I spent 10 hours at Sentosa today.
Damn tired now.

Lemme eat, rest, shower, arrange the pics, then report.

Tired siah!!!


This was what I found at Sentosa this morning.


My day started at the 1st Stop: Sentosa Golf Club.
I also found a nice hangout spot in the Club.


2nd Stop: Imbiah Lookout Point

Take the cable car from Mount Faber and you'll end up here.


FWAH!! The Carlsberg Sky Tower is so damn tall!!


It was obviously a tourist trap, but I couldn't help feeling excited!!
Highly successful tourist trap, I must say.
Then again... I is easily excited mah!!


I is inside oredi!!
I is so trapped!!!
EEEEeeeeeee!!! So exciting!!!


The views from the Sky Tower.




3rd Stop: The Luge

YAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!
I've always wanted to try this!!!


ARE YOU READY?!!!!


Eh... Wait...
It's a dangerous activity, ok!!
Must be screened first!!

You cannot ride the Luge, if you are not at least 110cm.


If your height suffices, then...
Have you had surgery recently?
Do you have a heart problem?
Neck injury? Spine injury? Epilepsy? Pregnant?!!
HAR HAR HAR?!!


Ok, if you are tall enough and your health condition is ok, then read this!!! Yes!!
Read EVERYTHING!!!


Finally... You may put on your helmet.


And the instructor will give you a 1-minute quickie briefing.


Then a chop on your hand which says: Passed!!
This must be the easiest attempt to pass anything in Singapore!!


And you'll be on your way!!
WOO HOO!!!
I thought I was gonna crash while taking the corner.
But I is steady!!


Nah... The Price of (mini) Thrill.


And at the end of the Luge ride, you'll see this.
Where the new water fountain show will be in time to come.
Yes.
The show will be rising from the sea.
Cool rite!!!


He seems to be enjoying himself too!! =))
And those are his sister's arms.


At the same location, you will also find the express train which links Sentosa to Vivocity.
It will be operational when Vivocity is ready next year, I think.


Because we had to make our way back up, the Chair Lift was the only way. Jialat oredi la!! =_=
Coz I confirmed today that I is afraid of heights!!!


IT'S FREAKING HIGH, CAN?!!!


My legs were dangling!!
And to make things worse, the wind started to attack the flimsy lift.


WAH LAU!!
Can see how small the lady on the ground is or not?!!!
I was trying to act busy by taking pics to mask my fear.
Noo Nee Noo Nee Noo


4th Stop: Sentosa 4D Magix



I caught the guy at the door by surprise.
He was like,"Oi!! I wasn't smiling!! Take again!!"
Heh heh heh!!


The experience was quite cool.
The short movie had bees and stuff coming at you.
Gases, wind and water were also part of the experience.

Just in case you are wondering why the pics are so blurred...
It's because this is what you will see without these magical glasses.


Nah... The Price of 4D. <-- HAHAHAHAHA!!!


Just before the last stop, I saw Mr Merlion.
Someone commented that he looked as if he was balding.
Heh heh heh...
[Those are people on his head.]


Anyway, did you know that with your entrance fee to go up the Merlion, you would have a lucky dip at the end of the trip?
It's a Sure Win!!
You'll get a souvenir!! <-- It comes in various forms of Mr Merlion. =)))

5th Stop: Images of Singapore


It's an interactive museum showcasing the history of Singapore in a somewhat propaganda-ish manner.

It starts with the story of these 4 men.
They actually move and talk to one another.


And this ghostly halographic chick tells the story.


Check out the figures!! Fucking scary!!
The one on the left is supposed to be a matchmaker, ok!!
The other one is Mr Alexander Guthrie.


There was this particular section of the museum which struck me real hard.
It was a video of the Japanese Occupation.
I dun wanna talk about it. =_=

At the end of the long 10 hours, one can do with a chilled mug of beer at the Sky Bar while enjoying the Singapore Skyline.


FWAH... It must have been like 3-4 years since I last spent any time on Sentosa.
I must say Sentosa has changed and is still in the making. <-- With the new IR and stuff.

I think the next time Mooiness comes to Singapore, I will bring him there.
And I will definitely get this. <-- Very useful!!

I love the way she introduced Sentosa of Singapore ( I couldn't write it better ),
so I imported her blog here to share with my friends.
