Trips to Singapore Sentosa Island

Ever realized, most of my posts for Singapore were only post when after my second visit? Know why? That is because I'm try to collect some more information and catch some more nice shooting for my reader. (Even I have just a little readers.) For this lesson, i gonna talk about my visits to Singapore most famous tourism place, which is Sentosa Island.
Sentosa Island, is located at Singapore south part. Visitors may getting there by Sentosa Express, cable car, by bus or own driving. Beside using own car, the remain transports can get at HarbourFront. From the city, you may use LRT to Vivo City, a complex that at HarbourFront. Then you may choose your favorite transportation to there. I went there by Sentosa Express, which only cost me 3SGD for return trip.
Well, we have not yet complete our visit to every part at there cause some part will charge for entrance fees. The fewer that i have visit are the Southrnmost point of COntinental Asia, the Merlion, SIlosa Beach, the Dolphin Lagoon, the Underwater World, the Animal and Bird Encounter and the beach station (The Song of the Sea show).
If you wanna get from a station to another station or place, you may choose use an air-cond bus or
mini bus (I have to mention here, it is free.)
or
the open air bus ( This one also absolutely free.)
or
drive your own car. (You have to pay your own petrol lo... Beside, is not this ancient car ya, this car is a model for people to take photo only.)
The Merlion park, is the symbol that represent Singapore. It combined of lion head and fish body, so it known as Merlion.
You may enter the Merlion to its upper level. Tourist may climb there to its mouth or head for sightseeing. Entrance fee of 8SGD will be charged to every visitor. There are some garden or park around here, if you are not interest or when you are waiting for you friend(s), you may have a walk at there.

This cartoon house reminds me when I was a kid, there is a cartoon show. It about about a blue little spirit, they are staying in either a mushroom house or a house like this.

Even the characters for this picture are ugly, ( I guessed Irene also agrees with me.) but with the great scene here. The ugly one also can become look better.

Remember when we were study, there was a story that a cunning fox try to cheat the food from a crow. Wei Kiat is trying to change the history of the story. (Wei Kiat: Don't open your mouth! Else your food will drop.)

There is something that I have to say out here when the first trip (me, Wei Kiat and Irene) to Sentosa. Irene seen desperate with the big banana at the bus interchange at The Images Of Singapore.
We then had a walk at the Siloso Beach.

This picture was taken at Siloso Beach, the safety guard is great enough. There will be few guards at there look after the visitors.

At the beach side, visitors may choose to play valley ball as entertainment. Look, there are few Korean boys playing valley ball at there.

The bus that quite famous using during 70th have been changed to become an ice cream stall. I really believe and envy with their creative idea. This indirectly support our recycle action.

* Feel like I'm inside the planet. The light on the floor keep shining by deferent color. This made me feel like
My second trip was go with Wei Kiat again, but Irene can't make it since she needs to do her job. We go there with have a date with Shawn and Wei Sian, but they reached later than us.
My second trip main purpose was visit to the underwater world. Underwater world located at the Siloso Point. The entrance fee is 19.90 SGD which include the entrance to the Dolphin Lagoon. When me and Wei Kiat were going inside, it accurately the time they feeding the fish.
Look, the lady is feeding the fish.

The biggest non-sea fish which come from Amazon. I can reach around 2 metres long. It however doesn't fierce at all.

From the mirror, you can see the fish swimming around. These fish can't get easily when you at seaside. Some of them were come from deep sea.

Do you know what is this? This call Clione Lumacina. This creature live in the 600 meters sea at north ocean. It can self sex and produce young. They expecting life is two years.

Have you see anything from this picture beside the sea grass? The yellow thing is actually a sea horse. It look alike the plant inside the sea. This is because they can protect themselves from being realised by their enemy.

This is the world biggest crab. It grows at Japan. A normal crab can be around 30 centimeters from its lef legs to right legs but this crab can reaches 1.8 meters. From far look, you might thought it is a big spider.

Feel like I really in the sea when I was inside the Underwater World.

You can put your hand inside the water to touch the fish at this pool. The fish may swim over here and touch your hand with its body.
Come out from the Underwater World, we then took bus to the Dolphin lagoon. We have reached there one hour earlier. So we only take shelter under the tree. However, we got sunburn when we back then and Wei Kiat has fell faint at the night.

During the show, the trainer will caught some audiences for the show. After the show, visitor may take picture with the Pink Dolphin with the cost 15 SGD photo coupon.
Shawn and Wei Sian reached there when we were enjoying the Dolphin show. We then go meet them at Pahlawan Beach. However, again we stopped at the Animal and Bird Encounter at the half way meet them.

Before the show start, we had chance go to the Close Encounter and taking picture with the birds.

After the show, again audiences may take picture with the animal. Look, Wei Kiat is touching the Husky. Husky, is a type of wolf, it however has changes tame after a period of train.

When i was taking this photo. I was really nerves, cause the eagle look fierce and it keep move to my side. Luckily I wasn't hurt.

Before any talk about this picture, I need to mention first, that one is a lady. But she really dark. Taking with a yellow anaconda. I planned to hold it for photo taking but been stopped.
Before go for the Song of the Sea show, we have met Shawn and Wei Sian at the Southernmost Point of the Continental Asia.


Hey, don't you think this photo look like 70th? The black shirt guy is Wei Sian, me and him just just first time meet. Another guy is Shawn. Shawn, is my online game friend. I knew him last year when we were playing online game-Maple Story.
We then go for the Song of the Sea show. The show will only has during night. This show come with live cast and dramatic effects like pyrotechnics water jets, brilliant lasers, special computer imaging, stunning flame bursts and captivating music. I guessed those who ever enjoy it sure will not forget about it.


See, this really amazing! You can see a smiling face at the sky. I heard that this project cost millions dollars and it is currently the world only one. But it really worth for the six dollar entrance fee.
At the end, I had spent totally 31.90SGD for second trip. the entrance ticket for Underwater World and Dolphin Lagoon cost me 19.90SGD, the Song of the Sea 6SGD and the return ticket from Vivo City to Sentosa Island for 3SGD.


Another thing i never understand. What is the notice below set for for?

Can some one explain for me? No flash light. Five languages have wrote on the notice board. But is it all the people blind or what? People around near this notice board keep using flash to catching photo. This also happened during the show of Songs of the Sea. Before the show, there are MANY TIMES announced that DO NOT using flash by both Chinese and English languages. but there still many flash photo taking. For my conclusion, most of the people not only have reading problem but also listening and understanding problem.
Besides, when we were at the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia, we has saw this.

Some one have put a shorts on the statue!
