Down to the river today

Today I took the earliest train, and ended up at Raffles Place about 15 minutes earlier.  I decided to use the extra time to walk along the riverside.

It's a good thing I did, for I saw a canoe race!  They came from the helix bridge and paddled along the perimeter of the encatchment area past Marina Bay Sands and where I was standing.  After that, they went past Fullerton Bay Hotel, the Merlion, Esplanade and ended at the floating platform.  I even saw them hauling their canoes onto the platform.

All in all, a nice start to the morn.
