Some say it’s difficult to experience stuff in Singapore. It’s not true – we have TONS of stuff for you to do – just mouse over that attractive white tab on the top labeled ‘Things To Do’. Now, you can add taking a FREE a hot air balloon from now till 16 June to that list. The TSL team took a trip up the hot air balloon at the Sports Hub.
It’s a happening place, no doubt. If you’ve been to the Sports Hub for the SEA Games, you’ll be all too familiar with the carnival atmosphere in and around the Sports Hub during these few weeks. There are loads of games and activities for the little ones, including a water soccer mini-game, miniature golf courses and free Milo. We couldn’t turn down the last one.
There was a light drizzle, so the queue wasn’t very long. After a short wait, the friendly ground crew held down the balloon basket and ushered us in. To ensure the balloon didn’t inadvertently liftoff, we had to climb into the basket before the previous passengers could alight. Yes, you have to climb in – there’s no magical door that swings open as it wouldn’t be safe when the balloon’s in mid air.
Note: Passengers have to be at least 18 years old and 1.4 metres tall. The balloon will be open until the 16th from 8-10am and 5-8pm and will be closed during the closing ceremony.
