Fly..Fly..FLY
i was just chatting with lm about F1 races over msn when she told me about world's tallest ferris wheel in singapore, opening next feb 14. wow. sucha good day to start the wheel going. just as i was telling her about how 'lo-mantic' it would be to be up on the wheel on v-day, to my horror, she told me that the tics are sold out! gosh. that's shockingly FAST!

true enough, http://www.singaporeflyer.com.sg/products_romance.php. the idea of pledging 'i love u' up in the skies is advertised. gone with the idea of having champagne and dinner up on the cable car, now's the ferry's wheel. but the romantic idea does come with an extravagant high cost too!

"Don't repeat tired roses-and-bears gifts for Valentine's Day. How about romancing your partner in the sky with canapés and champagne instead? Book a capsule for Valentine's Day, your wedding or solemnisation. You can even renew your vows from on high. Our flight planners will be pleased to help you with your special moment. Click here to pre-book now!"

do you see this as a marketing trap or really an innovative romantic date idea? i believe when the ad was first published, many couples have rushed to make their reservations. but really, is there a simpler way to say 'i love u'? or do you really need gimmicks to feel loved? is love really about having the right atmosphere, right words and the right dream guy?

Something to think about...
