such great heights

Do you have a fear of heights? Would any of the places shown above scare you just a little? A friend recently celebrated her birthday at the Marina Bay Sands hotel in Singapore featured in the top two photos. Isn't that infinity pool amazing?
What's the bravest thing you've done involving heights? The craziest thing we've done was to hike to the peak of a local mountain in snowshoes. At one point the hike was so steep we had to strap the snowshoes to our hands to dig into the hill, like using ice picks. It wasn't one of our better decisions.
