Sentosa

Just back from Sentosa. Spend 3 days and 2 nights there at Shangri-La Rasa, with my younger sis and my mum. We visited virtually every tourist attraction there, taking many rides on the Red, Blue and Yellow Line Buses(and the monorail too).


There were some disappointments as well. Volcanoland is officially dead in my opinion. A ghost of its lively past, pools of stagnant water were everywhere. Many interesting programmes held at Volcanoland were removed. In fact, it was so bad that we were the only tourists to arrive there.
Moral of story: Do not visit Volcanoland; its a waste of money


Food there was also daylight robbery. A plate of chicken rice can cost up to $10. I grudgingly ate every morsel of rice to ensure no wastage.


Went to the Dolphin Lagoon for the first time. Despite the sweltering heat, the pink dolphins performed their best, earning applause from us. The dolphins feel soft to the touch.


We visited many more attractions, but the details would probably bore you. Suffice to say, we returned home tired but happy.
