Sentosa

Dear and me went to Sentosa today! We went there for sight-seeing, machiam like tourists. Hehe.. Our target was to have a taste of getting on the Chairlift and the Underwater World and Dolphin Lagoon! Heck it's pricey! 19 bucks for entry to both!

We parked at the beach carpark and the first target that came along our way was the chairlift. We choose to go up the Imbiah lookout via Chairlift and come back down by the Luge ride. Pretty exciting the Luge ride, downslope all the way and there were scary kids riding down the slopes at lightning speed. Dear likes the Luge ride! And she looks cute wearing the helmet.. haha.

On our way next to Underwater world, we passed by an animal show. A monkey that resembles Baboon. We took pics with one of them. Well taken, the pics. The monkey seemed to like you more than me! The monkey was not attentive to the camera when it was my turn, but she looked at the camera when she took the pic with you!! Grrr!!! Seems like you really have certain charm towards monkeys huh? Hmmm!

We then walked our way to the Underwater world!! We met a Japanese tourist nearing the ticketing booth, and he hurriedly offered to give us 2 complimentary tickets, quickly explaining that he did not have enough time to stay. Before the both of us could understand what he was trying to say, he shoved the tickets into our hands and went off. Haha. It turns out that the tickets he gave us, had the Dolphin Lagoon Entry portion torn off already. What's left was the Underwater world entry portion. Meaning, we actually earned free entry to Underwater World.

It was not as impressive as we expected it to be. Dear have not been here before(!!) and i so badly want to bring her here. It's somewhat disappointing. I doubt they have 2500 types of sea creatures which they boast? It didn't seemed this boring when i came here a few years back. Or maybe I was just a little kid then, and was easily fasinated? Hehe..

The weather was good and hot, I could feel the skin on my face tightening. We had a good lunch at air-conditioned Sakae, whew. We planned to go to Dolphin Lagoon after lunch. The next show dolphin show was at 3:30pm, but by the time we finished our lunch, it was already 3:15pm. So we decided to watch the 5:30pm one. We did not want to rush through lunch mah, therefore eat leisurely loh. Dun scold me ah dear! My stomach more important than dolphin! :D

Nothing much to shop around the beach shops. Billabong, some beach wear labels, eateries. But seriously it has changed quite a lot since the olden days. It's now very much developed and hip is the word.

We were early at the Dolphin place. About an hour before the showtime. We drank coffee and soft drink and passed time. We even took little naps. Tired after the day's event and also sitting in the sun makes us drowsy.

The pink dolphins looked fat. The show wasn't too bad, but the BKK dolphins performed more stunts, although we couldn't understand Thai. Dear seemed to have a very enjoyable time clicking away with the camera. Or is it that i didn't offer to take over the task? :D

Quickly sent dear home after that, if not princess and prince will be starving. Am home now, tired and having a minor headache... must be getting sick after being deprived of my baby. I just had a bowl of maggie mee... and will go rest and sms my love after this blog. Tata.
