6:45 AM - Buzzzzzz. Wifey's mobile Alarm Rings
I woke up and ask my wifey to wake up and get ready for the City Tour.
Check my mobile and the time is
9:15!!! Shock!!! Another check at watch and time is 9.16!!!
Cut to Previous night. I am too lazy to put alarm on my mobile and so better half sets the alarm on her's. But the Mobile's clock was not re-set to the Singapore Time.
Call up the reception to check if someone was waiting to pick us up, response was negative.
So, the real picture was that the Trip's bus had left us. We missed the City Tour :(
Thought of a plan (Jugaad Mind). Called up the local travel agent contact(who was the organiser of this tour) and told him that we could not come as son was unwell, and if possible we be put on the Next Day's trip. Luckily, she agreed.
With some relief, thought of getting the B'fast first and plan the rest of the day at the table.
Had a sumptous b'fast at the Hotel and planned to visit the Sentosa island.
Also came across this distinctive looking Fruit (probably spelt Ramabutta)
Left the hotel at 10.30AM, took a cab to VivoCity(Mall).
Beautiful outside deck at Vivocity.
Purchased the tickets for "The Underwater World" and "The Songs of the Sea" show for later in the evening.
My kid is very much in love with the Metro/MRT's, so I preferred them an my means of Transport as much as I could. So, took the Sentosa Express, enjoyed the ride and the views from the Vivo City and got down at Imbiah Station.
Sentosa has so much to see that a day is nothing to explore its beauty.
The main attractions that we covered:
1. Underwater World
2. The Dolphin and the Sea Lion's show. Frankly we liked the Sea Lion's more than the Dolphins
3. Birds of the Prey Show
4. Palawan Beach
5. Songs of the Sea
6. The Merlion Walk
7. Roaming Around
Getting around the Huge Island was quite comfortable, thanks to the Elevators and the Buses and the MRT. All these were boon specially when you are with kids.
