I brought two smaller kids to Changi Airport to catch the highly anticipated Pikachu parade πŸ™‚

PIKAs just need to shake left and wriggle right, and crowd would chant “So CUTE! Kawaii!

I am not a fan of PokemonGo. The kids play the game, just not on my phones (kee kee), and I was swayed by Pokemon vibes.

Force is strong at Changi Airport, queues are longer!
Not piloting today, but standing so close to our dream X-Wing fighter is already epic.

Those in the queues can actually cosplay in Starwars costume and take a cockpit photo too, how cool!
(You can dress as a Chewbacca or Imperial Stormtroopers or rebel and pose in the cockpit.)

Never mind if this war did not happen in a galaxy far far away, the Starwars exhibition is happening in the East, at Changi Airport. Starwars Fans are turning up to get up close with X-Wing or TIE fighters.

A life size X-Wing! Look at the fans surrounding the fighter, second floor is packed too.

Pretty cool premiere before Starwars 7 is released. If only the fighter can open its X πŸ™‚

Similar to previous traditions, a bouncing castle has appeared at T3 row 11. This lighthouse is super easy to surmount, just hit the button and see the lights . Did you noticed the Northern Lights (Aurora) backdrop?

Whichever angle you look at the TIE, it sill looks menacing and impressive. Perhaps I am a fan of the Dark Side πŸ™‚

Tips to enjoy Starwars at Changi Airport :
– There are more interactions behind the X-Wing wall at T3, perhaps we can find “Harison Ford and Princess Leia” (We had to skip due to the crowds)
– Starwars exhibition ends 05 Jan 2016
– Every Sat 4pm, Stormtroopers will battle rebels (you need to squeeze to the front, easier for kids than adults)
– Avoid peak hours to get decent selfies with X-Wing or TIE fighters
– All Starwars fans must make one journey to Changi Airport
