If that sentence made sense. Okay. If you today decided you wanted to get a ticket at the gate you wouldn't be able to. Also, if you decided to get a ticket via online purchase it would tell you sold out. If you went to the gate and decided you wanted tickets a week later you might get tickets but there is the chance of not getting for a specific day like the hot days weekends and Friday or Monday. It is nice to visit the different theme parks of the specific country to see the local spin on things or ride an attraction specific to that park. I'm not sure if there is a BattleStar Galactica rollercoaster ride at any other Universal Studios around the world. It seems to be always sold out if you go to the ticket counter on that day.

I was going to write about how much I miss maple syrup because my big jug ran out and I really miss having maple syrup with my pancakes. I will probably just bite the bullet and buy a small bottle here at the local Singapore grocery store. Hi Jeff,

Since May, you have no CANADA posts except "filler". At least now you have a COMMENT from the Canadian side. Wow. Since May, you have no CANADA posts except “filler”.

I'm confused about two things. Was it ever sold out? Were there crowds or was it empty? I think it's funny that such an Americanb-style attarction would be popular for "tourists" to the country. I can't imjagine travelling to Singapore to go to an American attraction. Seems odd. Hey. I’m confused about two things. Was it ever sold out? Were there crowds or was it empty?

Maybe the other way is to embarrass users who pop flash. At these performances they usually have spotlights and even live video coverage. The organiser just waits for someone to pop flash and then they spotlight he/she and put up on the big video screen that this behaviour shall not be tolerated. Heck, it could even be a staged flasher that the organiser puts in the audience and then zooms in on. The person is made an example of and the rest of the audience wonders if they'll be the next to be spotlighted.

They most likely don't know how to turn off their camera's flash. The organiser should have staff walk right up to the person and help them turn off their flash.

It depended on what was happening. When lots of action it was 3 secs when not so much movement, like when the parade troop was just standing in the centre it was as much as 6 seconds. Had considered using ND filter and slower shutter because I had the direct sun but in the end did not. I love ISO 3200 at night. The time between each picture ranged was between 3 and 6 seconds.
