RISE and SHINE!
Today is my second morning here in Singapore! And I
just love the sunny and breezy weather here!
So after an afternoon mall strolling yesterday, we’re
set to go for an exciting island hopping in Sentosa!

| Welcome to Sentosa! |
Just an hour away from Loyang Rise (the place where
we are staying) is Sentosa, an
idyllic resort island with pristine white beaches, world-class attractions and
must-try activities.
But before our Sentosa Isalnd tour, we just had
some stop overs!
A visit at the Catholic
Church in Singapore...

NOW IT’S TIME TO GO AT SENTOSA ISLAND!
Since the Sentosa Island is too big to travel in
just one day, we decided to visit few selected areas.
From VivoCity Mall, we rode the Sentosa Express. This is one of the three public transport services that will give you easy access to Sentosa (the other two are via MRT or public buses). Here, the passengers can get a good view of Sentosa’s main attractions like Resorts World
Sentosa (which is home to Universal Studios Singapore) while on the ride.

And we’re finally here in PALAWAN BEACH! (Nope, this is not the Philippine island in Mindanao that you’re thinking).

Welcome to Palawan Beach, a pristine white sand beach
which boasts a scenic tapestry of green flora. With a suspension bridge linking
beach-goers to the Southernmost Point of
Continental Asia, Palawan Beach is a must-see destination for an exciting
island getaway!
 |
| This sign assures me that I'm really in the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia! |
The Palawan
Amphitheatre holds a Bird Show where guests can interact with intelligent and adorable aerial
animals!

What better way to know the island than to taste its delicious food treats? So here's a pizza and
Movenpick ice cream for snacks!!!

NEXT STOP… The SKYRIDE
and SKYLINE LUGE SENTOSA!!!

| The Skyride. WEE!!! |
Part go-cart, part toboggan, the Luge offers a
truly fun and unique outdoor experience suitable for those who love
slight-extreme-on-the-go adventure! You can navigate down either on the
650-metre Jungle Trail or 688-metre Dragon Trail. There’s also a camera in one
of the stop points to capture your moment!

SONGS OF THE
SEA!
Time to get close with nature with Songs of the Sea!
It was a one-of-a-kind show with a live cast, dramatic effects and colorful pyrotechnics. Be mesmerized with water jets, flame bursts, lasers and
captivating music!

Now, we’re done with our Sentosa tour Part One. Time to go home and eat some yummy dinner!
Tomorrow, we’ll have a laid back tour in Singapore’s most famous shopping district --- The ORCHARD ROAD!!!
