This is the Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. Or, as Lily calls it when she forgets the name, "The Houses With the Boat On Top." When I look at it, I see a glittering casino and it's hard not to think about money - all the money that the silly people are losing inside the casino to pay for the construction of the silly roof boat. The nice thing is, I also get to see it through Lily's eyes - it transforms into a truly magical place. This is where we saw the Lion King musical. The shopping mall has a pond through the middle where a gondolier takes people for rides, as well as an open ice skating rink on one end. You can actually sit and have lunch and watch people ice skate. There is also a boat on top of the buildings! A boat! How did it get there?? It's actually called the Sky Park. More than 50 floors up, it has an amazing view of the city, as well as a restaurants, bars and the hotel infinity pool. Pretty magical.
