directing me to the meeting place.

So followed the directions to walk on...

And I reached the Tourist & Transit Hub!

No one was there yet, so took a seat outside the meeting place.
Did some works on my lappie.
Shortly after, Tracy arrived, later with Hong Peng & others.
Went ahead to register our names & particulars in.
We were each given a mini cute City Pass,

and a sticker with the word [VIP] to stick on our shirt to label ourselves. *giggles*

Before we start the journey, let's take a group picture.
[Hong Peng calling out :"Gather gather!". LOL!]

& Here we start our journey to launch the City Pass!

Now....
-~What is a Singapore City Pass?
Answer: A RFID card which can be loaded with admission to attractions, meal vouchers, club events, concert events or even gift vouchers for retail items such as gifts.
It can also be used to control access to seminars, conventions or events
The card is used to control redemptions.
Singapore City Pass is not a pre-paid e-purse in which you put in a value and deduct the value accordingly when you get to attractions and F & B outlets.

As an Experience themed card, we can bundle stops, events and meals into a Singapore Makan Jalan Program card (during our Singapore Food Festival). Tourists will be encouraged to hop on and hop off a hopper bus at stops to partake of local specialties such as chicken rice, chili crabs, laksa on „Makan‟ route, as well as drinks at F&B outlets. Don't you think is WOW cool!?

OH! And currently, from this card, tourists can choose from 8 partners & 2 F&B partners.
In order to make awareness for this City Pass, who mostly have not seen such a card in Asia before, a launch package was created for tourists, they can choose 2 out of 6 attractions for the price of S$39.90! That's so worth the price!!

-~How does the City Pass works?
Answer: Customers purchase the SmarTap Tag either online or at collection counters.
Customers tap the Singapore city Pass at locations they have purchased for.
The system prints out a receipt for the customer to sign and give the customer a chit that lists the remainder items left on the card.
Beside online sales, tourists only need to call our hotline at 6738 3338 / 8188 6000 and a vehicle will be pick them up at any city hotel to our collection point at either Singapore Flyer or Esplanade Exchange at 09:00hrs, 11:00hrs, 13:00hrs and 18:00hrs.
Our FunVee Hoppers, (which you have just ridden on) will also become top up and sales stations. These buses cover 40 hotels and over 30 attractions in town.

[WOW! FORTY hotels and THIRTY attractions!? that's a lot!]
So that's a introduction of what City Pass gonna be about.

So we head out to get the FunVee Hoppers bus.
Took another group picture outside the FunVee Hoppers bus again!

Everyone queue to go..

These are the fun wacky people that went along with me for the event.

Actually, is super hot outside with the afternoon Sun shining on us. Esp when the FunVee Hoppers bus got no shelter outside. O.o
But when the bus started moving, the wind is so strong that it turned as if like a hand that slapped on your face so pain! OUCH! Yet with the wind, the hot weather became a windy one.

The poor camera-man who had to bear the hot weather & do the video-ing!
This appeared in ChannelNewAsia, Channel U & Channel 8, I heard.
Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hllEdXdA2gA

While on the bus, the host introduced to us the places around Singapore as the bus goes the way.
Don't know why but I liked this Flyer picture that I took.

Remember the time when I head off to Flyer for Nat's gathering & birthday session. =]
Never been up there before though. But I liked the shape of the building!
Cool eh!

HAHA! The host said that this looked like a egg.
But I felt that it looked like a flower that just opened up.

Is this a new way to aviod the Sun? LOL!

The creator of this way is Jian Hao!

So shortly after, the bus drove pass St James.

then VivoCity.

We are heading to Sentosa!!!

After we reached, we all went snapping the bus. LOL!
The FunVee Hoppers bus that drove us around

Went into the Dolphin Lagoon.

Saw this sign, so we walked on...

Before we head into the event venue, we took a group picture once again, with the ukulele performers.

The event venue is at Dolphin Suite.

The event began with an entertaining greeting by ukulele performers who welcomed guests up. I think that the ukulele performers are cool. Esp the babes' vocals are great!
Then we enjoyed an engaging Dolphin Show with panoramic views of the performance from the suite.

Shortly after, Ang Eu Khoon, the Managing Director of City Tours did a presentation on what the City Pass is about, future plans about the City Pass.

After the presentation & having some refreshments, we left for UnderWater World.

Is been donkey years since I stepped into there! O.o

Do try out the FunVee Hoppers bus & the City Pass if you wanna!
