A video of the arrival
A video of the water cannon salute; I had focusing issues due to the darkness, so you only got the end of it.

SQ62 at Houston Intercontinental: Arriving at the airport
Myself and one of my colleagues decided to get to the airport to see the arrival of Singapore Airlines (SQ) 62 on March 20, 2008. We left downtown about 9:47p as the 10:20p arrival was delayed until 11:02p.
We arrived at the airport in no time and waited for the flight to arrive. There were about 10 or so people on the roof parking lot at Terminal E with the same idea in mind.
At about 10:50p or so, we saw that it switched runways, so we ran across to the other side to try and get a shot. Here you can see the airport entrance and the ticket counter. At this link, you can see pictures of the airplane's arrival.
