From now ’til Christmas, we are celebrating here with a special Christmas tree a day over a course of 12 days.

If you visit Ngee Ann City at Christmas, there is one towering sight you definitely can’t miss. The giant flagship tree at the mall stands at a height of over four storeys tall. It kick-starts my Christmas Tree of the Day series for 2009!

Shiny pink and gold baubles adorn the tree on all sides. Yet, it is the giant pink bow wrapped ’round the tree that makes it pop.

Here’s a snapshot of the setting up in progress.

From far, the tree looks like a present!

    saw that tree recently on the way to a client meeting. there was a 2-3 metre invisible boundary around that tree. i’m pretty sure there had to be a ‘STOP’ sign somewhere on the tree. just haven’t found it yet…

    maybe it’s just me. i get really ticked off when the person in front stops suddenly so they can take pictures of the tree. take evasive action and you walk right into someone else’s path. don’t take evasive action and you slam right into them.

    end up, you get stared down with that “watch where you going look!”. sometimes, i just want slap these idiots in the back of their heads and say “get in the pit lane!”. Or maybe i should just walk right into them; that they lose grip of their precious camera and… “my camera!!!” whatever…

    ok, that was mean. hey, maybe i’m mean only to idiots? ok, i’m mean no matter.

      Hehe many people may be just “blur”, get caught up in the moment and forget there are others around.

      Look out for more trees. 12 for 2009!

      P.S. There are a couple more trees at Ngee Ann City that I’m going to feature. Here’s one with Ferrero Rochers!

    The Suntec City tree came up ridiculously early, if you’ve noticed. It was up even before Halloween!

      That IS early! lol! Looks like someone couldn’t wait for Christmas to arrive :) Is it the tree at the taxi stand outside Carrefour or the big one you see when you exit from the MRT station?

      I just checked my photo collection. Raffles City had their Christmas up before Halloween, too!
