Pics of Marina Bay Sands!!!

Here are some pics guys! This is the EPIC hotel we are racing up for it's grand opening... cant wait!!!
As a side note my flight from Guilin to Hong Kong was delayed for ages so I missed my connecting flight to Singapore so now I am stuck in Hong Kong Airport for the night surfing the internet, playing my guitar and wishing I was in my comfy bed in Singapore... argh!!! Oh well, I will be there tomorrow!

Marina Bay Sands Singapore - Opening Celebration!!!

So there I am sitting in a village in rural China minding my own business when my good friend Matt drops me an email... "Duncan, would you like to come race up a massive hotel via a 100m glass layback then party with a whole heap of amzing climbers from around the world...?"... Ummmm, let me check my schedule Matt haha! Thus was my addition to the Commonwealth Team for the Marina Bay Sands - World Championship Climb to the Sands SkyPark!!! I will be competing in a team with Mayan Smith-Gobat, an amazingly talented female climber from New Zealand and the larrakin himself, Tim Emmett from the UK. It's going to be absolutely amazing fun! Can't wait for my flight to Singapore tomorrow!!!
It is being filmed by ESPN (see the trailer on youtube in the links below) and will be a massive media show so I will let you all know when the documentary they are doing about it is out :)
