Well, that's the recipe for a Singapore Sling, so, Singapore?

Aye Weyland has it. Its the Singapore Flyer. In a typical Singaporean show of ostentatiousness (is that a word :| ) they deliberately built it to trump the London one.

Unfortunately the country has no AWPs/ SWPs for the moment so its been a bit of cold turkey for me but top holiday nonetheless.
